This watch is a great value in titanium. The only thing missing is a ratchet clasp which I am currently sourcing from a third party vendor. I’m wondering if newer versions will come standard.
I love my new watch! It is light as a feather compared to my steel watch. The look and finish are great.
It was an extremely easy online ordering process. As part of my order, I'd requested that the band be resized, which I thought was a nice service offering. The watch arrived in a timely manner, and the novelty packaging was an unexpected surprise. The watch was also set to the current time and date, which was a nice touch. Upon arrival, however, the band wasn’t resized and was too large, so I contacted online customer service. I was offered a choice to return the watch for resizing or have it done at a local dealer and receive a $15 credited refund. I chose the latter for convenience. After emailing the receipt to customer service, I was refunded the entire amount, which was just over $20. Gisela in the customer service department assisted me throughout the entire process and handled the issue promptly and with friendly professionalism. Her efforts to resolve the issue more than made up for the minor mistake. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I will be ordering from Citizen in the future. Thank you, Gisela!
The watch is great. The directions for setting were not intuitive, however. I had to go to a jeweler who explained to me that the watch crown had to be loosened to set the watch. This step was not explicitly stated in the online video. Otherwise, very happy.
It is an excellent design and very practical tool watch. Unfortunately the band is somewhat short, it is OK on the wrist but it is too short to wear it on a thick, cold weather diving suit, which is by design intended for.
The good - titanium and light. The bad - the date window. So small that I wonder why it is even a feature on this watch. Hopefully, Citizen will make a change in the future to put a bubble or make it larger.
Although the wrist band was clearly stated it was four inches short.Also it was bent and would not open.Who ever inspected before shipping missed this one by a mile.
I like this watch a lot there's only one issue and that is the bezzle feel a reaction very stiff and crunchy. Pros- great looking watch super comfortable and light weight nice bracelet if you like the metal style bracelet, keeps good time has a great lume. It's solar! Why would you buy anything else especially not an automatic. You don't drive a car with replaceable Ignition points and crank windows anymore do you ? LOL Cons- No sapphire crystal the bezel action is horrible. If citizen would make this watch 41 or 42 mm 11mm thick, 4 o'clock Crown position and a nice blue face with a sapphire crystal I will buy another one assuming the bezel works better.
My siblings and I bought one for our dad's birthday. I got it sized for him and liked it so much that I bought another for myself. He hadn't worn a watch in years and never takes his off.
Absolutely love mine, exactly what I was looking for. I would definitely buy again but probably won’t ever need to.
