Citizen CZ Smart Hybrid smartwatch 44mm, Continuous Heart Rate Tracking, Fitness Activity, Displays Notifications and Messages, Bluetooth Connection, 15 Day Battery Life JX1000-03E

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.

It is the best smart watch I have ever had. To start: Citizen precision and quality. The screen is a good grayscale e-ink. You can customize the faces with your PC. You can choose the information displayed on the screen, steps, calories, day and date, temperature, battery level. The water resistance is a bit bad, it only withstands splashes, you can't swim with the watch. Now Just a request for the Citizen Company. Please is there a way to put the seconds on the screen?

MY watch is apparently the FIRST GENERATION of Citizen CZ Smart Watch. DO NOT confuse 'Gen 1' with 'Gen 2'. They use COMPLETELY DIFFERENT APPS. I had to ask Citizen directly (Amazon had no clue!) about which app was the right one, since My Watch Box has CZ Smart on it, I thought that will be easy since Apple Application Store would know which is the right one for MY watch - NOPE! Though if I had known which generation of 'smart watch' was the one I bought (before I bought it) AND if I had known how crap its 'App' actually is, I would propbably NOT have bought it. But as I will say HERE it was waay cheaper than an Apple Watch - about £140. So do not have high expectations of it. Whether 'Gen 2' (with an app that APPEARS TO BE MUCH BETTER, but is it?), is better value I have no idea but that one is around £280 the last time I looked. It looks similar to me, but there is not one I would want from its range of colours, but only because I already have a Blue Gen 1. My opinion about Gen 2 would likely be different if I had NOT got a Gen 1 already. Gen 1 is therefore only relatively good value for money (I got it for waaaay less than the claimed 'RRP' which I would NEVER have paid, that was waay too much), at about £140. No where near 'as useful' as an Apple Watch, no where near as 'easy' to use but the battery lasts at least two weeks - when you don't wear it!!. I have not worn it yet for even 24hrs straight, so can't vouch for its battery life while it in use. It is not as comfortable (for me) as an Apple Watch nor as comfortable as any of my 'other analogue' watches. The strap is the problem, like it is for me on most watches I have tried and NOT bought, or HAVE bought & got other straps for. THIS watch has a UNIQUE lug/strap width (at least 25mm or more!) Even wider than on my Casio G Shock. To actually USE this watch, is much more complicated & the 'info' provided is quite limited compared to Apple, but at least the Analogue Hands are REAL not digital, so you can see 'the time' at a glance. However the 'Lume' (which IS there), is VERY POOR, and all you will see 'in the dark' are the hr/min hands - there is no 'sec' hand anyway. The 'screen' which DOES light up (a little) when in use does NOT show up bright enough in the dark to read ANYTHING. Any 'smart functions' are for DAYTIME ONLY. 'Other info' shown on screen WITHOUT touching the control buttons, is too small to read (for me) without reading glasses & only shows 'Steps', previously registered (when?) rather than VERY RECENT heartbeat, & distance travelled during 'running/excercise'? Any other info like Battery level & whatever else it is capable of generating or showing or any other function, has to be 'found' by multiple button presses. But I suppose that is what you get from a so called 'smart watch' that was designed to have long battery life - no touch screen control, & info hidden untill you find it. But it is also less than a quarter the price of an Apple Watch. I do actually like very much how it looks too. Don't bother with expecting 'the app' (that you apprently NEED - to be able to enable the watch to do anything at all) to actually do very much once the watch is linked to the app, since the APP provides VERY LITTLE actually useful info (to me, but you may disagree). On my iPhone I get constant reminders - every few days - that 'I have not connected' with my 'smart watch' recently. Or something similar. The app is 'Citizen Connect' so I guess the reminder is kind of logical. I have no idea how to stop then or even IF thosereminders can be stopped. I do not need them. I expect that deleting the app would do that, but then your 'smart watch' would be completely useless without even any link to what the time is, never mind anything else. But since 'the app' does very little once your watch & app are initially 'registered with each other', the reminders are not really needed.

I have always looked for a watch that combines smart features with a traditional.watch feel, add in long battery life and this watch has it all. It cannot replace my smart watch completely but it sure is close and looks good too

Really great watch, has everything I need, is very stylish & eye catching (received many compliments) and the battery is amazing

🤣

There is NO cz connect app in the play store, it has gone, so watch is USELESS on android phones. Citizen are currently negotiating for its return. Check the store before buying

Not even had it powered up, had to be returned - description on Amazon page states water resistance to 30M - manufacturers own info inside the box states splashproof only
