This is I believe the 5th Citizen watch that I’ve owned. All but 1 are still working perfectly. I am extremely happy with the watch. It looks outstanding and like all my others, function perfectly. The instructions are really very adequate. Actually simpler than some tutorials online.
Outstanding timepiece. I like it so much I have two; the metal braclet and a blue leather one with contrast yellow stitching. A great watch that is dependable, accurate and attractive!
A nice four watch Citizen collection could be a Promaster Land, Sea, Air and maybe an automatic like the Tsuyosa or Zenshin. For the Air, I was drawn to the idea of a Blue Angels watch. I give this one a 95 out of 100. Any watch with this many complications will have some trade offs in legibility. The high points are the radio control time accuracy with perpetual calendar (set and forget), highly legible analog time, legible slide rule, eco-drive power meter, UTC analog subdial and second city digital option. One trade off is that you can either display the second city, or the date (the date is for UTC). The leather band is very good, and very dark blue. This watch wears well with black, tan, blue, brown, white or grey, so it is highly versatile.
This watch has a lot to recommend. 1. It looks great 2. it's 100% accurate 3. Battery never needs to be replaced 4. Powerful features, including Universal Time, 12- or 24-hour time 5. Calendar with day and date 6. 42 world regions 7. LED lights 8. Looks great 9. Great strap in leather 10. For the price, great value
My second Blue Angle watch, first one bought by my daughter and wife 27years ago. It finally became OBE. My new one is gorgeous but not as easy to use, I’m sure I’ll learn.
The watch is and AT radio controlled timekeeping piece. Although the user manual says it might not synchronize with the Denver radio transmitter because my location at Puerto Rico (-4 time zone), it actually does it with good signal (H indication) after night reception. Other than that, l love the pilot feature of aeronautical pilot rotating slide rule bezel and Blue Angels insingnia!
It's boxed up and ready to send back for repair already. Approximately two weeks of intermittent wear and the stem no longer changes the functions. I expected better from Citizen.
I did buy this lovely watch about a month ago. But it did not come as advertised, the color of the leather bracelet was black. And I had the "Blue Angels" in mind. A bit blue at all I was thinking about. So, I did pay 599 Euros for a watch advertised as the wonder woman, and what did I get? The bracelet delivered was black, the cool box was a fantasy, no booklet how to use that dumb thing. So, clearly one STAR less if you do not mind?
Beautiful watch. It has so many features that it is hard to keep up with. I would like to see the backlight be a little better. Solid watch though.
Just purchased. Have four AT watches at this time, but this is the most distinctive of them all. Be sure to read the instructions carefully, as the settings are not instinctive. No manual included with the watch.
