I got this for my birthday back in December and I've loved it since the first time I wore it. I have another Citizen watch in gold but the Gold on this watch is gorgeous. I get compliments all the time. I love all the features on it. Dual Time, 12/24 hr clock, stopwatch, Calendar, and the Alarm. My only problem with this watch is that the lightbulb is very dim and doesn't really do a good job of lighting up the time at night. But other than that, this watch is worth getting. I've only had to reset the second hand once since I got it. It would be perfect if it were also Eco-Drive.
I have to agree with another review on here, though it is a beautiful watch, it did come with the incorrect packaging which might lead someone to think it's an eco-drive watch. In regard to the reply from Citizen on that review, this happened despite me having ordered directly from the site. On a more important note, the light function for the digital clock was either damaged in manufacturing/shipping or just not well designed. The light is set practically behind the screen and only a little light makes its way onto the face making reading the time in the dark nearly impossible. Other than the minor and major issue I have with my purchase, it's a pretty great little watch. I like that this particular one is more of a nod to star wars and less of a blatant tribute. It could easily pass as a normal watch to anyone who doesn't inspect it too closely or is unfamiliar with C-3PO's eyes. To anyone here with thick ol wrists, this might be one to avoid as it will look like you got it from a cereal box, pretty tiny, I'm thanking my ancestors for giving me such dainty wrists.
Instructions for setting watch very complicated. Package/instructions say Eco-drive but watch is not solar powered.
I purchased this watch earlier this year and wear it daily. Has been great so far. I've washed it multiple times so the water resistant rating is accurate. I get many compliments on it since it's very unique. Super cool looking, but not very practical since the buttons are a bit difficult to navigate the options with. The lighting is a bit dim, as others have said. I hope they make a 2nd generation for this watch with some slight improvements. Super retro, my favorite watch of all time.
