Love the watch. I was bummed when it first launch last year and I could not find it anywhere. But luckily this collector’s item came back and immediately got my hands on one. It’s a more simplistic watch then my other Citizen Blue Angel’s edition, but I still love that it has the calendar day, a chronometer, it has the eco power technology (love this power tech) and the sapphire crystal glass (scratch resistant). I only wear this time piece for light occasions being that it has a leather strap I don’t like to get sweaty with it because it deteriorates faster and in my case it starts smelling a little (learned from past experiences). Overall I’m in love with it and enjoy watching the light sabers move around.
I like the design of the watch and I am a Star Wars Fan, so I bought this watch as a Black Friday deal. What the pictures do not tell you, unfortunately, is that under low light conditions, the watch is impossible to read. The dark hands melt into the background, especially, when they approach the small minute hand circle for the Chronograph function. What makes matters worse, is that the lume is very weak (it has blue and green lume, corresponding to the two light saber themes throughout the watch). I love the textured details on the dial, the light saber hands etc. - it is just not useable as a watch under "non-studio" light conditions. Therefore, unfortunately, I have initiated the return process.
Husband loves the watch! He is a huge Star Wars fan. Only regret is the length of the band is too short for his normal weight 6’2” man.
Everything about this watch had me excited. The subtle looks were right up my alley. Got it and the feel was amazing....and then I went inside the house and wondered how anyone could tell time on it. The pictures are deceiving, making you think the face of the watch is this light beige / khaki color. It is not. It's sadly a LOT more of a darker / muted color. Everything about the face fades in lower light conditions. You can't see the hands when they are up between 11 and 1. The face imaging is lost. The glowing is SUPER cool....I do love that part. I am sadly going to return this because as much as I love the look, it's just too dark and hard to read. It pains me, as I got a great price on it for the May 4th promotion on Amazon, but I will not wear it. Disappointed.
