This is an outstanding watch, my wife asked me if I wanted a Tag Heuer or this watch for my birthday, and quality wise I had to go with Citizen. It does take a little patience to set up and I ended up having to call the customer support line to get it right (which customer service was outstanding) but after that PERFECTION! The watch looks incredible and even my wife was impressed. I used to be a smartwatch guy and had several mechanical watches that I did not wear anymore until one day I heard a watch expert talk about how mechanical watches are something you can pass down so it has value, whereas a smartwatch we just trash after the battery is no good. To sum it up you cannot go wrong with this watch, so buy it!!
This is a beautiful watch! I love that I do not have to wind it or worry about batteries…EVER! The design of the leather band really compliments the watch. However, I do wish it was the exact same design but made of a more durable and sporty rubber material that would allow me to wear the watch freely in sweaty or rainy conditions.
I haven't used this watch as much as I want to but I love it. Is elegant but not to much, beautiful design, and of course very accurate.
I have been a fan of the U.S. Navy's Blue Angels flight demonstration squadron ever since the mid-1950s when my Dad started taking me to their air shows. It is an honor to wear a watch dedicated to them, stamped on the back of the case with their official seal and displaying their blue and yellow color scheme. Although not an inexpensive watch, I purchased mine on board a cruise ship at a substantial discount off the list price. Aesthetically, I frankly prefer the wristband to the more expensive metal bracelet model. The watch is perfectly accurate to the second thanks to a radio signal it receives daily at 2:00 AM and 3:00 AM. Even on those rare occasions when it does not receive the signal, the watch is still extremely accurate. Powered by ordinary light, the watch never needs a battery. The sapphire crystal is virtually scratch-proof and there's even a thoroughly impractical slide rule on the bezel it would take an aeronautical engineer to operate. Although it took some doing to program, now my watch never needs adjustment. It converts from standard time to daylight savings time automatically. I'm still holding out the hope that at one of their air shows the Blues will see me wearing “their” watch and offer me a ride in one of their two, two-seat, supersonic F/A-18 Super Hornets so we can punch a hole in the sky together. :-)
