Great Watch! Needs Minor Improvements

This is my first Citizen watch which I purchased for my recent trip to Aruba. I’m not a diver but the watch works flawlessly as intended. Definitely waterproof as I was swimming with it daily. The watch is accurate and has held up well. My only minor gripe is after swimming in salt water daily the strap tends to fade. I washed it daily with mild soap and the color came back. Also the watch strap is very stiff. It does not conform to your arm as well. NATO strap or something softer would be more comfortable. Other than that I’m very satisfied with this watch. Also love that it’s solar powered.

This is the second one that I’ve owned and I love it. It’s stylish and a great diving watch.

Great watch

I bought this watch years ago and it is Solid. Having a Eco Drive watch is great, no batteries. I recently have not used my watch for over a month because of another watch. I put this on and shook it around and Keeps on Ticking again. I am on this site because I need another band. It’s been about 8 years. I think my dog got ahold of it but it’s so solid I want another band like this. I am not a diver but wear it surfing. It has held up very well.

Awesome Birthday Present

My son loves it. It was a birthday present - he wasn’t expecting it. The packaging was awesome also!

10 / 10

The watch is fantastic! I like the classic black dial. If you want variability, go this way. You can easily put it on a strap of any colour you like. Initially I ordered the orange gradient version which is more expensive but I realised that it limits colour options and returned it. Also, the watch comes in a mini scuba tank package that becomes a nice addition to my room.

A solid working dive watch

A great tool watch. I bought this to replace my Seiko 6309-7049 diver that I bought in Feb ‘85. This watch has similar looks but has the advantage of the Eco-Drive needing only light to charge it. So far, this watch seems robust enough for everything I’ve put it through. I’ve worn it fishing, swimming, shooting, and in daily yard work chores. It hasn’t lost time that I can tell - I don’t do anything precise enough to sync with a world clock. It looks and performs like a solid work watch, but is also nice enough to wear for casual outings.

THIS IS NOT A WOMENS WATCH!

1st let me say I LOVED this watch. Great quality, great price. No issues with the packaging, I could care less either way. The reason for the 3 stars, I have a size complaint. This comes up in a women's search. It is supposed to be unisex. There's another that I recently looked at, but in Navy. If you look through all the reviews, especially those with pics, they're ALL men. Why? Because the watch is too big for a woman. It was so large I couldn't make the band small enough, had a ridiculous amount of left over and had to use rubber bands to hold the excess down. I watched some YouTube videos on how to shorten the length, but with a watch that expensive (I didn't get it at the above price), was affraid to try any of them. I didn't want the hassle of looking up the return policy, I'd worn it for a week..ish and didn't want the hassle of a return either. I ended up giving it to my 16yo son. He liked it, wore it a few times, and now it sits on his dresser. I have several citizen watches and I love the eco drive and their quality. However, I was really disappointed in this one. Why isn't there a smaller one available?!? More importantly, why list it as womens or unisex? It's not. It's a mens watch!

US_Citizen Response We are sorry to hear that the size of your new watch is not what you expected. For this sporty dive watch, the larger size is appealing to women who like an oversized look that is similar to a men’s style. A few watches from our Citizen collection fall under this category and are labeled unisex. As a valued Citizen customer, your feedback is important to us. We will contact you through email where we will suggest other options.

Priced too low.

My girlfriend gifted me this watch about a year ago and it's the best watch I could've asked for. I surf 2 times a week (4 times in the summer) and it's been holding up amazing spending hours in the salt water. I have accidentally showered with it, got hot engine oil on it a couple times and dropped it in boiling water by accident..its took a beating the past year! But it just won't quit. After a deep clean it almost looks like I opened it for the first time. Nice and bulky watch too. Very masculine.
