CitizenCitizen CZ Smart Gen 1 Hybrid smartwatch 44mm, Continuous Heart Rate Tracking, Fitness Activity, Golf App, Displays Notifications and Messages, Bluetooth Connection, 15 Day Battery Life

So I’m writing this review about 1 year after I purchased this watch. I read reviews of people who just bought or had it for a month or two, so I decided to wait to give an opinion after much use.I bought the watch because I wanted to keep track of my sleep and activity, but I also wanted an analog watch, I was looking for the best of both worlds. And I wanted the watch to be nice looking.So, about the watch. It’s a nice watch, kinda sporty looking which was ok. It took a little bit to figure out how to do things as it did not come with a manual. But once I figured out what app I needed to download I was set to go.The app offers different faces and different setups where you can display what information you want. It also offers some other “things” like sports scores and such, but I was not able to figure that out and quite understand what to do or anything like that. That’s ok, those are not things I need.I have several other Citizen watches which I love. This watch is no different. I wear this for work, I wear it almost every day, so it gets used a lot. The battery life was quite surprising as right out of the box it was lasting 20-21 days. The charge only takes an hour or two, so I could charge it at night after work. A year later and it’s not lasting quite as long, but still a decent amount of time. I just charged it and will come back and update how long the battery is lasting now, as I forgot to check before writing this review.So far, the rubber strap is great. I would recommend taking it off a few hours a day as the rubber may affect your skin underneath over time.The last thing I would recommend is a screen protector. I tend to just go about my day, without much thought. Bumps and bruises which I have no idea where they came from are a daily occurrence. Knowing this, I purchased screen protectors and I’m glad I did as I’ve gone through quite a few already. I’m not too sure how well the screen would have held up otherwise. As of now, the watch looks almost brand new a year later.Overall I’m very happy with the style, functions and quality of this watch. If you’re in the market for an analog watch with some smart mixed in, I highly recommend this watch. Citizen always makes quality watches and this one is no different.

too many compliments to count; great looking watch and everyone's impressed that it's a smart watch. if you like the analog look but like to count steps, track workouts, and receive texts-- this is the watch for you. it's heavy duty but not heavy; it's smart but not a rotten apple; it's even water resistant so washing hands and swimming is a non-issue. if I had to pick one con, i would say get rid of the adds on the mobile app or at least put those in the background; make my personal info more forward facing (data, stats, etc.). that said, my next watch will be THIS watch.

Where do I begin.I've been a Citizen fan for many years and own 5 traditional watches including a 2000 Stars and Stripes commerative edition that I bought new in 2001; as well as a Citizen Chronomaster 500m Chronometer.While shopping for a smartwatch I came across this one.It did not have all the features I would have liked (contact less pay, so2 monitoring) but the potential battery life was a big selling point and justified the premium over other watches with similar features.Unboxing was fine, everything looked as expected.My first disappointment was reading the warning on the first pamphlet, stating that the watch was barely even water resistant, much less waterproof!How is that a thing at all, much less from a "dive inspired" watch?That alone was a deal breaker but, I had charged it up so I thought I'd might as well give it a try.Setup and pairing was straightforward and painless.Immediately I noticed that the pedometer showed I had taken 42 steps, after walking <1m (~3').Also, even though the watch had been on the supplied charger for at least 4hrs, battery life was only at 72%.Proprietary Citizen software (mobile app) is woefully limited.The watch is absolutely useless in the dark, period.The hands don't even luminesce so it is literally unreadable if not in good lighting.There's likely more but there couldn't possibly be redeeming qualities for me at this point so I will be looking forward to returning this disappointment.

Very good smart watch for the price. It's not comparable with apple and others but minimalistic and 15days battery life is unbeatable.

Until now the are coming to pick- up the return item

Bought at £150 price. Good stylish watch with nice hybrid screen. Lume is ok- but watch has a light if you double tap screen. Citizen App is easy to use, very good health sleep tracking etc. This is no apple watch, only basic other features- no email but does notifications fine- although you cant ‘see’ and read all.. battery is amazing last ages between charges- main reason for purchase.If you want a hybrid watch with a decent opersting system solid basic features and long battery life. This is pretty good. Quality higher than expected. 24mm strap.

Non si collega né a telefoni iOS né a quelli Android , l’app indicata la CITIZEN Connected non esiste in Italia , non si collega con nulla , assolutamente inutile, fatta procedura per la restituzione , il peggior CITIZEN mai posseduto !

Das Uhr wurde geliefert, aber die App funktioniert in Deutschland nicht, Finger weg umsonst verlorene Zeit
