I bought this a few years ago as a mountaineering watch that matched the color of my favorite softshell jacket and pants. Ive been wearing it nearly every day since 2019. Since then I have also started using the altimeter while paragliding. The compass is a bit finicky and is majorly affected by my 18650-powered devices when in close proximity, but that's just another reason to carry a regular compass when its that important. It would be nice if this watch also had a perpetual calendar and if the part of the strap that holds down the excess watchband beyond the clasp was made of something that did not break as easily, but overall it has met my expectations.
I wanted a complication you can't get on a mechanical watch. I'm a hiker and need a compass where there is no phone service, it's cloudy and teperatures hover around 0⁰. It might be raining, snowing or I might have to swim. This is the watch for me since I prefer an analog display. The only gripe I have is it really needs a screw down crown.
This watch is quite the statement. It is consistent with the other Citizen Watches that I own. Brovo!
The watch looks great on my wrist it’s everything I expected!
