I have had this watch for about a month, and so far I am very pleased with it. It is accurate, as one would expect, and the solar charging seems to work well. It is very well made, and the bezel fits and rotates beautifully. The blue and orange color scheme is very attractive. It's a decent size but not heavy oin the wrist.
Great quality! Loving my first Citizen watch! Will add to my collection in the near future.
Have had both of these watches for six months. They have been in the ocean, swimming pools, and my everyday time keepers. Time accuracy is spot on. Time markers are accurate and love both colors and watch design. These are my two go-to watches of over 25 time pieces I currently own.
Amazing watch! Beautiful! Arrived soon after ordered.
I thought this color combination was unique and eye catching when it first appeared, but I hesitated buying one (how many watches do I really need?). Unfortunately, deciding to finally buy one became a bit of a search as they are now difficult to locate. But, perseverance paid off and I did finally find one to purchase. Glad I did as it is fantastic looking and a great option for daily wear. Excellent build quality and function. No flaws in markings, fit, or components. Timing marks and movement align perfectly, and the watch is maintaining time with accuracy after about a month of use. Luminosity is good, maintaining a useful glow across the night if I'm up or out late. Date window is a bit small, but still usable and fine for a watch of this genre. Crown screws down super tight and can be difficult to release, but this is better for water resistance. Once unscrewed, easy to pull into the proper detent for setting of time or date. Band is of decent quality and comfortable. However, I will replace with a nylon/NATO at some point as band fit is not great for me, being either too tight or too lose. But that's just my wrist and may not be yours... I look forward to enjoying this watch for years to come!
My only complaint is the cheap band. its thin, too long and the buckle is very cheap and it not a signed buckle. for 300 dollars on an ISO certified diver you need to finish it with a nicer more comfortable strap. I got a SRPD93 Seiko automatic they sell for much less and seem to go that extra mile on case finishing and a nicer strap thats signed. Yes the seiko is only 100 meter but its an auto and I paid 200 bucks new from an AD. I paid 300 bucks new from an AD for the citizen. Now im a huge fan of the echo drive and love the new colorway and ofcourse it keeps better time than an auto but that attention to detail is lacking. Dont take this review as bad im in love with the piece big time. Its worth the hype for sure and its a great size and comfortable on wrist. I would recommend it all day, Im just a dive watch collector and giving my honest opinion.
Bought this watch and it arrived in three days. Nice job Citizen. I am calling this my official watch for spring and summer. Absolutely stunning colors. I actually put my own nylon navy and orange striped band in it and the compliments come to me a ton everytime I wear it. I also appreciate the fact that the second hand ticks right on the second markers and not in between. All of my Citizens get this right. Awesome job Citizen and keep making great colors on the face. Would love to see some bright blues and white.
Great solar diver. I love the color, strap and fit. Perfect casual every day watch!
Great watch. Only negative is they removed the numbers from the band, looks plain. This is my 5th citizen, can’t beat the watch vs the price.
