I bought this watch to tell the time of day. This watch looks great in the photo. I’m t is sold and beautiful. But you can’t read the time due to the dial’s color blending into background; indoors or outdoors is the same almost impossible ability to read the time. What a disappointment. I owned it less than one day and knew I’d have to return it. Wholly not acceptable. Very disappointed. I had my first CITIZEN watch 23 years until a lost stop watch push button couldn’t be replaced. I’ll try another CITIZEN watch which has white or legible hands that can be read easily at a glance without eye strain or by maneuvering the watch to catch the light just right to read the time. Watch does not illuminate for night glow which you’d think would be a standard feature. I miss my old CITIZEN. I’m not giving up though. Note to CITIZEN: Please fix the color of the main dials! And don’t let anyone buy this watch without full disclosure. Thanks for allowing candid reviews. But I couldn’t believe the watch dials are almost invisible. Darn it.

People are saying that you can't use it in the dark yes you can. It does illuminates.
Great watch and I love the style/look. The only downside imo is that the fact that it’s a black on black watch and that makes it tough to tell the time if it’s not day time. They should’ve lightened up the hands. The other weird thing is the glow isn’t nearly as bright as my other (silver) nighthawk. Same watch, different color and there is a clear difference in the brightness of the glow. My Silver nighthawk has an indiglow color where my black nighthawk has a regular green glow but again, it’s very dim and doesn’t last long in comparison to my silver nighthawk. Other than that the Nighthawk line is a really good looking watch and keeps time extremely well.

I can’t read the hands in low light, need to have white hands, can’t read it indoors

5 years ago I came across this watch. My everyday time keeper while added style. Easy to read and very user friendly. So glad I bought it and will have for a lifetime. Must have if you don't have it already

I bought this a few months ago and overall it’s a great watch except for one thing that drives me nuts that I thought I could live with. I cannot read the time in low light conditions. Nothing about this watch is “luminous” like they claim. Because of this, I have a habit of checking time with my phone, so this watch is more of a “look good piece” than it is functional. I’d return it if they would take it back, but oh well. I guess I’ll have to do my homework and research whether or not a luminous watch by Citizen is actually what they say it is.
Not my first, nor will it be my last Citizen watch. Beautiful watch with the style, fit, finish, and precision to be expected from Citizen. I've received many compliments on it, and it's a great addition to my collection.
Got this timepiece as a gift a couple of years ago. Great piece of engineering. Bad thought process regarding presentation. Can barely read the face unless in bright light. Hands should have been highlighted with a bright white (lumed) inset as well as hour marks. Good watch. Great looks. Nice piece of jewelry. Bad functionality for actually reading the time.

solid at the meeting, looks good on the lunch date , and even fits perfect with the cigar while discussing business after-hours. Simple,Sturdy, Honorable
Love this watch looks good not my every day watch but is one of my fav ones built vary well and when it is seen people ask about it all the time
I bought this watch sometime around 2 years ago. I do like the watch, looks good. The only issue i have, have a hard time seeing it. Hands blend in with the background. And at night, the illuminated face lasts for less than an hour, then becomes nearly impossible to read the time.
This is my Fourth Citizen and this one goes with all of my wardrobe when I am heading out. Excellent price and this will not be the last one I purchase.
