Almost great

I had been looking at this watch on a discount watch site on several occasions. My wife happened to purchase as a Christmas gift for much more and she didn`t even know I had been looking at this model. It has quite a few features so studying the owners manual is a must. Keeps great time as it gets synced by the atomic clock in Boulder Colorado. My only real complaint is the band. This has to be one of the cheapest synthetic watch bands I had had the displeasure to wear on my wrist. Very stiff and the band holders are always sliding down letting the end of the band flap loosely in the breeze. I looked at getting a new band for this model but that is easier said than done. Where the band attaches to the watch is contoured and fits onto the body of the watch. I have been able to find some Citizen bands that will fit this model but after shelling out too much to begin with I refuse to pay another $100 for a band. It was a gift from the wife and I do like the watch but knowing what I do now about the band I wouldn`t have purchased it for myself.

Best Watch I Own

This is my sixth or seventh Citizen watch, and each time, I am more and more impressed. I love this watch! I would highly recommend it to anyone, especially if you travel.

Latest in a long line

I've owned every Skyhawk is about 1986. It's not a simple watch but it is very comprehensive in terms of time related services included. The LCDs are a bit small but useable. I wouldn't want them much bigger. I'm so happy with it, I've also bought the Red Arrows version.

Can't see dials

It's a great watch my only complaint is you can't see the sub dials, the way it's advertised shows the dials illuminated and that's not the case and for the money I expected to see the whole watch face clearly.
