ZeTime 4+

I just got a ZeTime petite after my previous watch broke. I’m having some trouble getting it to charge, and a bit of confusion with using it and the app, but it’s not as hard as I thought it might be. Hopefully I can find tips somewhere on what settings to use for maximum battery life... 4 months in and I’m still very happy with the ZeTime. I haven’t mastered how to get it to charge straight up, and when the company told me it was a defective item I should return it was unfortunately past the return date for the retailer I bought through. However I’m able to get enough charge, often enough, that this keeps working fine. I don’t use the texting or emails or those sort of fancy features, just the clock and the activity tracker things.

Update almost 2 years in. This is still working fine. I am guessing the my Kronos app might work better Than the ZeTime one, but I don’t really want to swap and loose all my data.

The watch hardware is beautiful and well thought out. The hands over the screen works well and it’s great to have a “real” watch that always shows the time. Battery life is very good, I get 2 plus days per charge and charging is very quick. My only two negatives are, the vibrations are a little too weak to feel even with the intensity turned up and watch band tight. My other observation is the heart rate monitor is not very accurate especially while exercising. (I compared it to a calibrated pulse oximeter and the watch showed 121, the pulse oximeter showed 146! It would be helpful if the heart rate data could be viewed (not just the graph) and exported as individual data points. These are both minor suggestions and I suspect updates will improve these and many other features. Overall I am very happy, notifications work well, and it is a really refreshing design. I can wear it out at night and on a run. Well done!

Super classy look, like a movado but with cool features like weather, emails/texts, steps, heart rate, etc. While it doesn’t have features like an Apple watch to reply to messages, in some ways I feel like that’s a blessing for me but may not be for others. It allows me to stay connected more discreetly in day to day activities without appearing to be stuck in my phone. One feature I especially love is being able to upload a few photos to make custom watch faces 💕 Battery life is superb too. Pricing was reasonable and options for fashionable strap upgrades are a mile long. All in all I’d give it a solid 4+
