Good, not great.

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.

I can only read it in bright light settings

This is my 4th citizen watch. I love them, great designs, long lasting and never fail. The draw back to this one is that you can not see the hands in lower light settings. I wish the hands were white or a brighter color so you can read them.

Watch hands blend too much with face!

I love the look of the watch, but have a hard time telling the time because the watch hands blend too much with the face. Hands should have red color like the stopwatch hand. Does not have a night time glow either.

Can’t read in the dark

Looks great. Feels great. Fits well. But impossible to read in the dark or near dark

Needing Watch Links

I love my watch, but finding replacement links is proving quite difficult.

Great watch but tough to see if dark/dusk

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 a nice indiglo 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.

Comfortable to wear, looks great

Bought this watch and had to return it. The hour and minute hands were hard to see in anything but a well lit room. I could not see the hands in a room with moderate light and the luminescent hands did not stay glowing more than a couple of minutes.
