Best Apple Watch for heart monitoring? (alien.top)

My cardiologist suggested that I get an apple watch to monitor my heart rate since I have an arrhythmia. I wanted to ask what model would be best/ would suffice for heart rate monitoring/fitness.

I am a medical doctor living a relatively sedentary lifestyle and is not very keen on any added features that would add to my anxiety like notifications popping up. My forearms are pretty slim and would prefer a watch that isn’t too big as well.

Your help would be much appreciated.

Im not an expert but I don’t think the ecg improves as the models and chips do. If budget is no issue buy the watch you want. If you want to keep price down the 7 or 8 have good sales and will do what you need. I just purchased a stainless steel 7 about 6 months ago on sale and would rather that than an aluminum 9 series. PS I have been using the ecg on mine as per cardiologists recommendation for 3 years now starting with the 6 series.
