Watch looked great but the band was hard and uncomfortable to wear. I replaced for silicone band.
What a great simple watch, the dial size is not too big, just right
Bought this watch from a jewelry shop near me at the time back in 2017. This watch has been hit, scratched, banged about on Police Patrol! Yes, the strap got wet and rotted away after 1 year but hey, easily replaced by a "slip through nylon NATO strap"-no big deal. Retired with a newly purchased "thin blue line watch" making my "banged up vet" a back up. After all that abuse? This watch still keeps accurate time=Battle scrapes scratches and all! Wish I'd citizen sooner! A truly spartan watch! Sure wish Citizen would improve her "glow in the dark" features on all her watches but-that's what flashlights are for.
I purchased this watch to replace one of the same model purchased back in 2005. On two occasions that one had lost time for reasons I couldn't identify. It had otherwise been a superb watch. Kept much better time than a submariner Rolex (which I sold because the Citizen performed better). It was also tough. On one occasion I shorted out a buss bar, carrying 500+ amps from boat batteries. Left burn marks on the case, the band, and my wrist, but the watch never missed a beat. Remarkable for a complex electric watch.
