Bluetooth G-Shocks

This is deliberately not in the G-Shock Prawn thread because it's not a gratuitous picture and I didn't want it to get lost.

Anyone have one?

My OH wanted to buy me one of these for Christmas but balked when she realised that it might not work as expected. I have the Nexus 5 which has Bluetooth v4.0, and the Android G-Shock+ app says it's compatible with the phone but the few reviews on the Play Store are terrible.

It's twice the price of any of my others, and while it would get worn, it seems a waste if its whole raison d'etre, the Bluetooth notification, is not used.

So, what I'm fishing for is:

1. Do they work as expected? (Call/SMS/Email notifications)
2. Will they work with phones other than the iPhone and Galaxy S4 listed on the website?

Thanks

I looked at these, but decided against it as I can't see the watch being updated to work with future phones/technologies. I tend to keep my watches for a lot longer than I keep my phones.
