Great looking watch if you want a piece of jewelry, but not if you are buying it for the features or even just use it to tell time. The face is a bronze/grey color and much lighter than the photos. The In most lighting conditions I have to use my phone flashlight to see the hands against the face. The other dials, letters/numbers are so small the advanced features of the watch are near impossible to use.
So I got this watch because of 1. The feature 2. The color. Turns out it's not copper color as shows in the picture but more gold colored which I hate, the band is ridiculous and I don't understand why or how someone thought it is a good idea! It's just annoying and impractical
Color of hands and face are too close making it hard to read the time
I can't figure out how to set the time on this watch, and it is hard to read the date. As far as the wrist band for it, it seems to hurt a little once you wear it for a couple of hours. You can fill the metal of the band sticking you in the arm. It doesn't show you the entire band. It should.
It comes with an awkward clasp type band. You need to remove the band and buy a real leather band.
This watch combines Eco-Drive reliability and precise satellite controlled time with a stunning look. Only negatives that I’ve noticed after 10 days are 1) the hands can be difficult to see under low lighting, 2) the hands lack phosphorescence for telling time in the dark, and 3) the adjustment crown is slick, making it difficult on occasion to pull out the crown.
Certainly there is nothing wrong with a Citizen watch, how it operates or ease of programming it. My only regret is that I didn't shop for this piece in a brick and mortar store. It looks a wee bit too tame for my needs. While it give measurements you just cant get the visual unless it is held in your hand in my opinion. Something this price deserves a non-hurried buying experience. The strap is more like the clasp on a stainless steel watch and it is easy to modify for fit.
I got guse bumps when it arrived. To bad they sell pocket watches.
