Quality The quality of this watch is great, you can see that for example in the beautiful box and its design. For example, to adjust the metal strap to your wrist size, there is an accessory to position the strap, a shiny hammer to tap out the pin. A lot of care has been taken.
Installation The Android (Samsung) installation of the Withings app went very smoothly at first, then it became complicated because a connection had to be made with the Google Health Connect app (saving/synchronizing data). After quite a few screens it finally worked and I'll leave it like that.
Information You preferably read the results via the app, not so much on the watch itself. This also makes the battery last longer (almost 2 weeks). The app is nicely in Dutch, handy texts about the health functions, clear graphs (also in Dutch), good navigation between the screens. Charging is also fast: from 50% to 100% takes just over half an hour (the app will notify you when it is charged).
No rush I was naturally inclined to turn on ALL functions immediately and I wanted to see instant results. That didn't work, e.g. the SpO2 measurement always gave an 'inconclusive' result, I was disappointed. But after a night's sleep everything had started up again, even the ECG. Apparently the watch needs some time to collect sufficient data.

The Withings ScanWatch Nova is without a doubt one of the most beautiful hybrid smartwatches on the market. At first glance, it looks like a classic, analogue watch — sleek, stylish and elegant — but behind that refined dial, there is a surprising amount of technology. Thanks to the subtly hidden OLED screen, you have a lot of smart functions at your disposal without sacrificing appearance.
The watch is very smooth to use. The accompanying Withings app is clear and well-designed, with a clear integration of health data and a link to Apple Health. Coolblue delivered quickly and correctly as usual, which only enhanced the purchasing experience.
However, there are a few minor caveats. For a watch in this price range, a built-in GPS would have been welcome — now you are still dependent on your smartphone for accurate location data. In addition, the OLED screen is nicely concealed, but it seems to be sunk a bit too deeply into the housing. That takes away a little of the wow factor and feels like a missed opportunity in an otherwise beautiful design.
Conclusion: The ScanWatch Nova is an elegant choice for those who want to combine technology and aesthetics. Not a full-fledged smartwatch in the Apple ecosystem, but a particularly successful hybrid for those who value style and health more than apps on their wrist.
