Amazing watch if you are even thinking about buying it do so. Compliments left and right. Super vibrant colors. The band is high quality and even smells great XD
I received this watch at Christmas and at first was very skeptical. Reason being, i had never seen a dial with this design and color scheme. To me, the honey color watchband didn't go well with the color. Boy was I wrong!! Started receiving compliments that same day, waiter, store clerk, folks at work, wow. Didn't realize how great this looks.
While I'm not a watch specialist, this has to be one of the most beautiful watches available within this price range. The first Citizen watch I received had a black face and silver band that appears to have been discontinued. But this is by far my favorite, as the other one seemed to have a very "normal" look, and didn't really stand out. The intricate detail in this watch has me looking down at least every hour just to see if I missed anything before. The weight of the watch is very comfortable, and the fit is as close to perfect as I could ask. Most importantly, the colors of the watch and band together leave me amazed at my decision. I would definitely recommend this watch to anyone who is on the edge of making a decision.
Completely satisfied. Only gets 4 stars because the back of the watch doesn't match the product image.
Amazing watch, exactly what I was looking for. The face is textured in a nice way and the watch works great. The only minor detail is that only the hour and minute hands have glow in the dark paint, not the hour markers. A very minor detail.
I am enjoying my new watch! This is my second citizen watch (lost my first one). Two comments: one, it doesn’t appear that the luminaries on the hands and on the hour markers are bright enough at night. Two, the wrist band seems to be small for me. Don’t know if there’s a replacement or a better way to measure it. This is my second watch ever so take my review with a grain of salt.
Appearance: + The look is bold and contemporary. The size is impressive. It's an eye catcher! - In real life, the shiny features make the watch difficult to read. The face has a cheap plastic look. The size is a problem for my small wrist (7" circumference), but you will need a larger band if your wrist is over 8". Operation: + It's pretty much like any other Eco Drive. You have to manually advance the date on short months, but that's not a surprise. - Full sun is recommended for a full charge, but even in Pennsylvania, the watch will get too hot if you lay it in full sun. It's probably OK on your wrist since your skin will limit the temperature. It seems to charge more slowly than the watches with "behind the face" solar cells. Bottom Line: The watch is more of a fashion accessory than a practical timepiece. At the current low price, it can be one of many such watches in your "wardrobe". If you want to make a fashion statement, then you should consider this watch. If you're a horological geek, then you may wish to choose a different watch from the seemingly endless models of Citizen watches available.
I brought this watch 6 weeks ago I did everything the PDF said to do more then once. When get the date set and follow the instructions on setting the days the days. The days change half through the day to the next day, had other tech people look at it still not right, not happy would like an exchange
Overpriced and not worth $200 I paid. Poorly made. Unimpressive.
