This watch has seen many changes in my life. I purchased it on my first overseas deployment with the military... 20 years and a family later, I still love this watch. The original band is long gone (I literally wore it out), but the watch never fails to keep time and the date. If you're wanting something simple and timeless, you've found it.... and yes, it still glows! I do miss the drab green band.
I've been wearing mine daily for about a year. Solid build, easy to read features. It can be dressed up with a leather strap or you can go with a NATO, it looks great with either.
Female. 30 yo. This watch fits me perfectly, even though it's marketed for men. The design is so much more usable than any ladies watch, and the face is even smaller than some of the women's style eco-drives that Citizen makes. It's got a beautiful military style, and if you change up the band, it could look pretty sleek! As some other reviewers noted, the "eyelet" design around the band that's used to close/latch the clasp of the watch can be hit or miss. It fit my wrist perfectly, by chance. I can close it to the third hole from the actual time piece, about 6.5 inches. I would recommend searching online for an alternate band style, at 18mm, which is easy enough, I would think.
This is an excellent all-around wristwatch: solar powered, accurate, and good-looking it can serve as a "field" watch, or with an upgraded strap it definitely dresses up well. It's better looking in person than in a photo, with good proportions. The mix of brushed and polished surfaces works well, the red sweep-second hand stands out, the lume is useful, and the water resistance fills out the features list. All in all, this is a classic: it could be your only watch.
