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.
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.

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!

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.

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!
My wife loves the watch and it shipped quickly - very happy
Amazing Watch! Lots of colors in face. Alas current setting month instructions are incorrect. Month button is located above setting button. It is a heavy watch Just FYI
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.

The watch is more beautiful than in the pictures. Perfect for the casual or professional wardrobe
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.
The watch face is awesome. Well worth the purchase. Love Eco-Drive, too. Order a larger wristband than your usual. I had to install a link for comfort.
First, it’s gorgeous. Second, it’s sturdy. Third, it’s practical. Fourth, I can track the moon and as a health care provider…that’s a thing. I love it!
Elegant, pretty watch. Love eco drive watches. I wish it were rated higher for water resistance, but not enough to remove a star.
