Great looking watch with solid functionality. I enjoy the larger size digital readout and the options for its display.
Looks great. But, MIP display all but useless for chronograph information. Also, the MIP is a negative display - it changes to positive for setting, but back to negative after setting. The negative display is frustratingly hard to see in any but the brightest light conditions, and the very small display is also difficult to read quickly in the cockpit. Finally, for this price point Citizen should have included radio sync time setting capability. I returned my U830 and haven’t missed it. For slightly more money an Apple Watch Ultra 3 is much more capable and tough. Yes you have to charge it every 2 day - but so what? You have to charge your cell phone too, so…. Disappointed. Really wanted to like this watch as all have all previous versions of the SkyHawk, Navihawk…..etc.
Un reloj que cumple con mis expectativas. Muy muy bonito
This is a great travel watch. Looks good, is tough, and has a lot of useful features. Being able to display two times simultaneously is super useful, as is having different options to show for the calendar and world time features. The alarm tone is a little quiet, but other than that everything seems to work great. Having the detailed incoming light statistics available to see is pretty neat, it lets you understand what situations work well for charging the watch. Physically, the watch is well-constructed and looks really nice. The lume is decent and the backlight makes the screen readable. I'm not sure when I'd ever use the slide rule, but it works surprisingly well! My only wish is that it was a bit smaller. I have a small wrist and it's a large watch, especially by thickness. If Citizen released a 40mm watch with the same analog-digital module, I'd buy it.
I have over 200 Citizen watches in my collection, mostly eco-drives. This brand new Promaster is the one of the favorites in the collection. I have always loved the design of the Citizen watches. The look of any watch is a major driver for me. This watch looks fantastic and the digital display is actually readable without my glasses which is fantastic!! Love it!!!
This is a very nice watch. Looks good with formal or casual. Size is good. Little heavy. Clear analogue and single large digital displays. Multiple digital display options for time, date or both or second time. Push to light the digital display for a couple of seconds to see in the dark. Florescent analogy hands. Eco solar power. UTC time and battery level showing. Stopwatch. Cons, - Little heavy. - No one easy way to see ur second time on digital display. UTC is displayed on a small clock. - No Radio time keeping, as many other Citizen watches. So have to manually adjust.
I’m a big Citizen fan and love the Ecodrive, durability and precision of their watches. The U830 did not disappoint when I received it last week! But I did replace the bracelet immediately with a navy sailcloth band from Barton (quick release). I also ordered two $15 NATO straps so I can keep things fresh and easily dress the watch up or down for any occasion. I don’t see myself putting the stainless steel bracelet back on as I think it makes the watch heavy and look too generic.
The whatch is very comfortable. I love the strap. The menus is easy to use . Great product
love it
