This watch purchase was to replace a 20 year old Tag Link Chronograph, for +- every day use. While I enjoyed the nuances of the prior automatic watch, and the look of the Chronograph (the functions of which I rarely used....), I was always having to check to see if it was precise on time or needed winding after a day or two of rest. I looked at Tag, Omega and Breitling Quartz versions, for a change of pace from the automatic. All were 2-3k, with very limited choice of Quartz > Automatic. It felt like each brand viewed their Quartz versions as "lesser than." I researched the Citizen choices and purchased this watch on the website, not having seen it in person. I was intrigued by the use of titanium and the Eco Drive Radio Controlled device. The watch has radio controlled time regulation from six atomic clocks. I was curious what it would be like to have a watch that always had the precise time and correct date... I also liked the look of the moon phase. The background is just enough of a difference, without being too much. The watch is beautiful and well made. It goes nicely with casual clothes or a full suit in a business setting. I have had numerous compliments. The only difference is the weight. As advertised, the titanium is more durable but lighter. When I first put it on, I was worried it might feel too light, just in terms of comparison to prior stainless steel bands. But after five days of wearing, I can attest it is actually much more comfortable. Its reserve is not 45 hours, or 90 hours. It is 6 months. From my perspective, the look of this watch is equal or better to the other competitors I mentioned. It keeps perfect time. If you must have a watch with a different name, I get it. But I must say, I am really enjoying doing something copletely different.
Having had a Citizen watch with more functions than I could use, and after several years, it finally needed some serious repairs, so off it went. My wrist felt naked without the thick, old watch, so I went shopping for a new Citizen. I wanted one that told the day and date, but was spot-on accurate. I found it in this super titanium model has a lithium battery that is kept recharged by any light that strikes the face. It is kept accurate daily with the WWV radio time signal, and internal workings change the 12 hour and 60 seconds hands, day/date, day of week, follows AM/PM, can be switched to southern or northern hemisphere, and tracks the phases of the moon, with a moving disk, in the manner of my grandfather clock. With the case being made of super titanium, the watch and link band weighs only 3.5 oz. and it rides only 3/8" above my wrist, and doesn't snag on my choir cassock like the older watch always did. And, although I take it off when I shower, it is water resistant to 10 atmospheres (333 ft.)
Very pleased with the whole purchase process. My watch was delivered within days of ordering and it was sized properly and day, date, time and moon phase were all set. I’m a happy customer!
I can’t say enough god things about this particular watch. It looks great, the watch arrived on time and very well packaged. The atomic clock sync works great, I live in NC and it works, just wait for the nightly sync if it doesn’t work during daytime hours. Love the functionality, moon phase looks great and works great, all the features Citizen chose to implement are useful and make this watch a must have for every day.
There are several things I love about this watch: - It’s beautiful - It synchronizes automatically with the atomic clock - The date window and day of the week dial are readable. (In many watches, the date window is microscopic and impossible to read without a magnifying glass) - The moon phase indicator is cool, and you don’t have to be an astronomy geek to appreciate it.
This is by far my favorite watch. The things it can do that it fit in just one watch and the self setting option, the accuracy the moon phase. I have never seen something so good at such an attainable price and it’s a crime they are not talking about this more. My only complaint is that I wish there was a women’s design version of this. I’m a female and I want an elegant sporty atomic watch with moon phase.
A very classy watch, great for an active lifestyle, and a great elegant look for a night out. Highly recommend it!!
Bought this to replace my Calendrier and I wish I had found this first. Half the weight but twice the watch. Atomic moon phase is epic. The Calendrier moon phase I had was always off but not anymore. And for the price I genuinely can’t think of a better way watch.
Saw this on email from you guys! Beautiful watch! Ordering was easy and straightforward. Price was reasonable. Delivery was quick and it arrive in perfect condition. Thank you Citizen.
Where do I start? The watch is absolutely beautiful. I'm a huge space nerd and own a dobsonian telescope. I love stargazing and everything sci-fi. The moon phase is such a cool feature. And the moon backdrop is stunning. Combined with radio syncing with an atomic clock, you have perfect time. I should add, I live in Riverside County California and the watch receives the nightly signal just fine, even in a box. The Super Titanium gives the watch a feather weight feel. Last with Eco-drive, it will run for years. This watch is eco-friendly, will run forever, is super tough, and has unrivaled precision. It is almost a Perfect Blend of technology and timekeeping. My only complaint is the dead-beat seconds. Seriously, that's it. I pray Citizen doesn't solve the Eco-drive/deadbeat seconds because my bank account would be devastated.
This is if i had to guess, somewhere between 7 or 10th Citizen time piece. And thus far my favorite. Don't tell the other pieces. Lol.
I bought this watch because I fell in love with the blue dial, story, and technology that this watch represents. I own a Navi Hawk that I've had for 25 years that never failed and now I've added the moon to my wrist! The one suggestion I would give is to remove "Titanium" and "radio controlled" from the dial and replace it with Tsuki-yogi, the name of the watch and 30th, to celebrate the anniversary of the moon technology. Other than that this is a dream timepiece. 👍🏽🙏🏽
Best watch in my Citizen collection of atomics. Been wanting this one for a while and it does not disappoint. The dial contrast makes it easy to read at a glance. The watch is insanely light, almost forget it’s on your wrist. Bought is for the 1st ever atomic moon-phase and the beauty of the design.

I have a number of Citizen Eco-Drive radio-controlled watches and love the way they never need batteries or time adjustment unless I travel to a different time zone. But this is my favorite of them all. The titanium case is light and beautiful, the hands are easy to read, and it holds a solar charge well, even through the Winter Solstice. Best of all is that the current moon phase is always displayed. I love being able to glance at it, day or night, and know (for example) that the moon is almost full.
Stylish and functional best summarizes this timepiece. The titanium case makes wearing it a delight without the weight on the wrist. Other features that I sought in a watch is the Eco drive feature and the plus of moon phases. Easier to anticipate the werewolves!
Once I saw this watch...I knew it was the one. I just handed down my Blue Angels a-t to my son for his 18th birthday (which he loves.) I know that this one will last for the next 18 years as well. The white moon face is stellar and love the weight and feel of the titanium.
Accurate Moon phase watch with excellent timekeeping and solar power technology.

The second moon phase watch I've purchased. Love the look of this watch. The atomic time is fantastic and i love how all aspects of this watch work together. Great purchase. Looks amazing.
This is a beautiful timepiece, loaded with features. Setting was easy and the watch face is well designed and easy to read. I have several Citizen watches and this is my new favorite.
Love the watch. It looks great and I cannot think of a watch at this price that could give such accurate time. Date and time are based on atomic clocks.
The Perfect Moon Dial Watch! Atomic time makes things very easy.
