Got this as a gift for Christmas and I love the style and the size, however the black coloring rubs off of the band very easily. I had it for about a week and the coloring is already faded and the metal underneath is showing. Not sure if it is painted or not but sorta upsetting knowing how much these cost. Otherwise love the watch.
came with no "how to" set and use, it came dead, yes dead, not set, and didnt fit and i used their ruler.....
I'm very disappointed with this watch. I bought it because I like the day/date dials on the Drive models. However, the actual watch is different from the photos. Citizen's images show that days & dates all painted white. On the actual watch, only Sunday & 31 are painted (see all the review photos if you're not sure what I mean). My vision is not terrific; I can read the white painted numbers, but not the unpainted ones. I thought at first mine was defective, but if you look at the images they all look like this. It makes me wonder if other Citizen watches also vary from the artwork. I'm very disappointed with this purchase.
