I love that the watch has the eco drive technology in it, it’s the main reason I purchased the watch. The numbers are very easy to read. However the numbers for the date is very tiny. Only the big and little hand glow in the dark so you can’t really get an accurate time. And my wrist is pretty small (it’s on the 4th hole) and the leather strap is very stiff and uncomfortable, hopefully it softens up.
I got this watch about 1.5 years ago and I'm very pleased with it. I wear it 3 or 4 days out of the week, rotate it with another daily Great movement, accurate, easy to read, stylish and durable. I wear it to work sometimes and I use my hands a lot for my work. Holds up great all day. Get the right strap and it could be a good beater! My gripe is the lume (weak) date (small and have to squint to read it) and the manufacturers strap was too thick. For you thick wrist men, you may not like it. I thick a thinner strap. All in all, a great watch!
I have admired this watch for sometime. It was given to me as a belated Father's day gift. I always love the concept of 24 hour time keeping. If this watch is redesigned, Citizen should present larger 24 hour numerals only. Second the numbers should glow in addition to the hands.
It’s a beautiful watch, albeit a tad bigger than I prefer. Love the solar aspect of it though and will be keeping it.
