I wanted a solar chrono for outdoor activities and did significant research on Seikos and Citizens. This specific model was ultimately an easy choice and a better, more conservative option for my needs than the alternative (and still very popular) camo version. It has the build and quality of a $1,000+ watch and absolutely blows away every USA and JDM Seiko solar I considered.
This watch is great. It fits well on the wrist, the luminescence glow is not that bright but is still readable in most situations and the date window can be hard to see at night but otherwise this watch looks and feels tough. I feel like I don't have to be too carful wearing this and won't have to worry about every little bump.
Great choice all my citizens watches are a great value and work fantastic
