# Withings ScanWatch Review by A.I. WatchMetrics

## Watch Summary
The Withings ScanWatch (focusing on the current ScanWatch 2 42mm model) is a premium hybrid smartwatch that masterfully blends elegant analog styling with cutting-edge health technology, targeting health-focused professionals and fitness enthusiasts who prefer a sophisticated, traditional watch appearance over bulky smartwatches; standout features include FDA-cleared ECG for AFib detection, SpO2 and skin temperature monitoring, 24/7 heart rate tracking, connected GPS via phone, altimeter, sleep analysis, and an impressive 30-day battery life driven by a quartz hybrid movement with integrated sensors and a discreet OLED display.

## Overall Watch Rating: 7.5/10.0

**Functions Metric (9.9/10.0)** - Packed with medical-grade sensors for ECG, SpO2, temperature, and activity tracking, it rivals the health suite of much pricier options like the Apple Watch Ultra.
**Movement Metric (9.4/10.0)** - The quartz hybrid system delivers exceptional 30-day power reserve and reliable performance, outlasting typical smartwatches like the Garmin Venu in battery endurance.
**Versatility Metric (9.2/10.0)** - Seamlessly transitions from office wear to workouts and swimming, offering broader everyday utility than dedicated fitness trackers like the Fitbit Charge.
**Material Metric (8.7/10.0)** - Sandblasted 316L stainless steel case paired with sapphire crystal provides premium durability akin to entry-level luxury divers from Oris.
**Complications Metric (8.7/10.0)** - Advanced health scans and altimeter functions punch above its weight, comparable to higher-end hybrids from Garmin.
**Dials & Design Metric (8.3/10.0)** - The clean sunray dial with hidden OLED and subtle subdial strikes a refined balance, evoking the elegance of classic field watches from Hamilton.
**History & Innovation Metric (6.4/10.0)** - Withings brings solid health tech innovation since 2008 but lacks deep horological roots compared to pioneers like Omega.
**Brand Metric (4.5/10.0)** - A respected name in connected health devices, though it trails traditional watchmakers like Citizen in prestige and heritage.
**Rarity Metric (2.7/10.0)** - Widely available at accessible prices, it doesn't carry the scarcity of limited-edition pieces from microbrands like Baltic.

## Total Performance Score (TPS): 7.0

## WM Collector Grade: B+

## Performance Insights: Excels in functions, movement longevity, and versatility for health tracking, while brand prestige and rarity are average; strong value as it trades well below its $950 implied price.

## TPS Interpretation: Strong Value: Premium hybrid health features and marathon battery life make it a standout performer at its price point.
