I was casually browsing on the Macy's website for watches when I stumbled upon Citizen's Corso eco-drive. It instantly piqued my interest due to its stunning yet simple design, so I bought the white dial Corso at Macy's, but I immediately went back to exchange it to for the blue dial as it exudes a sportier yet classy look which perfectly reflects my style. I own another solar-powered watch from Seiko, and I love knowing that I don't have to worry about switching batteries at all for my two watches. I've been wearing it for a few days now and I still can't stop admiring its beauty. The eco-drive has now become my go-to watch for work and day-to-day outings.
Perfect size watch! Received lots of compliments too!
It is very beautiful watch . Will go good with lots of different outfits.
Very nice but don’t pay extra to see day of month, it’s way too small. Everything else about the watch is perfect
This watch is really pretty, but the blue is darker than it looks online. It's more a dark blue/navy color, I was hoping it would be more like a royal blue to replace the previous Citizen watch I own.
The Corso is a smart looking watch. The dark blue background along with the contrast of the hands make it easier to tell the time without my reading glasses, this was my primary purpose for buying this watch. The face is a medium size. Personally, I would have liked to have the face a little larger just for low reading vision reasons. It is water resistant and has a bracket clasp which were prerequisites as well.
I really wanted an Eco-Drive watch and had my eye on this one. It is a beautiful, classic watch and I loved the feature that you could have it sized to fit. While I am totally satisfied with my purchase, I was surprised to discover that instructions on how to set the date/time were not included in the box. You have to go online with your watch's serial number and other details to locate instructions. I find this unnecessarily complicated. Citizen, please just include instructions in the packaging; don't make customers go through so many steps to start using and loving their watch!
I purchased my Corso about a month ago and I love it. It looks super sharp and keeps impeccable time---EXCEPT, I have one complaint. The watch does not come fully charged and it won't keep time accurately until it gets a charge that is near full, which directions says can take up to 55 hours in direct sunlight. At this level, it supposedly keeps accurate time for 180 days, but I haven't gotten to the fullest charge yet. Once charged, I have no doubt I can forget all about maintenance until the sun starts coming out again in the Spring.
A top feature is not needing a battery. Also Citizen has a good reputation and they are quality watches! I love the look of the watch.
