The disclosure is related to a wrist type apparatus, and a system for measurement of cardiovascular health, and a method for the same. The wrist type apparatus is preferably a wrist type blood pressure device that includes an electrode-based module and a piezoelectric sensor module. The electrode-based module has three electrodes that are used to contact the skin of a human for generating a first set of data by measuring a target heartbeat. The piezoelectric sensor module is used to generate a second set of data by measuring a pulse wave produced by the target heartbeat corresponding to the first set of data. When the two sets of data are received by a processor, it is able to calculate a cardiovascular health value in accordance with cardiovascular health marker(s) that are selected from arterial stiffness, blood pressure, heart rate, pulse transit time, and pulse wave velocity.
