I love the watch. However, they could have a better job on the strap it's horribly awkward and extremely uncomfortable. The time peice rates the 5 stars.
Love this watch. It goes with pretty much any outfit. I wear it with slacks, dress shoes, tie and button-up shirt to work almost daily, but I can easily wear it with casual clothes. The leather band with green face and gold accents are fantastic. I've gotten many compliments on it.
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.
As a collector and enthusiast with a range of timepieces spanning from $50 beaters to $7,000 horological masterpieces, I must say this watch is an absolute standout—not just within its price bracket but across the board. Its build quality rivals that of far more expensive brands, making it a true contender in the world of fine watchmaking. The rose gold case exudes a level of sophistication that perfectly complements the rich brown leather strap, creating a timeless aesthetic that feels both modern and classic. The butterfly clasp is a revelation—precisely engineered, smooth in operation, and a testament to the thoughtfulness in design that often escapes even premium manufacturers. At its heart is a high-quality Citizen movement, powered by their renowned Eco-Drive technology. This combination of reliability, innovation, and sustainability is a hallmark of exceptional craftsmanship. It's not just a watch; it’s a statement of impeccable taste at a price point that feels almost too good to be true. For anyone seeking a high-quality timepiece without the exorbitant price tag, this is an opportunity you should not pass up. Whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting your journey into the world of watches, this piece is a worthy addition to any collection. Highly recommended!

Too complicated to setup and the buckle is hard too do as well plan on returning it.
I bought this watch for our 3rd year wedding anniversary that is supposed to be a leather gift. I was skeptical about the gold as it is a bit more bronze than I anticipated but it is absolutely stunning. The green is subtle but an eye catcher and all the features are so neat and exactly what my husband looks for in a watch. Every time he wears it he instantly receives compliments. It’s thick and heavy showing its amazing quality and the leather strap is a clasp rather than a traditional strap. This is a huge plus because traditional straps wear out fast with all the pulling and tugging when putting them on. We can always rely on our citizen watches for durability, statement, and chic design. Perfect for any occasion. We have 5 watches combined and love every single one.
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.
Beautiful, stylish, and always on time. NEVER SCRATCHES!!!
