Buy an Iconic, its a smart bit of junk on my wrist that does not work

So yesterday I bought an Iconic, went home and found no instructions in the box, turned on the watch and greeted with multiple messages in different languages telling me to go to www.fitbit.com/setup

 

So did this, then that told me to go google play, download fitbit to my phone, make an account, work out all the things I want to do. everything is going well - my watch still not passed the first screen but a nice app on my phone.

 

Then my app says I need to update firm ware through wifi - off I go "cant connect try blue tooth" cant connect try wifi" after 8 or 9 attempts. I'm narked off.

 

Take my phone and watch to work - ask a colleague to try and we use our work wifi, yet again nothing happens.

 

What happened to the days when you could just turn on a watch and it would tell the time, Iv paid £250 of a piece of useless junk where I could go to the market and pay a tenner for something that would actually tell the time, I am surprised I have not smashed it yet out of sheer frustration.
