Time Will Tell
Citizen is a Seiko brand so it was easy to trust my purchase. Great looking watch to my eye. Appearance being a primary reason most folks choose a particular watch. As a chronograph, it has most of the bells and whistles. Set up takes a bit. Lots of things to tell the watch to make the perpetual day/date work. Citizen has a step by step online tutorial video, but I couldn't get it to play properly. Disappointment, the user manual suggests refurbishing the solar engine every four years. No doubt far more expensive than several watch batteries over the same time frame. Which I would have DIY'd. So a great deal more hassle. Had I known that, I would have passed on a solar watch. So time will tell how long it lasts without needing major service. Big flashy will plenty of eye candy. I like it.
