I’ve had this watch for 7 years. No problems, great watch. Although, it does loose 1-2 seconds per year
The Citizen Brycen (CA0648-09L) is a beautifully crafted timepiece that blends classic styling with modern functionality. Its deep blue dial and bezel, framed by a stainless-steel case and paired with a dark brown leather strap, create a sophisticated yet versatile look that complements both casual and professional attire. The design rivals watches at significantly higher price points, making it an exceptional value. Powered by Citizen’s Eco-Drive technology, the movement is precise and reliable, eliminating the need for battery replacements or daily charging. I appreciate the simplicity of wearing a watch that focuses purely on timekeeping—no alarms, notifications, or digital distractions—just timeless craftsmanship. The chronograph and tachymeter functions are well-executed and add a sporty edge, even if I don’t use them frequently. They enhance the overall aesthetic and speak to the watch’s multifunctional appeal. There are two areas where the experience could be improved: - **Low-light readability**: The luminous hands fade relatively quickly, which can make nighttime visibility a challenge. - **Date window size**: The calendar display is quite small and tends to blend into the dial, making it difficult to read at a glance. Overall, the Brycen is a stylish, dependable, and thoughtfully designed watch that I’m proud to wear as my everyday timepiece.
Excelente opción, me encantó. Muy bonito y práctico. Elegante y de gran calidad !!!
Nice watch. Good look Band feels cheap and hard like plastic. Expect something a little more Strap makes it a disappointment l
I loved it, too beautiful.
Excellent watch as usual.
My fourth citizen, the eco-drive is a big feature. The Brycen is an all around beautiful piece great for any occasion. One question is why does citizen continue with the date feature?. Too small to even see and everyone has phones that display date and time.
The watch is casual, yet stylish. The watch is expertly made, and the finishes match most my work clothing and casual wear. I am a blue fan, so color of the bezel is what drew me to this watch.
Had this for a month now and I really like this timepiece. Worn it most days, the case size is nice, a decent weight to it, without being over large and clunky. Blue dial color is bright and vibrant, hands are easy to read. As others have remarked, the strap length was disappointing, in that it was too short. I have large wrists, but not huge and have never had a problem with other brand watches. On this one the strap would only buckle up on the first notch. I ordered a black leather replacement, with blue stitching to match the dial. Not a major issue, but at the price one would think another half-inch of leather strap would not be too much to include. So Five stars of the case & design, but only 4 for the strap.
Looks great as an everyday watch but can also dress up when needed. Large diameter and strap make this a simple but bold look.
