It's a great watch with just the right number of functions—not overly complicated. I knew I would purchase it when it was announced six months before it was available. The readability in dark or dim light is excellent. The only "complaint" I have is the extremely stiff watchband. I had to purchase a similar-appearing, thin watchband that fits my smaller wrist. It has become the favorite of the many Citizen watches I own.
Great watch. I love the design and all the features
Fantastic timepiece, the cordura strap is sewn around a fairly stiff piece of leather; so it takes patience while it is broken in. Wearing it too tight can cause carpal pain thanks to it’s unwillingness to budge in the early stages. I wanted something simpler for work and something that is understated enough I don’t care about it getting banged up over time.
I love this watch. Rugged good looks, good balance of analog/digital, strong lume, useful functions (multi-time zones, chrono, timer, alarm), eco-drive power. The original strap is good looking, but as others have pointed out, it is too stiff. The stiffness of the strap puts pressure on the sides of the wrist and elevates the watch above the wrist, preventing it from laying flat against the wrist. I tried breaking in the strap over a couple of months. It got a little better, but I finally decided to swap it with a Marine Nationale strap that matches perfectly and is super comfortable.
my husband loved the watch.
What a great watch! Not too heavy, not too big, great color, feels great on the wrist and looks awesome! Only thing is the strap needs some breaking in but once that breaks in, the fit is just right!

Beautiful and strong watch, excellent balance between analog and digital. Feels great on the wrist and the quality is apparent. My absolute favorite watch.

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.
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.
