Navigation on the bicycle? (lemm.ee)

I currently have an iPhone 13 Pro and want to buy a bicycle after moving to a new city. Do you recommend a phone holder for my bike or Apple Watch for navigation purposes? I don’t own a watch yet but I can see how it would make sense on a bicycle. I just don’t know which solution is best. I probably would have to bring my phone regardless. Do you guys have any recommendations or suggestions or experience with navigating using the Apple Watch on a bicycle? I read the GPS quality on a watch can change depending on the mode. Then again I probably would bring my phone anyway and maybe the watch can use the phone gps signal.

I think a phone holder with an always on big screen that you can keep glancing at will be much better than a mini map on your wrist that you need to raise your hand and see.

Highly recommend one of the aluminum ones that have a screw and thumb wheel to tighten - the only ones that I’ve found to hold up to being bounced around
