Garmin Instinct, Rugged Outdoor Watch with GPS, Features GLONASS and Galileo, Heart Rate Monitoring and 3-axis Compass, Altitude, Barometer, etc.
You should also be able to PM, e.g. at MEC, and get their better Rocksolid warranty at no extra cost.
While this watch doesn't have all the features of something like Fenix, it's a great watch for activities like hiking, walking, cycling as long as you don't need Fenix-like functionality. As far as I can tell there's nothing similar at this price point, especially if you need ABC functions like altimeter.
Battery life is 14 days without GPS and 16 hours with. That's also better than the vast majority of other smartwatches, even those that cost several times as much.
If you need even longer battery life the Solar version of this watch is also on sale for $359 at Amazon Garmin Solar-Powered Rugged Outdoor Smartwatch and MEC Garmin Instinct Solar.
Also if you have a practical way to buy in the US, amazon.com sells the Solar for US$250 ~CA$315 Garmin Instinct Solar, Rugged Outdoor Smartwatch with Solar Charging Capabilities, Built-in Sports Apps and Health Monitoring, Graphite
