Wonderful time watch; good looking ware well and worth the price.
Beautiful color and display. Son will love this gift from his late grandparents.
Great looking watch with solid functionality. I enjoy the larger size digital readout and the options for its display.
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
This watch is all you need. Atomic and radio aren't a deal breaker for me. This watch makes up by the digital display providing information like dual time and things of similar nature. The build is good like citizen is known for the bracelet, the bracelet however is decent. My previous citizen had a substanial feel this one is like 60 percent of it. Overall a very well made watch with all you need and some extra. Don't pay retail though.
This is an absolutely gorgeous watch to have on your hand. Its functionality is spectacular and the new movement has fixed the chronograph bugs from the 1st release of this digital version. I love this watch, its a steal at the price its selling at.
I own several Citizen watches, and one of them is nearly 20 years old. Overall, I have been very satisfied with the brand over the years. However, my latest purchase, the Citizen Skyhawk U830, has made me rethink the level of quality that Citizen once offered. At first glance, the watch looks great. But when you examine it closely, you begin to notice that the craftsmanship is not what it used to be. The polishing and finishing are not as refined as on my older Citizen watches. In fact, my 20-year-old Citizen still looks better in some respects. Even the bracelet clasp feels virtually unchanged from what Citizen was using two decades ago, which is surprising. I could probably overlook those issues. What disappointed me most is the lack of a clear, simple, step-by-step setup guide. Configuring the watch and getting it into the correct operating mode is unnecessarily complicated and confusing. Another major disappointment is the backlight. It is barely visible. My older Citizen watches have illumination that is at least three times brighter. I honestly do not understand how this was considered acceptable for a modern watch. While I still appreciate Citizen’s history and reliability, this experience has left me disappointed. Based on this watch, I do not think Citizen will be my first choice when purchasing a watch in the future.
