Overall I would say good for the money. Face, hands, dial, all looked great. What was not great was the polished areas which seemed a bit random. I would prefer all matte/brushed steel look over the entire watch and band. The photos do not show just show "shiny" it really is in the polished areas.
My last divers watch bought in 2010- has been sent back 3 times. Zales told me the next is on me. Well it just stopped running again this week. I wear it every day and I am not hard on it. Going to try it one more time and buy the blue faced drivers watch.
I saw many positive reviews of Citizen dive watches on Youtube. I wanted a solar watch so I purchased this one. I won't be diving, but my girlfriend has a beach house in Delaware so it may get time in the Atlantic ocean and certainly in swimming pools. I like the way it looks. I had it sized before shipping.
Nice watch little too big.
Looks grea, fits well and comfortable. I like the double clasp on the band but the band scuffs too easily. Worn daily for less than a month with basic activities no physical labor or workouts and there are visible marks
The Luminous Hands and Markers are not as visible as I think they should be. Otherwise, I love the watch. Very disappointed because of this.
Absolutely love the watch look and feel
This watch is almost perfect. The time keeping is one of the best. The design is elegant, except the only shortcoming: the date is useless since it is so small. It looks ugly too. Make the date size 100% larger, then this watch is perfect.
I only took one star off because I cannot comment on the longevity of the watch, having had it only a few weeks. But so far, I like it. I replaced the steel band with a textile strap. The numbers are easily legible at a glance, which for my old eyes is now a criteria for all my watches. It keeps perfect time.
Beautiful watch. It’s probably the heaviest on my wrist. I like wearing my watches a little loose, so the extra heft added to the movement and presence. It is very accurate, which is why I chose the quartz with the solar. This is my fifth solar Citizen. I’m a fan. In four to five days, I’m off one second. The date window is too small. Really hard to read which is a shame. I think the designers tried to fit it into the 3:00 indice but they should have made it bigger. The lume is ok. Lume point on the 12:00 bezel is a nice touch. Alignment good. Bezel clicks good. Only complaint is the date window.
