So far, I am very happy with my watch. It is handsome, comfortable and accurate.
I love looking at the green dial.
just an all around awesome watch! great looks can be worn with jeans or a suit!
Watch face is beautiful. It’s very light weight, clean green dial and large numbers. Very easy to read. However, the date is so tiny, I almost don’t want to look at it. I mean, come on, Citizen designers. You put a date complication in a watch and what good it is if I can’t even read it. And today’s date is 2nd-a single digit. I wonder how small the two digit dates would be. I need to check now. I know this is a titanium body, but I really wished this watch was more shinier stainless steel finish. My god, imagine how pretty it’d look and add slight weight to it. I like my watches to have that feel of wearing it. I gave four star, but in actuality it’s more of 3.5 star watch.
This is an excellent quality all titanium sapphire crystal solar watch. Keeps perfect time, very easy to read, great illumination, fits like a glove on my wrist. When adjusting the band, make sure you do not loose and you must reinstall the very small friction collar/tubes that are needed to keep the watch band link pins from moving. Citizen has watch band adjustment instructions on-line for these type of watchbands.
Incredible watch! Actually purchased this to replace my Apple Watch Ultra. I’ve always been a classic watch guy, but also love technology. Recently, however, I been wanting to get away so to speak from all the alerts and just media that floods my brain. So I wanted a watch that was titanium and could handle everything I throw at it like intense hiking and workouts. This fits the bill! Numerals are very nice and the luminous aspect is phenomenal! Watch is very comfortable and sits well on the wrist… I actually am able to sleep with this no problem and wear it everywhere. Also, the green face is just beautiful in person. One other huge perk is the fact it’s solar powered and to be honest… part of the reason to stop using Apple Watch is the annoying battery always being dead and having to recharge. Not anymore! I’m very happy with this watch and I’m actually considering purchasing the black face as well! Great buy and highly recommend it. Just one more thing is the spherical crystal. Very nice touch! Also, I would like to add if there is one thing that I didn’t like. I notice that the second hand doesn’t hit every marker 100% accurately. This obviously is a cosmetic detail because the watch holds perfect time down to the minute. At this price point that issue would probably be I would assume a common issue. I would say the second hand hits 70% of the markers perfect, not a huge issue because the overall quality and appearance makes up for this.
Overall, I really like this watch. The dial is legible and the green is a lovely shade. However, I have a few issues with the watch…1) the band has very sharp edges (almost dangerously so), particularly the clasp; 2) the band catches and pulls hair like no other watch I’ve worn. I usually sleep with my watches on, and I find this one’s band makes me have to make sure my arm isn’t near my beard for fear of pulling; 3) the lume is very bright, but there is distortion caused by the glass, making the time harder to read in the dark. One other note: the watch was sized correctly, but it was sized on the last micro-adjust hole of the clasp. This was an issue since my arm swells throughout the day. I had to add one of the links back and then adjust the clasp.
I've owned Citizen watches in the past--they were solidly reliable. I changed to a tracker watch, but it's status as a watch was secondary at best to the fitness functions. I've figured out now about how much I walk and climb stairs, and so it was time for me to just look at my wrist and easily see the time and know that it was accurate. The Eco-drive features make me happy. I need a titanium watch--steel makes me break out in rashes. Citizen watches do everything I need and want a watch to, and does it very well.
Perfect for me, lightweight, easy to read, durable, all things considered its a great value.
