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. :-)
I consider myself to be a “watch snob” and I absolutely LOVE my Citizen Blue Angels edition World Chronograph A-T!!! I wear it more than my Rolexes and get far more questions and compliments regarding it too!
I do love this watch. Well worth the money to me. I do have one question. How do I go about getting a larger band? i did not see the option when I first ordered it. Please help. Thank you!
