Favorite watch

This was my first over $100 watch. I do a lot of outdoorsy activities. And I wanted a watch that was durable, and I wouldn't have to ever worry about it running out of battery or if I didn't wear it for 3 days. It's light, comfortable. I've had it 6 months and it looks brand new. I keep looking at other watches. Especially for nicer looking events, but I really just like this one. There's nothing I don't like about it.

Spartan Watch For Police

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.

Took A Shock And Shook It Off. Exceptional Value

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.

It's a workhorse

I bought this when it first came out. I think it was 2007. This was recommended to me by the watch store to replace my dead watch. For the most part, I've had very little trouble, if any with it. The only maintenance that has been done is to send it back for a new internal battery and new strap. (side note, don't buy straps from citizen! They are $$$$.) I'm not replacing the strap for a 2nd time going to my 3rd one. I'm going 3rd party now Otherwise than that I love the watch. It keeps great time and can be worn in the shower without any issues.

Tough watch

I was looking for something classy yet durable and reliable this watch definitely stands up to the test. I am a firefighter/ems provider and its stands up to the test.

Decent watch.

I bought this about a month ago. It is a good looking watch and is comfortable; Not too big and not too heavy. I am disappointed in that it loses time rather quickly. I'm seeing a 1-2sec time loss over a day or two. My $49 smart watch keeps better time. The time loss is not terrible, but for a product like a Citizen watch that supposedly represents quality, it's not what I hoped for or expected.

Much better in person very nice watch

This a great watch. Citizen you must make this watch in a 40mm dia. With a brush black case and the exact dial with the same band in black. You would sale so many of them. The band is alittle to Stiff

Nice watch...no warranty.

Within a couple of months of purchasing this watch, the crown pulled completely out of the watch. This happened when I tried to reset the date. I sent the watch in to get it repaired...assuming warranty would cover this. I just received a bill for $76.00 for repair of the watch. Over $200.00 for a watch that only lasted two months.

Glad I bought this instead of the $5,000+++ IWC

I bought this watch around 15 years ago. It reminds me of my favorite IWC watch, but about $5,000 and 2mm less. So it fits my wrist and my budget. 3 years ago I moved, and lost it in one of the boxes, which went into storage. I have just pulled it out again and wondered if it would still work. I placed it on a sunny ledge, and magically, it is ticking again! 48 hours later and it is still keeping time perfectly! I am elated!!!!!
