A smartwatch looks like a real watch.
I was hesitant to buy this because of the negative reviews, but having used it for the last week I like it a lot. It looks very stylish and could be mistaken for a Swiss watch costing four times the price and it also does everything I need from a smartwatch. The notifications work fine, and the heart rate tracking and step counter seem accurate (I compared it to an Apple Watch). The only thing that might be slightly off is the sleep tracking but I'm hoping this can be improved with updates. The setup process was fiddly, adjusting the position of the hands was a bit of a pain, but only needed to be done once. The best thing about it is that it looks like a proper watch and not a wrist-top computer.

Excellent quality and a beautiful design!
Not only do I love this watch but it’s a little bit more special to me as I owned a 406 Coupe for 8 years back in the day, which was built by Pininfarina, so it’s a nice little keepsake for me and I’m glad I really like it!I love the way the watch comes presented, it really makes it feel a bit special, and it would make a brilliant gift too.The overall quality of the watch is excellent. It looks and feels well made, the dial looks brilliant, the body is finished to a very high standard throughout, the strap is quite nice, the screen is easy to read, and in general I’m very pleased with the quality. Its quite heavy too, a fair bit more than my galaxy watch 6.The app and smartwatch features are ok but it’s clearly the weak point with the watch. It was easy and quick to connect the watch, but the app isn’t the best that ive used and the UI isn’t great either. You can set which apps make the watch vibrate when you get a notification, and you also get a preview on the watches screen which is really nice.Battery life seems pretty good and way better than a normal smartwatch. It loses around 10% battery per day so I’m not sure how it can last 30 days but it’s still good enough for me and I usually charge it way before it runs out anyway.Overall, apart from the app I’m very pleased with this watch and for around £250 I think the value is ok too as its very nice quality and comes well presented. It’s a watch I’m happy to recommend and I feel four stars is appropriate for it, buy with confidence!

Beautiful watch but the hybrid part is a major disappointment
First of all the watch itself is beautiful. Simple, elegant, colours match between materials (i.e , same blue on strep as on the watch dial).Build quality is what I'd expect for a watch sold for £250-£300.Strap is comfortable and feels higher quality than most.Most if not all of my concerns are fixable via software updates. At the time of this review they're not fixed.Overall the watch feels premium and just like another reviewer mentioned, if it was just the analog watch this would've been a 5 star review however the smart watch / hybrid watch part is unfortunately a bit of a disaster.-Notifications are random.This is one of the most frustrating part of wearing this watch. Example: I made a payment with apple pay at 8 AM and I continue to get notifications about it the following day at random times. I've no idea what triggers it and I even tried paying attention to the logic of when it thinks I should be notified. It just vibrates on my wrist randomly and sometimes I even got the same notification (with the vibration) twice within 3 minutes ?! For something that was done over 12h ago ?-Still linked to notifications - you can't turn them off. I mean the app says you can, you toggle the thing off but the watch just ignores that and continues to vibrate.-Again, linked to notifications - if you dismiss them on your phone...you guessed it, you still get notified. What you need to do is open the history of notifications and clear them all. Dismissing a notification on your phone is not enough, you need to clear your entire history.-Battery life is advertised as lasting 30 days. It lasts about 14 with regular use. Changing vibration motor to low helps but it adds about 1 or 2 days more.-When the battery dips below 20% your notifications are automatically muted. initially I thought I'd finally cracked the code and managed to mute the notifications but realized it was just the battery being low because I recharged it and they started again. So if you don't mind the notifications or actually want to be notified so often, you'll have to keep your watch above 20% battery.-The app is overall rather basic although I like that you can configure the sub dial to show the steps goal progress % , for example if you've walked 5.000 steps of your 10.000 daily goal the sub dial will point to 50 (%). You can also link to Apple Health app but it doesn't synchronize data regularly - I don't know how/when it decides to send data to Apple Health.

This is actually a really good hybrid smartwatch
The media could not be loaded. The Pininfarina Sintesi Hybrid Smartwatch combines timeless elegance and cutting-edge technology. The analogue face, combined with a genuine leather strap, creates a timeless look, while the hidden digital display includes smart features such as GPS tracking, a compass, and fitness tracking for heart rate, steps, calories, and sleep.The Azure Horizon colour is striking and adds a distinct element to the design. It is ideal for people who want to combine style and functionality in one watch. The fitness features are accurate, and the leather strap feels comfortable to wear all day. An excellent choice for anyone looking for a stylish, feature-rich smartwatch. Watch the video for more info
