I am looking to buy a Smartwach that also measures blood pressure and heart rate.
Can anyone recommend me a good device on Aliexpress?
Thanks a lot!

blood pressure generally requires something to apply pressure to your arm - it needs to measure the relative pushback when your heart tries to pump blood. No watches currently do this - at least not without some sort of cuff to measure blood pressure. Also note that because it involves taking pressure, it might actually drain too much power to fit into a portable device like a watch.
Some watches offer Saturated O2 measurement which might be helpful.
Let me know if you find something - as I'm interested too
You get what you paid for, for something medical i would buy through a proper shop e.g. your local chemist or major retailers such as sold by Amazon. It is not worth it if you get a dodgy item that give you a false reading and false sense of that your blood pressure and heart rate is good.
In another words, dont cheap out when it comes to health, its not worth it.
As others have said I wouldn't expect any accuracy from cheap chinese wearables, they're more for novelty value only..
There are a few that require calibration with a cuff including the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 (in some markets) and a heap on AliExpress. These work by inferring blood pressure using other sensors within 24 hours of calibrating with a cuff measurement. It's not as accurate but might be useful as a trend (going up or going down).
There are a couple with a built in cuff that are actually measuring blood pressure:

And this Omron watch which is medical grade from a leading blood pressure monitor maker:
