I assume you mean notifications as in LTE? Every GPS watch has ability to get notifications.

I like my Fitbit Charge. It’s very minimalist and does all of these things.

I'm a runner and use my Apple watch for fitness tracking and everyday use. It's been great for years.

Apple watch is the best thing if you don't want to have your phone attached to you. Just have to pay for the watch plan.

I'm a Garmin fan. I have a Vivoactive that I like. The Fenix line is the best. Best thing is that the battery last unlike having to charge nightly like an Apple.

I run with a Samsung Galaxy watch...3 I think. Works fine. Strava app, sometimes just Samsung health for walks and hikes.

Coros Pace 3 is what I have. You get the notifications on it, but it’s not a smart watch. Exactly what I wanted. Battery last for about 3 weeks.

I have the Forerunner 255, but it sounds a lot like the Pace 3 and I got mine for the same reasons as well. Not a “smart” watch but I get the notifications on there that I want/need and works great as a running watch.
