It is a beautiful watch, with clear, luminous markings, at a great price with no batteries to replace. What's not to like?
I see the last review was from years ago, so since I just purchased I wanted to leave a new review. Excellent watch, exactly as advertised. This is my second Citizen Ecodrive (my last one lasted over 15 years) and I look forward to this one lasting the same. The numbers are easy to see and glow very well in the dark. I agree with one reviewer that the date window is a little hard to see, but I am otherwise very pleased with this watch.
Bought this because it seemed to show hands and numbers clearly… PERIOD! Without a melange of useless dials (Really? The time until next leap year?) crapping up its face, the watch promised one thing… to reward a fast glance with the correct time. After three weeks of wear, it’s done that. Also, since I’m reasonably secure in my manhood, this watch was offered without testosteronic chain links on a band which are guaranteed to do little more than gouge up my MacBook Pro and snag sweater or jacket sleeves. It’d be better if the illumination on the hands had longer life than an ill fruit fly. All in all, this watch both lets my iPhone stay in-pocket longer while surreptitiously tracking just how seriously some insecure gasbag’s monologue’s scraping away at my remaining life. Best of all, there’s no need to page through a thick manual twice yearly to adjust it to the caprice of daylight savings time or each time I cross time lines. This is my third Citizen watch.
The face of the dial makes it easy to read very pleasant and standout to look at.
