I was keen to find a watch with that classic, classy appeal, which had the day-date function. After doing some (okay, a lot) of research, I was about to buy a Tissot, when I discovered this gem. The pictures on the website don't do it any kind of justice! It is beautifully finished, with the day and date windows each having upward and downward slanting frames, which catch the light and add extra eye appeal. The crystal is domed, which gives it a beautiful distortion when seen at an angle, something I wasn't expecting - an added delight. The leather strap it comes on is beautiful as well, in faux alligator. It takes no time to break it in, and is super comfortable - you'll forget you're wearing the watch. Eco-Drive means you'll get at the very least 10 years without maintenance, although I've heard it can go to 20 years or more, and with the movement being rated at +/- 15 seconds a month, but mine running at -3, I will never buy another mechanical watch! The only down-side is that it's not a perpetual calendar, but you won't find that at this price point. Gorgeous and hassle-free; if you're undecided about this piece, I highly recommend just going for it. It'll get lots of compliments, too... beautiful things will do that.

It’s a classic timepiece with amazing detail. My only complaint is the double clasp bracelet, they don’t belong on leather straps in my opinion.
I got this watch at Macy's on sale. My wife wanted to know why I wanted another Eco Drive. Have used my Titanium for almost 20 years surfing, swimming, sailing. It is still keeping time. Even she commented on how nice this watch looks.
I was gifted this watch for Christmas 2023 and since then, I have had no less than a million compliments on this watch. It is the absolutely perfect addition to my ensemble.
Watch arrived in good condition and exactly as shown on your website. Delivery was timely. No concerns. Bought this as a present and believe recipient will be pleased.
Christmas gift I hope he loves it. I think it looks amazing.
A bit bulky for a real dress watch but a real workhorse that also looks amazing. Got this one on a beige nubuck leather strap and the look is hard to beat for a summer watch. wr100, saphire,set it and forget it Citizen get to make something like this in 38mm with a dome Saphire Crystal and a thinner profile.
My wife loves it. The band took a few minutes to figure out but no real problem. Haven't set the date yet but I am sure there will be no real problem. Very satisfied!
I really like this watch. it checks almost all the boxes: good value, Eco-drive, Day/date, good looks. I have the gold tone with the champaign face and it is stunning. My only dislike is the band & deployment clasp. The band looks ok, but is stiff, made in China, and difficult to use. Maybe it is just me, but I hate a deployment clasp. For me, they are very difficult, hard to use and uncomfortable. This is my 2nd Citizen watch with a "deployment clasp". I immediately remove and replace them with a high quality strap and regular clasp, so that has to figure into the value equation for me.
My husband loves his new watch itself. It's easy to set the date and time. His only complaint is the watch band buckle is very complicated. It's a butterfly type buckle. He will likely replace the band.
My husband loved it.
Great-looking watch, wonderful to wear and use. I bought it as a gift to myself, and I'm glad I did.
Broke almost immediately. Was setting the day of the week and the dial became unresponsive and was stuck between two days. Will never recommend citizen. Returned and purchased a different brand.
I just buy one today and is amazing, super classic, and formal, I really liked it and recommended it, Thank you
