is it worth wearing the garmin watch just at night

I was given an Apple Watch and like it a lot, except for nighttime metrics - hrv is way off. I wear the AW during the day and for my daily runs. I like the celluar part of it so I do not have to carry my phone all day.

But I do like the nighttime metrics on my Garmin Watch, especially HRV (the AW hrv are all over the place from 25 - 380) If I wear the Garmin FR 955 just at night (I know overkill) I will get sleep hours and stages, along with resting heart rate.. Will my sleep score be accurate? Also, will body battery aand training readiness have any use for me?

i think you will get HRV, RHR and sleep score. but it won't properly calculate body battery and training readiness for you since those are looking beyond sleep stats and are adjusting throughout the day…

Garmin watches are designed to be worn 24/7.

I know that but that is a simple answer. As stated, I am not going to wear it 24/7. I know sleep and stages, along with nighttime hrv readings will be corret, I just want to know how much sleep score, body battery, and training readiness will be useful.
