Fossil Gen5 - only need time and track steps (maybe sleep). What must I have turned on?

Hi,
I have a Fossil Gen 5 watch (Carlye). I only care about the Time and counting my Steps. I want this data tracked in Google Fit. Trying to get max battery time too. So I am turning off everything that is not needed. If I only want Steps (not workouts) just walking about doing normal day to day activities, do I have to have "track physical activity" turned on in wear os google fit app for this? Sensors? ?
What is the bare minimum I must have turned on for Steps to count?
Thanks
 
I've used Google Fit on my phone in the past without a watch and it kept track of steps
