Reduced to Three stars. This watch is a pain on the backside to charge. The Magnetic charger is not easy to use, you have to fiddle with it to get it to connect and often if its jostled it will disconnect and stop charging, with out you knowing.



Let me start off by saying this is the 3rd watch in 3 days from Amazon. (All Same day Deliveries) First watch was not Android Wear and I did not like it at all, second one simply was defective. So one was my fault for not researching, the other defective, in both cases Amazon refunded me without question, this is why I shop with them almost exclusively, As for this watch, I will update this as I use it more, But first impressions matter, First of the packaging was what you expect from a luxury watch, although a little thin on documentation, no big deal, pairing and setup were a piece of cake and the watch does a good job of walking you through. maybe 30 minutes total including charging, So far the screens are quick and responsive, great selection of faces, and of course i will be creating my own.The watch looks incredible, has an elegant feel and look, Made with quality materials, no plastic here. I have read some reviews that complained about the charging solution,I have had or seen no issues. I think they may have redesigned the charger. I was not paid or otherwise provided anything for this review by anyone.



1 day Update:



As promised I am doing a day 1 update on this watch. I will also follow up with a final update to this review after several weeks. First of all after wearing and using this watch for a day, I have to say I am in love with the look, feel and usability of it. At first I was not getting notifications, so I restarted (Re-booted) the Watch and now all the notifications come though. The Cards are typical Google (Android Wear) cards, nothing special, they pop up from the bottom and are not intrusive at all and easy to interact with. The watch itself does a good job at first on walking you through the gestures, but really it became intuitive rather quickly, nothing to complicated. Battery Life seems to be the same as any other watch I have owned, could be better of course and I would not buy this watch for the battery life that’s for sure, but I would not let battery life get in my way, as I said it’s about the same as other watches I have owned. Still no issues with the charger, I am not sure what other reviews meant by this, because I have not experienced any issues. I of course take the time to align the charger contacts.  Yes this watch is a bit pricey, and its true Android Wear is Android wear no matter the watch, this watch feels well built, looks luxurious and can be worn casually or formally, simply change the face and the band and its oh so easy to do.
