I bought this time piece on October of 2013 and so far I have only satisfactions. I do not take it off.
Not much to say other than its a stunning watch with all the features you could want
I have had this watch for a long time, it's tough enough to wear daily, I wouldn't go to far on purpose but it's survived some rough days. From a military background I use the watch mostly for accurate time keeping and it works well. I've only adjusted the alignment once in four years of pretty consistent time changes,for time zones not an accuracy problem for keeping time, it's back to it's original set as if normal. I could not give it a fault for anything save the alarm, it's quiet but useful for routine alerts like checking something at a certain time, I wouldn't use it for a wakeup. It has some character on the clasp, but considering what it's been through and it's still in great shape I look at it as a positive. Lum is also surprisingly bright even today, that's exceptional. The layout of features is useful if you take the time to set it, it's not complicated once you start and I again have only ever needed to align it once. It's also spent some time in the drawer, I'm pretty much sold on Citizen from here on would consider an updated model or like upscale model later, a like model with more water resistance would be an interesting but it's here to stay.
My local jewelry shop called me and said they ordered me this watch (since they know I like Citizen watches and the color black). I felt a little pressured into buying this, but am very grateful that I did. This watch is stunning! The features seem a little unnecessary, like the alarm - which is somewhat hard to hear and I would never depend on it to wake up. However, being an Eco-Drive, a very accurate time keeper, and looking amazing - this watch was a must have for me.
