Device is excellent, phone app needs some further testing and improvement.

I was provided this watch in exchange for an honest review by Influenster and Citizen. So I feel we need to split this into two parts, the watch itself and the supporting software. Let's talk about the watch first! This watch is like nothing I have ever seen before. I am a big fan of mechanical watches, but I also like the convenience of being able to see my notifications on my wrist. This watch seems to be the perfect combination. The first time you see the hands move out of the way to show your notifications is a trip. Behind the hands is an e-ink screen that has customizable faces. Using the e-ink technology instead of a traditional LCD screen allows the battery life to go way farther between charges. Almost long enough that you lose the charger, wich is super impressive. Let's talk about the applications. These are the only parts i have issue with. There are two applications, Citizen Connection and CZ YouQ. I feel like one of these was an afterthought based on how they are deployed. The connection application has a number of very cool features that feel like you need the secret handshake to get to. It really has a robust watch face creator that is not very well explained or documented. The YouQ application felt incomplete. The connection to my watch had several issues and would not consistently record data, to the point where I was having to reconnect it manually to get it to record my sleep and pulse. The alert test is really cool though, I am a big fan of that. Using a reflex test to check your alertness, you can see how ready you are to face the day or night. Apparently this test is based on the one used by the astronauts on the space station. IN CONCLUSION: This is a great watch with a lot of very useful features. My only gripe is with the UI/UX of the applications that it connects to. For the price point it is comparable to other smartwatches, but the Apple Watch and the Pixel Watch won't get anywhere near as many looks as this.

My Hybrid

I like this Hybrid watch for most of its features. Some features that I do have an issue with is that due to my age and fading vision, the lettering can be very difficult to read. I do wish that this watch would measure blood pressure.

Good Watch, Bad Installation.

The watch looks very beautiful. It's a combination between citizen sport classic, and the new technology of smartwatches. However, it's giving me troubles connecting, it keeps saying "network error"! What is the reason? I need assistance and tech support. Also, the manual provided is very poor. All what it tells you is to refer to the app. It does not say anything about the functions of the watch, how it operates, or what does the buttons/keys to the side do?
