The second hand does not align with the tick marks - in fact, it stops in between each tick mark. My wife just bought this as a gift for me, and now Citizen is saying I have to pay shipping to/from them to correct their defect. I used to love citizen for the quality and value they provide, but I’ll never buy another. It’s an expensive watch to buy to get this poor of quality and service.
Watch is slightly larger, but fits the wrist better than other 41mm watches. It is somewhat thicker than others that size. Biggest gotcha is the watch is heavy, I didn't expect that being titanium. Still happy with it anyway.
I purchased the Promaster Tough (BN0241-59H) to serve as a durable everyday watch. The eco-drive quartz movement is a big part of this: no winding, super accurate time, no service for 10+ years. The 200 meter WR is also important, allowing for worry-free swimming and snorkeling. The super titanium finish has not shown any wear so far and keeps the watch much lighter than comparable stainless steel watches with 200 meter WR. The 41mm case fits surprisingly well on my 6.75" wrist and is very comfortable. The bracelet is also comfortable and easy to use. It would be nice for the bracelet clasp to have micro adjustment, but the links are short enough to be able to size it for a good fit. The black dial with white numbers and hands is very easy to read, though the date window is small. The luminous hands and markers show brightly at first, though diminish to a modest (but readable) glow that lasts a full night.
Citizen Response
Just received this watch. It’s a beautiful looking timepiece. It is lighter than I could imagine. It is stylish and rugged. I would definitely recommend. PS, I had citizen presize this for me and it fit perfectly.
