I really wanted a blue faced watch but Citizen only makes them in ladies’ sizes or mens’ sizes. This one is 33mm and a good size for my 6 inch wrist. The stainless steel is brushed, which is what I like so it’s not too shiny. The mother of pearl is a little flashier than I’d like but it seems to be more subtle because of the design etched into it. It’s lighter weight than the Calendrier which I also loved, so this is more practical for day to day use.
I have been shopping for a new watch for a while, and this one caught my eye with its classic style and mother of pearl backing. It truly looks even more beautiful in person. As with other reviews, my only comments are that the glow in the dark hands can be hard to see without complete darkness. But this has not deterred me from wearing it every day.
My husband bought me the Peyton watch for Christmas. I have been looking for a new Citizen watch specifically for the eco-drive. I thought that I wanted the Calendrier, but when I saw this watch in person I quickly changed my mind. The Calendrier, although a gorgeous watch, suddenly looked too big and too busy to wear day to day. The Peyton is more simplistic but will suit my needs perfectly. Plus the two tone silver and rose gold with the chocolate face just exudes class. I love it.
Love my watch, it was sized perfectly and arrived so quickly. Very happy with it. Thank you!
