I wore the previous model for 10 years. I loved it. I still do. I only bought a new one because the band broke on my old one. I was excited to see that you enlarged the glass area to now cover all of the outside numbers that were previously exposed to wear and tear and fading away. But, I have to be honest the new model hands are now white with a border of black. The previous model was white surrounded by chrome. With the new model, I really almost cant tell what time it is simply because youve made the hands harder to see, especially in low light situations. I struggle constantly to gain the basic info from the watch which is… what the time is, simply because youve made it harder to see it. Did I love my old watch? Yes. Do I love the new model? Sorry, no.
What an amazing watch. Great dark color weight and feel. Perfect amount of technology in a traditional watch. 20 Bar, Atomic Time/Cal, Chrono, Alarm, and sapphire glass. Everything you need in a forever watch. Very happy.
I thought and thought about what watch to order. And for the money and quality, this watch kept standing out to me. Soon as I bit the bullet and bought the watch, I absolutely have no regrets. This is a great, quality sturdy piece I'd recommend to anyone
Absolutely love the design of this PCAT, the blue accents and dark band are an excellent combination and a great add to the growing Citizen collection.
This is a great piece added to my collection. It was a gift from my wife and I absolutely love it.
I’ve had this watch for over 6 years. It works as well now as when new. Due to the years of almost daily wear it definitely shows the superficial wear and tear of an adventurist lifestyle, but the crystal is unmarred, the face as clear and looks brand new. If you want a watch that works long and hard through all kinds of conditions, never needs to be adjusted or serviced, I highly recommend it.
I got this for my husband for our 10 year anniversary. He’s never had an automatic watch. He’s over the moon with it. It’s classy, stunning, it works amazingly well. Some people complain about it being hard to set up. Really? This is not a smart watch that’ll do everything for you. This is a great watch that’ll keep time and other things for you after you set it up. My husband found the manual, spent some time reading it and playing with the watch and it’s working great. He’s so happy with it and so am I. He looks like a wealthier man than what he is! Haha! 100% recommended.
Love that the way this watch works, and the way it sits on my wrist. This is the 3rd Citizen I have added to my collection.

Accurate to a t comfortable to wear nice addition to my collection
I purchased the watch last week as an early birthday gift for myself and after carefully researching the watch, I finally bought it. The watch was so nice, a friend of mine actually purchased a similar Citizen watch. Great watch, awesome features, and impressive build quality.

Bought this watch about a month ago. Beautiful design and I love the PCAT. The only reason I give it 4 and not 5 stars, is the lack of one feature that is described ...the dual time zone. There is no such thing on this watch, the only thing regarding time zones on this watch is the switching between time zones and set is a preferred. That's it, No dual time zone.
Citizen Response
Gift for my hubby...beautiful watch... he loves it.. however, be forewarned.. it is a VERY difficult watch to set. Was all packed and set to return when I stopped at our local jeweler to check if he could set the watch. He did.. even he advised it would probably take a week or so. The jeweler is a huge fan of Citizen even though Citizen has basically made it unaffordable for the local mom and pop to sell their products anymore......
I love this watch. I bought an Eco-Drive watch about 12 years ago and it's still going, I decided to buy the PCAT because I liked the looks and was ready for something with a few fewer dings in it. I have not been disappointed by the PCAT, the radio function for setting the time works perfectly and was easy to use. The watch is beautiful, the grey with the blue accents just look great and this watch looks appropriate in a suit or in a t-shirt and jeans. I only have two complaints; the date is set very far back in the face so it's a little hard to see if you are looking at it at an angle, the only other problem I have is that the hour hand and the minute hand are a little too close in size and shape making it a little difficult at time to tell which is which (especially in the dark when you are relying on the glow in the dark paint to see where they are).
Great Watch- I am very pleased. The band clasp seems to be somewhat flimsy and my impression is it might require replacement someday, however my overall satisfaction with the watch outweighs said annoyance
I bought this watch about a year ago now and still like it. Very nice build quality and feels nice on the wrist. Only con for me was that it is NOT simple to understand how to set this watch, however once its set right, the radio control feature will keep everything in order for you. Even daylight savings time will automatically adjust, and even a leap year will not be a problem. I found a video on youtube with detailed instructions on how to set this watch, and I saved so I can always refer to it in the future. Great watch overall and worth the Price Tag in my opinion. Oh and make sure to keep this watch in some sort of light even when being stored.
very nice but hard to understand how to set everything wish you would explain it a little better you do not say to much other then push the nobs
Order Sunday 3/30/2025, in hand (on wrist) Wednesday 4/2/2025 with the adjusted band at my request. Watch looks great, and I am happy with my decision.
What an amazing watch. Great dark color weight and feel. Perfect amount of technology in a traditional watch. 20 Bar, Atomic Time/Cal, Chrono, Alarm, and sapphire glass. Everything you need in a forever watch. Very happy.
This is my second Citizen watch. My first was unrepairable after 19 years. Citizen watches are amazing craftsmanship. Customer service is outstanding as well. Very pleased.
Very satisfied with the PCAT. Looks great, wears great. Had issue with the requested sizing, and customer service was helpful in resolving the issue. Overall, very happy with this PCAT and the Citizen's brand.
