I haven't been outside of the country yet, but so far, this watch does everything it's supposed to. I haven't had any of the problems I've read about in other reviews. I have no big complaints. Lumination could be better. I love the design. Half length band links makes for perfect sizing. Very comfortable on my 8-1/2" wrist with one half-link removed. High contrast dial
Just got back from a family trip, took this watch specifically because of the time zone changes, it never changed. After three days the only time it was accurate was when we returned home. You can’t even manually change the time. If the main feature doesn’t work, what’s the point? Also the glow in the dark features don’t light up very much in the dark. Great looking watch, but what’s the point if the main feature doesn’t work?
Can't get watch to adjust for daylight savings wish I never bought it
Its a sweet watch, love the color, works perfectly.
I bought this watch a month ago and I am very disappointed. By far the worst citizen watch I ever owned. It is clunky and complicated and the gps feature does not work as advertised. The hands do not illuminate so seeing the time in a dark place is out of the question. If your looking for a new citizen watch bypass this one.
I bought this watch about three weeks ago. Initially I wanted to purchase a radio/atomic but needed more flexibility when traveling and when not within relatively close proximity to a transmitter. When I do travel, some of the places I go to are at the limit of the European transmitter. Probably would work but why take a chance when I could get a Satellite GPS watch that works anywhere in the world, with a touch of a button? Yes, a button or two need to be pressed. The time change doesn't happen automatically like with a smart watch linked to a phone while traveling through time zones ( if there is reception on the phone of course). The watch is very light for not being titanium. It is part of my watch rotation since I do have 5-6 other watches which serve different functions. Most are automatics with one being quartz. Like others said, it isn't very legible at night since the lume covers only the tip of hour/minute hands. I do worry about the watch band getting scratched being black stainless steel, but after wearing it 5-6x all day long, I haven't noticed any change. The watch does not come with any instructions but it isn't hard to set after watching some online tutorials. I always liked the idea of set it and forget it watch such as Citizens Eco drive watches. While I love the automatics, if not placed on automatic winders, they need constant setting. Quartz watches are ok-ish but that one time you need it and the battery is dead... This is my second Citizen Eco Drive, the first one being a 2008 perpetual calendar. That one worked about 4 years and had to be sent to Citizen for power/battery replacement ( under warranty). The second time, it only worked for about one year but I believe it was my fault since I kept it in a storage watch box, in a closet, for more than one year. Allegedly, that can kill an Ecodrive because I was never able to bring it back to life. I am hoping this one will last much longer and I won't make the mistake of storing it for extended periods of time in the dark.
This is a nice watch, and worked great for me when I received it, but as others have mentioned, the combination of the dark dial and green hands makes this watch too hard to read in anything less than optimal lighting. I am returning this one and buying the old model which has better visibility.
Nice looking watch. Does not set time very well. Having to set manually when changing time zones
Just recently purchased this watch. Looks great and the features work.
I bought this watch in 2018, and loved it....until I went on vacation to Australia and New Zealand. The watch couldn't find the time zone. Luckily I also had an old Seiko with me. I had to use that watch until we returned to the states. It corrects well in Hawaii. But If you want to travel to other places be careful. It may not correct for where you are.
The satellite feature is not working at all, I tried to correct it several times by watching the video and reading the instructions but neither were helpful. Plus mostly you have to stand in the sun to see the darn thing. Could they make it any darker?
