This is probably the most expensive watch I’ll ever justifiably own. That being said, this is a thing of beauty. Radio-control feature is very near that syncs up your watch with an atomic clock, making it very accurate. I can confirm this because our work place clocks does the same, and it’s literally in sync down to the seconds hand moving at the same time. Perpetual calendar is also a neat feature, and also the world time zone features, handy when traveling. The only downside is the silly looking leather strap that tries to imitate a metal clasp. I happily replaced those with a Citizen traditional Leather Strap, and now it’s feels better on the wrist. Hopefully Citizen can replace the original leather strap with something more traditional, as it is the only thing that sucks about the watch. 4 Stars, only because of the strap I have to replace.
First and foremost, this watch is beautiful in style and esthetically pleasing. I bought it because of its appearance and because it is eco-driven with PCAT functionality. So, no battery and perfect timekeeping. On the minus side, the hands and hour markers should have a Tritium foundation. Also, the PDF instructions manual could have been written much better, emphasizing clarity. With use and patience, the complex instructions can be overcome. However, it is a foolish mistake not to spend a few more dollars using Tritium during actual production for the great benefit of the end user.
This CITIZEN PCAT watch is a gem. It looks terrific, but not gawdy. It has all the features of a good chronograph watch and is linked to receive atomic time signals. The price makes this purchase even better.
The clasp keeps coming undone on my husbands wrist. Other than that it’s a beautiful watch and he absolutely loves it.
