This is the most beautiful watch I have ever owned! I love the moonphase dial and the color of the face of the watch. It was easy to order and size. It shipped quickly. It was also easy to set-up. It is a beautiful piece of reliable functional jewelry that I wear everyday. I know it is well made and will last forever. No more digital watches for me. I love my watch.
This watch face looks more purplish with blue, than the photo that looks blue with purple but that is not a bad thing. Its dreamy, its gorgeous. It does get a little bit hard to read when the light is just right because of the white lettering, however, that doesn't bother me- I can tell the time without seeing any numbers, and even if I couldn't, there are the diamond markers that give a beautiful minimalist sparkle. With the day/date/time indicators, I don't need to read the letters anyway- I will get used to where the dials are pointing to be able to know what day it is, what month it is, and to a lesser extent what the date is, but I'm not depending on this watch to tell the date, honestly. It was NOT hard to set, and though it doesn't come with setting instructions, just go to the Citizen website listing for this item and download the instructions and set it according to that. It's actually quite easy to set. This watch is a little bigger of a face than I am used to, and a wider of a band than I am used to. I am a 5'4, petite female with wrists that measure 6.25 inches around. I had four links removed. It is not overpowering, or overly heavy, though it is a little heavier than a leather band watch. I've read reviews where others sent it back because its heavy and hard to set. Neither of those are true in my opinion. I love that the hands illuminate in the dark and that it never needs a battery. Its a very pretty and high quality timepiece. And no I don't work for Citizen, I just wanted a watch with a moon phase dial and this watch is exactly what I wanted and I love it.
I love this timepiece. The moonphase and blue to purple hues of the mother of pearl face are my favorite features. The quality is top notch. I've gotten so many compliments in the short time I've had it. This would make a perfect gift for someone special.
Pros: The mother of pearl clock face and diamond accents are beautiful. I love the hand lumes - a very nice touch. It's a medium size to large-ish watch with good weight, which I love and feels very high quality. And of course, the solar power is a huge sell for me. Cons: The white on mother of pearl clock face makes it hard to read the date or time. I found it very tedious to set the moon phases and absolutely required the online manual to get it right. If you look carefully, the diamond accents do not go all the way around - they are missing on the 3, 6 & 9, which I think is a design flaw. That being said, I LOVE this watch and I am very happy with my purchase. It's at a great price point to be able to collect many, this being my third Citizen Eco-Drive watch. It's feminine, yet stately and serves a lot of function. The moon phases, though difficult to set in my opinion, also offer a touch of whimsy I i really like. I would definitely recommend this timepiece.
Received as a gift and it's amazing. It's feminine and functional. The mother of pearl face is eye catching and the diamond accents are just the right amount of sparkle. The complications are exactly what I needed, month, day, date and lunar cycle. It is also relatively easy to set. I really appreciated the light blue lume on the hands. The bracelet and butterfly clasp are also well done and comfortable. My only criticism would be that in certain lighting the month, day and date are difficult to read but its not a deal breaker. All in all a beautiful and useful watch.
This watch has everything a grown woman needs in a Citizen watch! The only problem was the face is highly reflective making it difficult to see the features. I’m so heavy hearted I had to return it. But Citizen Watch has great customer service. Hopefully, Citizen will have this exact watch with a solid background before Christmas of 2022 so I will have a merry Christmas and reorder this amazing piece for keeps this time. It’s heavier than my other watches, but it’s worth the weight! The price was irresistible because I know the usual quality of Citizen watches. My other Citizen watches can’t do anything near the things this watch does. 4.5 stars that will be 5 stars when Citizen gets a solid background for this exact watch. As you can see from the close up picture of the watch in the box, the awesome features are blocked by the background glare. Other than that, best Citizen watch EVER! I’ll be back. LOL I’m tired of using my iPhone as a watch.
Just recently got this watch and honestly it is so much prettier in person. The face has hues of blue, lavender and pink. It dresses up or down very easily. It feels great on the wrist, not heavy. The little diamonds sparkle in the sun. The ecodrive is a must for me. I refuse to buy a watch where it needs a new battery replacement, I find it a waste of time, money and the old batteries create unnecessary pollution, especially now when you have Citizen who make watches with Ecodrive. Thank Citizen for making this amazing and beautiful watch! Will wear it for many decades to come.
It’s a beautiful watch. My wife loves it. Any man would too. But she needed a satellite wave watch which she wished this had. Although this watch has many features plus diamonds and pearls, she was very happy and proud to have it. For travel I will get her a radio frequency watch that she can wear along with this one. Please make the satellite wave beautifully in this watch too. Women desperately need the gps for airline time change in travels. Don’t make us have to buy extra travel important devices. This one would have been enough. Thank you for the beautiful designs.
My husband purchased this version of the Calendrier line from Citizen. It is very accurate, and not needing a battery change is a plus. But let's talk about the beauty of this baby for a minute. No photo does it justice: the mother-of-pearl face is luminous and sets off the diamonds on the face so we'll. I love that the diamonds are inside the watch, making it easier to wear with less worry. Very practical and functional. You do have to adjust for dates when it is a non-31-day month, but it's very simple and easy to adjust. The moon phases give a delicate, almost Gilded Age vibe. But this is also unisex. I've read a lot of reddit threads about guys wanting to wear it. It's a great watch for your collection. If you're thinking of getting it, do it. Citizen wins at this one.
