This watch was a replacement for the fossil smart watch that broke before it. I went with the hybrid because it was less complicated and I thought it might last longer than a year. I like the style and the long battery life compared to the gen 4. With that long battery life, I was excited to be able to wear it for consecutive days and nights because I love getting my sleep data. However, when I leave it on for more than a couple days it starts to burn my arm. I have to wear it tight enough to pick up my pulse but then after a day my wrist is red, irritated, and burnt under the sensors and watch band.

First of all, love this watch I'm so glad I bought it. I get the look of a classic Fossil watch which I love, with the smartwatch capabilities I liked about Fitbit. The HR monitor is great, step tracking is pretty spot on and having the weather right on my wrist without having to go into an app is awesome! The only thing that is slightly hard to get used to is using the dials as up, down, and select. I wish it had a little more instruction on those in the manual. Overall I think this watch is great for anyone who wants a smartwatch but doesn't want to be interrupted constantly with notifications or doesn't need all the extra apps. This keeps me focused at work at not on my wrist. Great product.

I've had this watch for a year now, and it honestly doesn't show. It functions really well, battery life is about 2 weeks (I wear it 8 to 6, 5 days a week) and the covering is pretty sturdy (I bang my wrist on things all the time, no scratches!) The straps have also held up. There's some fading, but it has been a year and I wash my hands a whole lot more now, so it's expected. In terms of the 'smartwatch' aspect, I still get a kick out of shocking people that it's actually smart. I like just being able to see notifications since I work in a lab and most times I'm wearing gloves and my hands are occupied. In short, amazing purchase, no regrets

I had the Jacqueline Q hybrid watch prior (which I still love) but wanted to be able to read notifications from my phone. This watch has a clean, professional look that can be dressed up or down. I get many compliments on this watch. Many have no idea it is a smart watch as you can choose many different faces behind the clock hands. I especially love this feature because I want a smart watch that looks like a normal watch. One thing that I miss from my Q hybrid watch is the photo feature that allowed me to set up my phone and click one of the knobs to capture a photo. This was handy when trying to capture selfies with more than three people.

Not only is this watch pretty it does all that I want: tracks steps, sleep, workouts, commute times, calendar, text messages, and it can ring my phone if I lose it, which is quit frequent. I love how you can change the background of your watch face. I love all the features. I love how it can incorporate with Google fit. I've been looking for a tracker that doesn't look like a health tracker and this watch is perfect.The charge lasts about a week. Can't get enough of this watch, best purchase ever.
