I purchased this watch out of country on a cruise before it was released in the USA so I have had it sense 2015. I love it and have worn it off and on for long periods of time sense then. I have only ever owned one other citizen in my life and it was passed down to me from my grandfather who purchased it over 50 years ago. I have to say that this watch shines more in the water then in any other place. At 66ft this watch is amazing and has withstood countless dives. I will say this however. It’s built like a tank. I may never have a need to replace it so sorry to citizen because I just can’t kill it which means you won’t see me buying another one anytime soon. The band is great when wet and stays put very well. It is also a great piece to wear to the office as well because it’s has just enough elegance to it that it doesn’t feel like a sports watch. I can’t say enough about it. It’s just down right amazing
I have now had this watch for a month and a half, never leaves my wrist period. I found it to be a little flashy the star burst dial and polished sides but I really like it on my just over 8 inch wrist and sits well on the wrist with no movement but still can put my fingers underneath the case. The watch runs about 6 seconds too fast over a month please allow a second or two, so really good time keeping I can live with 72 seconds a year difference as someone else said are you timing rocket burn times!! The date is to small for my older eyes I will add a magnifier to it, not sure if you can on a domed glass? Also the strap holders are not the best but actually not that bad either.I am a tradesman so during work it has to put up with bumps, scrapes and hard impacts from time to time, My last watch still working after 10-11 years but the lume wasn't the best which this watch does surpass but after waking up in the morning still is very hard to read. Overall I really like the watch it will take 5 years before I would say I love it, great watch thus far and for the money too thanks Citizen. P.s. As I live in New Zealand and they don't sell the watch here, I tried to register the watch but I didn't buy it from a authorised dealer, I have to send it to a authorised dealer to have it verified as someone else had used the same number, I have opened the back case and it's legit from photos I have seen of the movement etc.
