this watch is even better than i thought it would be. i love the way you toggle between functions and make settings and love the analog chronograph feature and the 40hr timing capability. the light for the digital window is a very nice feature as well.
This is an absolute beast of an ana-digi watch. It feels like it could stand up to anything, far more than my casual lifestyle will realistically throw at it. The functionality is top notch and the screen is beautiful - though if there is one negative I'd say the button-activated backlight is pretty weak. I don't care about something that minor though. This is a tank and I feel cool whenever I look at it.
Love the watch. My first citizen. If there was only one drawback would be the band, I have apparently skinny wrists, the band is a little stiff, hoping it breaks in. Already have my sights on my next watch from this company.
Overall I am really enjoying the watch for what it is. I really like the green watch face design and the hour/minute hands along with the minute marks make for the time to be very easy to read quickly. I also enjoy the design of the cordura strap though as others have said it is a bit stiff. I hope that gets better over time and that this is just an indicator that this strap will last much longer than other nylon straps I have experienced in the past. For a standard quartz watch it keeps great time. Rated to +\- 15 sec/month. I have had it for little over a week and it has only gained about 1-2 seconds so I’m happy with it but hope that citizen offers an AT version in the future as my Skyhawk A-T are my absolute favorite watches. I also hope that they can update the chronometer so that the digital display can display the actual running time and that the analog minute and hour displays would function outside of the CHR setting as the time is running. I am happy with the watch and plan on keeping and wearing it but I think I would hold off on buying other versions of the new MIP Ana/digital display watches until they are more refined.
The watch is great, however, be warned, know your size as it's a tight fit. I've contacted customer service a couple of times and it's taken them over a week to respond with the only option of purchasing another band, which I was prepared to do. Little did I know, it would be $144, and it's on backorder of 8 weeks! They didn't even offer a solution of how to replace the band. The back & forth is unnecessary - they can provide all the information and options in one message, but yet again, I need to respond to inquire (with follow-ups) and wait, who knows how long, for a response. I'd give 5 stars, if it wasn't for the lacking customer service. Again, the watch is great, nice features. I can wear it casually, or out to dinner.
Watch features and looks are great but what is the rotating compass used for? Band looks very cool but extremely rigid. Will be looking for a different band.
This is a great watch. The MIP display is next level performance. Eco-Drive is amazing. Only one flaw...the alarms are extremely quiet. You can't hear them unless the watch is up against your ear, making them essentially useless.
Quality watch. Perfectly sized for every day use. Looking forward to using all of the included features.
It would've got five stars, but it's gonna take me a while to break in this strap. The lum is fantastic, 10 out of 10, best of all my watches.
I absolutely love this watch. Many similar options and functions of other watches I own but much easier to use and navigate through. It has the ruggedness I was looking for but still stylish and classy. My only reason for not giving it five stars is because of the band. The band is great looking but should be slightly longer. I do have thicker wrists and am using the last or second to last hole. Normally I’d be on the third hole. The band gets thicker closer to the watch which digs into my wrist when first putting it on. The band is great looking and compliments the watch well so I’d rather not get and aftermarket band but may have too. Other than that it’s a fantastic watch.
