Beautiful watch with very nice details, but found it hard to adjust to my wrist width. One link made the difference between too loose and a little too snug. I also expected the color to be more on the purple end versus blue, that said, it's still very beautiful.
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.

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.
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.
This watch is absolutely beautiful. I was tired of a smart watch vibrating on my wrist all day. This watch had all I needed, time and date.
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.
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.

I've been eyeing this watch since my Bulova was ruined by a jeweler when getting a new battery. I'm a nurse so I need a watch that is functional with a second hand. When I saw this watch I fell in love with the mother of pearl face. I was able to find it at a brick and mortar store that is a citizen authorized store. I have a large wrist so I wanted to make sure I didn't have any trouble with the sizing. It fit perfectly without any modifications! The clasp is a double clasp which takes a little while to get used to but I'm sure it will become second nature quickly. The face is a little lighter in color and closer to purple and iridescent green than what the website shows but regardless it's still beautiful. If you want a watch with a larger face then just get it! I never have to ask the day of the week or month again! And as a nurse it's not a bad thing to know when a full moon is coming up!

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.

Classy watch that goes with any outfit! Glad with the purchase.
I gifted a Citizen Eco-Drive Women's Watch - EX1102-55W to my wife three years ago. She has a large collection of watches for herself but she found this watch to be so unique and it was the best one she liked. Unfortunately she lost it in a bag which was in transit. By any chance, will you have this available anywhere. Will appreciate your assistance to get this one.
Beautiful in every aspect. I feel so special when wearing it!
Firstly, the watch is gorgeous. I absolutely love it. Unfortunately, after a few months of wearing it, the crystal was completely scratched up, almost opaque. I do wear it every day and everywhere, but I always have with my watches, and this is the first time it has ever happened to me. I sent it back for a new crystal, but I'm sure it will just happen again, so I guess I won't wear it as much. Really disappointed.
Citizen Response
The Citizen watches always have a top place in my heart. I had wanted a more elaborate model with more features and chose to try this one. There is everything to praise about this watch with the many features and the beauty of it. However, there are two reasons that prompted me to have to return this. First, it is too thick and heavy for my taste and my wrist felt weighed down. Second, Citizen company failed to provide a specific instruction manual for this particular model but instead kept on pointing my husband and I back to the manual of other similar models - note those other models have distinctly two buttons, whereas Calendrier has one, with a small built-in button (requiring a tool). My husband had to exercise his engineering mind for almost two evenings in order to set all the features for me. If it had been me alone, I would have given up long time ago. He said - do you want to deal with this every time you need to set something? Naturally, the answer is no. So for those who can deal with these two issues, you can give this watch a try.
I love this watch. The case width is a bit big for my 6.25" wrist, but I liked the face design so much, I decided I didn't care. However, the face is a milky whitish mother of pearl, not the iridescent blue pictured on the site. It's still beautiful, but the picture is misleading (which seems to be the case for a couple of watches on the site).

Absolutely beautiful and everything I wanted in a watch. My only issue is there are no instructions for my watch to set all the extra settings. So I’m unhappy I can’t set the them and the online instructions are unclear . Not sure how I’m going to resolve this. Otherwise it would be a 5 star review.

I really like my new watch but it didn't come with instructions on how to set. On-line instructions NOT helpful
Gave to my daughter for Christmas. She's very happy with purchase. She thought the dial would be more blue as the color is a little more subdued than pictured but still quite beautiful and we received a very good price. No complaints!
Beautiful watch!! Its face is such a pretty color. It was fairly easy to set the time/date/moon phase too.
