Just received this watch as a present from my wife and it is beautiful, elegant, historical looking, and just a sweet classic.
I bought this from a local shop, and I'm so glad I did. I looked at it a couple of times, tried it on, and ultimately returned to purchase it. For the price you really can't find any faults. I have more expensive watches, automatic watches, but man, I love my Eco-Drive's because I just throw them on (adjust the date, if needed) and I'm off. This watch in particular, in terms of style, punches well above its weight. A winner for sure.
The watch looks amazing, has a great feel to it, and keeps the time extremely well.
So I was robbed 2 months ago and lost both of my Citizen Eco-Drive watches. Heartbroken, I got back onto Citizen's web page to update my collection. After 2 weeks of deliberation, I finally picked the Classic (AW0082-01A), and I am extremely happy with it. It is distinctive enough that I am choosing to wear it more than my Tissot. It just looks classy. And I am impressed with the next generation of Eco-Drives - it has a lot more power than my older watches. Very happy, it is now my work watch.
