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 had ordered this warch online through Kohls and did an in store pick up and was very excited to see it in person. When I got there I opened it first before leaving the store to check it out and was glad I did because I was super bummed. Everthing about it was awesome except for how dark it was. I loved the color of the picture and thought it would have slight hints of blue in it and the hands would have shades of silver for a sleek look but it turned out to look black on black on black which makes it very hard to read. I returned it and left with no watch. The only reason im giving it 2 stars is because of the quality. Loved the weight and size of the face but just couldnt get over color.
I bought it 3 years ago. love everything about this watch!!!! everything still works like day one. I work outdoors and active outdoor life, its the first watch to hold up to my lifestyle. The dial easy to read day/night. Illuminate works all the time in the night.
This watch was a gift from my daughter so it has "meaning" other than that it is completly non FUNCTIONAL, it has soo much dark in it that renders it useless night or day....i actually HATE this watch.....guess i should carry a magnifieng glass...
I've had this watch for more than 4yrs and still running strong. I can say that this watch has been very good to me. I got this watch as a Gift from my Wife. Very nice slick watch. Goes with almost every attire. Love my Citizen's Watch.
My boyfriend absolutely loved it, so I loved it as well!
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 bought this as my first Citizen watch, and starter into "entry level luxury". The aesthetics caught my eye, but Eco Drive sold me. I was in love with this watch from the start, but slowly fell out of love after enduring some issues, and finding one major design flaw which has cost me $ in repairs. Pros: Stealth look, solid feel on your wrist, and Eco Drive! Cons: For starters, as others mentioned, you can't see much without full lighting. The band also began to wear, to where I now have a "two tone" band just a few years later (the coating is not very resilient). The crystal scratches fairly easily as well. Finally, the BIG flaw....the stem of the crown sits WAY too loose into the bezel. There is WAY too much play between the two. Because of this, two to three time zone changes a year have managed to break the stem off requiring nonwarranteed repairs TWICE now. I have since went to a Navihawk A-T and this watch sits unused for fear of breaking it again.
I saw this watch at the airport when flying out on holiday. It immediately took my notice and looked even better on my wrist. I already owned a rose gold Citizen Eco Drive watch and this like my other was different from the norm and stood out. It has and still is a very good watch. It is stylish comfortable to wear and very well built. I now own two further Eco Drives and both this s the rose gold one are kept for those special occasions. Totally very happy with these and thoroughly recommended.
