For a perfectionist engineer such as myself, the Citizen Wave F900 is an uncompromising watch! It has EVERY feature that I had hoped for - from automatic satellite-sourced time setting to a STUNNING elegance. Unlike most (every?) smartwatch on the market today, this watch is a "self-contained" masterpiece that provides not only precise timing, a perpetual calendar, and self-setting anywhere in the world, it requires no special "recharging" constraints due to its Eco-Drive capability. It is also fully featured: Precision time, perpetual calendar, chronograph and alarm! All of this in an incredibly thin, diamond-like-coating Super Titanium case for ultra-light comfortable wear and scratch resistance, and a sapphire lens. Water resistant/"proof" to 100m! The display is not crowded and is therefore easy-to-read, even for an aged-eye! Even the built-in "micro-adjust" in the clasp is appreciated, as one does not have to add/remove links to adjust for seasonal/daily variations in wrist size. Finally, the watch looks elegant - it gets many compliments! While this watch is not "inexpensive," it is as great looking as many famous-name watches that cost 10 times as much and far more functional! Even that gives it an advantage, because "heaven forbid" were I to lose it, I'd buy another IMMEDIATELY without hesitation!
I Luv this watch as when I travel to different time zones I am always on Time! The light Titanium construction means it is strong yet lite as a feather!!!!!!! I LUV the silver face color!!!!!!!
When I walked in to the Citizen store in Las Vegas, I did not expect to leave with this watch. The face was absolutely gorgeous. No matter what other models I looked at, I kept coming back to the Satalite Wave. I have several Atomic Citizen watches and the speed that this one receives the time sync signal puts the other watches to shame. It's almost instantaneous. The motors on the hands are so quick. When I put the watch in Chronograph mode, it's fun to watch all the dials clear out.
The "one watch that does everything" watch. Just take it out of the box and put it on. Keeps accurate time no matter what time zone you are in. It also looks good on a wrist.
Multi-motor self-setting solar analog watches are pretty easy to come by these days. This one is exceptional, however. It has enough features to keep my interest over the long term, yet delivers the time, day, and date on a beautifully-designed and balanced dial, anywhere in the word. Not all GPS watches include a day indication. This watch is nicely understated by today's standards, with a clean, conservative case that doesn't feel large or heavy, no small feat considering the watch's capabilities. I love the design, so am willing to accept the occasional lack of contrast between the hands and dial, depending upon ambient lighting. The luminescent material is not powerful, but glows into the wee hours, which is when I actually need it. I always prefer steel to titanium, but the weight on this titanium piece is nice. Now, if only I could find a jeweler who knows how to adjust titanium bracelets without pounding on them... thank goodness Citizen has a good service department. If in doubt, let them adjust the bracelet.
I am a pilot who regularly flys all over the world and this watch is perfect for me. All I have to do is hold one button for 2 seconds and in about a minute it discovers the satellite and adjusts the time to whatever country I am in at the time. It keeps perfect time and is gorgeous to look at. I love it!
I purchased my watch on Black Friday 2016, and what a deal! This Citizen Eco-Drive is light weight, run's smoothly, and keeps precise time. It is both handsome and accurate.
I like the fact the only time you have to set anything is for daylight savings time or only twice a year. Have not been to another time zone yet, otherwise it looks supersharp and received a lot of great comments on it.
I bought the watch a few months ago and I have been very happy with the purchase . I have traveled internationally and locally with this watch. The ease with which I can manage and maintain time in all the travel amazes me. I like the watch design a lot and I don't think all the complications on the watch overwhelm the classy look of the watch. The watch has so many features that I am still learning to use them after 3+months . On the whole, I would recommend this watch to others.
It's my forth Citizen Watch. I can't use the hour auto ajustement with satellite, and as an airline pilot, it's a regret.
