I bought this watch a month and half ago. I wore it for 3 DAYS ONLY. Now I do admit that I wore this watch to work, and I work in a factory that has chemicals in it. BUT, for CITIZEN to tell me and the Jeweler who sent the watch back to them, that this is NORMAL is WRONG. Like I said, this is just 3 DAYS of wearing it and you can see in the photo the scuff and the silver showing through on the black band. My Jeweler paid to have the band replaced, but I think this is pretty POOR SERVICE from CITIZEN. I will say that the watch and the workings are very nice, but I am sure that the black on the outside of the watch will come off in no time as well, and my Black Watch will become a Stainless steel watch on it's own.
I am really enjoying my purchase. It fits great. The online videos were helpful in setting the watch.
Guys get this watch. Great everyday no nonsense watch. It’s rugged as it is elegant. Having owned one of my other citizen watches for 10 years I can safely say these watches and their eco drive charging works! I don’t abuse them nor wear them all in rotation, but they charge right up, sync with radio, and the watch is ready to go. I was in the market for a new daily watch that was bigger and more versatile than my previous citizen watches. Enter the Skyhawk AT. I had to order this. The materials used are top tier and make the watch appear higher end than it is. The controls are intuitive and meaningful. The small digital display is neat and legible. The size and weight of the watch seems like a lot. But I assure you-you won’t even know it’s there. I’m biased as I wear larger watches regularly. But I’m 6’2 250 and the watch looks perfect. I specifically noticed that the watch band clasp closers are significant thicker. Not that the other citizen watches are not robust steel. But the Skyhawk has a much nicer band design. The radio syncing and battery life are all great. Even with low signal I was able to get time from the tower. I might try with stronger signal in case results vary. Overall extremely pleased with this purchase. Will definitely be buying another in titanium soon too. Gents treat yourselves. Ladies if your man wears a timepiece consider treating him to a Citizen Skyhawk-AT. Highly recommended this watch!

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.
Great watch with a lot of amazing features. Will continue to update with more use.
Badass, tactical-looking, and practical. I love the radio controlled timekeeping and the fact that the hands ACTUALLY line up and hit the markers basically dead on. I cannot wear a quartz watch where the hands don't line up, Citizen is the only brand other than GS that I've seen pull this off. It's always good to have a grab-and-go activity/travel watch, and this Skyhawk has become it for me. I never even tried the bracelet, (not my style), so can't speak to the quality, but it goes great on a black rubber strap. Citizen has surpassed Seiko, Seiko has major QC issues that they don't seem to care about, but citizen is a higher level of quality DESPITE a lower price point as far as I'm concerned. I'm on team Citizen from now on!
I bought my watch on a cruise, and I haven't taken it off. It's my everyday piece I have other watches hi and low end and citizen is by far my favorite.
I think a watch purchase is extremely subjective, I really like the dial face, excellent night glow. Ease of operation is fine. It’s a bit heftier than other Citizens I own. Atomic timekeeping is just as accurate as my atomic wall clock, cellphone, etc. With a little practice, adjusting secondary time-zone is easy.
To me, watches are equipment: not jewelry or status symbols, art, smart phones, waffle irons, etc. This watch does precisely what a watch is supposed to do: provide me with reliable, precise time information. I use practically every feature it has on regular basis. It also just happens to be as attractive as it is functional. This is my second Skyhawk. My first one is 10 years old, has taken some abuse, and is till precise to the second. I don't repeat mistakes. Here's an example.
This watch has been outstanding and trouble free for over 14 years now. It is amazing that it never needs winding or battery support and changes on its own during daylight saving time etc. It looks fabulous - the finish is still like new even after 14 years! We initially bought one for my son in spring of 2008 then I liked it so much I got the same one in 2011. They've both been great all these years. Great watch!
Best watch i've ever owned. 7th citizen for me and I immediately knew this one was going to be my favorite.
Love Citizen watches have several blue angels and limited editions
Love this watch. Had the Blue Angels version previously and this has all the same features with the case being black instead.
This watch is as cool and sleek as it is supremely functional. Superb design just like all Eco Drive AT watches but the "blackout" look gives it that stealthy, operations feel. I have two other Skyhawk ATs and this one rounds out my collection. I slap this on with my black leather flight jacket or with evening wear for a "nighthawk" look.
10/10 Very dope watch. The set up process could’ve been a bit easier. Overall, great purchase!
Recieved as an early Xmas present. great price, outstanding quality. could not be more happy
Receives atomic signal well in NC. Only wish I had purchased the titanium model watch is heavy and easily scratched should not have this issue if made of titanium.
