I got this as a month ago as a gift. I didn't like watches before the nighthawk. It's great. I've worn it every day since
I received this watch as a gift from my wife, which I picked out myself. I wear it everyday, religiously.
I bought my Citizen Nighthawk about three months ago. It is my first watch I ever purchased and I could not be happier. Everytime I look down and see it on my wrist I love it even more. The watch is perfect. It's can be dressed up like I wear it every day(business dress) but then I have no problem wearing it causal either. I love the look but it's also very comfortable! Overall I'm very pleased with this watch and have no regrets purchasing it!
I had this on my Christmas wish list a few years ago my family pitched in and got it for me best watch I've ever had fits perfect I have since purchased another citizen watch and even more in love with it
I purchased this watch years ago on sale at a local Kay Jewelers, it was priced $200 or $300 off the MSRP of $499. It's been worn through two combat deployments and years before and since. I am rough on my watches and outside of the band being worn and the crystal slightly scratched from repeatedly being hit by steel, it has held up wonderfully.
I buy my watch 3 years ago and this week sometinght was rang 2 times.
This watch is mechanically great and looks amazing. It's hard to see indoors or in dim light. In complete darkness the lume is alright and did the job. The only problem is this mineral glass scratches so easily. This should come with a sapphire installed.

I’ve owned this watch for a few months now and what a beautiful watch it is. I initially noticed this watch when I purchased my first ever Citizen, but I didn’t have the money at the time to get it. With black being my favorite color in many things, I knew I wanted to own this watch one day. Now that I do, I’m very happy with it. My only complaint (like many other peoples) is that the watch can be hard to read at times. However, I don’t mind much as I have many other Citizens that aren’t blacked out and are easier to read. Another small gripe is the ion plating. I don’t wear this watch as much as some others I own because I’ve seen pictures of how other Nighthawks and how terrible their bands look when scratched. So for that reason, this watch inevitably won’t be an everyday wear for me.
I have 6 citizen watches. I actually just bought another one yesterday, the mens corso. My nighthawk i bought about 2 years ago and i thought the hands just didnt light up until i realized i got a bad watch. Ill leave it under the sun for a week just so it lights up for a second. Wish it worked as presented. If you guys can do anything that would be greet! I have had one of your watches for 10 years
I've wanted to get a citizen watch for many years, this Nighthawk is my first. This watch is beautiful. The build quality is above reproach. Warning to those who try to use it in low light, you just can't see the dial and that's okay if you know about it before hand. Also I got my size off by a little and they sent me an extra link no questions asked. The replacement of the link was super simple. Great watch, great customer service.
I’ve owned this Watch now for about a month and started collecting citizen watches about 5 months ago, the main issue that people have with these watches is that you can’t read the dial, and while that is true if it’s absolutely dark outside in any other condition I never have trouble. The watch has a very expensive and strong feeling to it with just the right amount of weight. I’m hoping to further my collection soon and get more of the nighthawk line up in the future! Great job citizen, you’ve created another masterpiece!
Im very disappointed in Citizen. I bought this watch about 2 years ago and the watch’s battery hasn’t held a charge for longer than 2 hours since I brought it home. I took it back to the retailer who then sent it to Citizen for repair. It was returned, apparently fixed, but it’s still not working. At this point, I wear it because it looks amazing with all my suits. Not for telling time. What a disappointing experience.
My favorite watch by far, I’ve been working on the oil industry for 23 years and ruined a few watches out here. This is the first watch that I’ve slammed up against any and everything out here and it hasn’t scratched or broken. Very good quality watch look forward to buying several more.
I like my citizens watch my only compliant is the hands are suppose to glow in the dark. This is part of the night hawk feature they don't. I have left the watch in light for days to try and charge up the battery. I have been to multiple places that were aurthized deals no one can help. Thanks, Ben
Love the look of this watch, I wish the fluorescent part would hold up longer: after 3 h of direct sunlight the quadrant was sufficiently lit, after 30 min I couldn't see anything unless I had a light pointed directly to it. This watch is a daytime watch.
Got this watch for Christmas and have enjoyed it so far. There are a few downfalls however, the second hand doesn't go around like on a normal watch and the hands on the watch do no allow any visibility at night.
I am very happy with this watch. Great style and function. My only criticism is the date is small and hard to read. All in all I love this watch.
Love this watch, I always get compliments on the black on black look. The only thing I would change is make the hands and numbers glow in low light.
The Good: I have had this watch for half of the year so far, I love the watch and it helps me stay on schedule with breaks and other time sensitive things that I don't want to set phone timers for, I always use the stopwatch when cooking. The Bad: I am constantly worried that the pin, holding the clasp of the band is going to break so im cautious when removing or putting on, also the luminescence of the watch only works if you go from direct light into the dark, unlike the original radian illumination of the 60s-80s that worked 24/7 this illumination has me pulling out my phone in the dark or straining to get a reflection off of the hands for a good read on the watch, otherwise I love the watch. I will keep it for as long as I can
I was going through my grandpas things and I found this,I put it in the light for a hit and one of the hands are working on the bottom circle but the others arent and the crown on the right side doesnt come out, is it possible to send it to citizen for them to fix it and is it even worth it or should I get a new one?
I love this watchs look, feel, and functionality but a little over a year after I purchased it the clasp gave out. My jeweler told me I would have to replace the whole bracelet. Haven't worn it since.
I love the overall design of the watch, its very nodern and matches well with many outfits. I'd say this is a versatile watch that has use a daily driver. The only problems I have with it are that the chronometer dials are a bit hard to read and there's little to no luminescence on the dials of the watch for nighttime use.
