Christmas gift from my wife. Love the watch and the band. Light weight very comfortable.
So far, works well except for the band. The retaining loops keep slipping around on the band, allowing the free end of the band to flop around and get caught on clothing. Otherwise, no issues.
Have had the watch about 6 months really like it. The only reason i didn't rate 5 stars is the face and particularly the date is not easy to see. while i like the darker face the date is too small for my liking. Otherwise this is a fine time piece i wear mostly for nights out. I don't wear as an everyday timepiece.
I bought this watch as an alternate to the old Citizen EcoDrive I had for eight years. I chose this watch because of its reliability and accuracy to give time.
I found this watch online with Citizen about 5 months ago and it has become my go to watch. It's all black design goes with almost any outfit whether I'm going out or wearing it for everyday purposes. My friends complimented me right away when they saw the watch. It's solar powered so no need to worry about the batteries if worn through sunlight. It's rubber band is also all weather resistance, which becomes useful around water. The only thing I'd like changed is a slightly larger surface face for the watch, but other than that, it works and looks great.
This was a gift and it is watch I get quite a few complements on!
This watch is really slick and stylish with out all the big show
I am really enjoy my new Eco-Drive watch. Accuracy is perfect, Date and sweeping second hand and glowing hands in dim light were features I was looking for. This watch is stylish, waterproof, and the quality of Citizen is very apparent. Best of all, it has the Eco-Drive. charging is no hassle. Just set it in the light. Never needs a battery change.
This is a terrific watch, I would recommend it. It is easy to read, very waterproof, and most attractive. My only comp,Ian is that the little keeper loops on the band keep coming loose which is annoying.
With Eco-Drive, any Citizen watch for that matter is worth the investment. No more replacing batteries! As for styling, that comes down to a persons personal preference. I own 7 Eco-Drive watches, all have held up well with the exception of some scratches and the bands. This particular model is one of my favorites and most recent purchase. The crystal seems more durable than any of my previous watches since it still has no scratches! My only issue with this and many of the newer watches on the market is that they are bigger and noticeably heavier than my past watches (my favorite discontinued watch: Citizen 180 Eco-Drive Mens Titanium BM8290-05E). Overall a great watch worth owning.
