First, I absolutely love the look of this watch, and I so wanted to love everything about it. I don't really need the 1/1000 chono or the lap timing features but what I do love about it is the alarm, world time, and countdown timers. The one thing I do not like about it is that if the time is anywhere from 4 - 6 (AM or PM) and anywhere between 20-30 past the hour, you cannot use the LCD panel. Try to set the alarm at 4:00 the hands are in your way. Try to set a countdown time at 7:25 the hands are in your way. Citizen, for the next iteration, if you change the mode to any of the modes where you need to see the full panel please, move the hands to 12:00 or to 9:15 like other watches do.
i had been watching this on line for a while and finally bought on a price drop..... lovely watch and band fits so well... it is NOT as bright blue as in the photos much darker but still very attractive... bummer was the battery was dead when it arrived so i had to wait to play with it... this is my 10th Citizen and most are eco drive i Do like the Citizen eco brand over all a nice watch
I was shown one box of packaging but received an other one. I would like to get the watch box which was shown in the images while purchasing the watch.
Love the look and the functions of the watch! The only drawback is the digital numbers are hard to read against the black background. The numbers need to be brighter.
