15 years ago I stood staring at the Citizen Watches at FMJ, I had just got a small bonus at work for landing a sizable contract. My old Timex was looking a bit forlorn so I had it narrowed down to the Skyhawk and Nighthawk. Sadly the only Skyhawk they had was the Blue Angles edition and it was more than my bonus, so I opted for the black face OG Nighthawk. That watch has been on my wrist almost everyday. This last year it has started to look its age for being an EDC. So once again I’ve been eying the watch that got away the Skyhawk. I had it narrowed down but finally landed on the Blackout Version of the AT. And i am in love. Wish I could of swing it 15 years ago. Its an amazing timepiece. Comfortable, thr sapphire crystal and its anti glare makes the watch totally readable in most lighting. Its got enough bells and whistles to keep me busy tinkering with it. After a few days it’s complex setting up has become second nature. I have a hard time getting a signal even to my bigger atomic clocks but manually setting it is just as easy. I still have butterflies, can one say they actually love a watch because I honestly do love it. Well worth the 15 year wait. Both Skyhawk and Nighthawk are amazing. Hoping the AT lasts me another 15 years.
Overall, very happy with the purchase. Even with a large amount of information displayed, it is easy to read the key functions (time and date).
Citizen Response
Great in every way.I always get nice compliments. Best watch I’ve owned.
I bought this watch a few months ago when my other Citizen watch needed servicing. I figured a couple of Citizens could only be a good thing. To my surprise, this watch was superior in all aspects. Functionality, adaptability, and able to take a beating are the features that are most helpful when I travel. The water resistance was added bonus. So, I need not worry about taking it off when swimming.
