Excellent purchase, reasonable sale price.
There is no better pilot watch! Charged by the sun, no subscriptions, no data plans, works all over the world, looks great, light weight as it’s titanium, and less than 1,000.00…nothing compares!
Very nice looking watches. Totally over the top setting instructions. Just Ridiculous. And if they ever lose power forget it, good luck getting them reset. I have 3 of these and cannot get them reset. I have several other Citizen Watches, 3 Promasters and just bought a fourth. but if they have these little display screens, in my opinion pass on them.
This is my 5th Citizen, and my favorite. It looks great, it's light (titanium), and very legible. I do not like watches where it's hard to read the time. There's a lot of writing and symbols on the watch face, but it's still very easy/quick to read the time. It's big, but for my 7.5 inch wrist it looks just fine. If you have a smaller wrist, though, it could be too big. It's a little thick for my taste, but as a casual watch that works fine. Maybe less so if you wear a suit. Time will tell how long the orange accents will last, though, that's my only worry. It won't look good if they start chipping away with time. The alarms are World Time alarms, meaning you can set an alarm for 18h in Paris and it will sound at 11h in CST. Pretty nifty for international calls. It syncs time very easily from Texas, even without having to set it by a window at night. It's a keeper!
Enjoying my pro master watch it is awesome. I recommend that everyone gets one. It’s a great watch. I haven’t taken it off since I bought it.
This watch is "all boxes ticked...": Radiocontrolled and superprecise, all features for the worldwide-traveller, endlessly dependable, major functions are easy to use. And it comes with all the finest properties: highest craftsmanship, best materials, highest quality. Convincing titanium, precious sapphire crystal - it is made for eternity. Its visual design is so beautiful and comes with such a reasonable pricetag. Downside: The watch has a lot of info to tell, so there is plenty of symbols to show. The smallest symbols are smaller than 1 x1 milimeter...You need good eyes for this watch. LCD lighting could be better. Instructionmanual has more than 1oo pages - not everyones cup of tea. Citizen - Better Starts Now ! How true!
What a beauty this is, on top of my collection now.
I have several Citizen ATs. This is my second Skyhawk. I bought JY8108-53E which is the titanium version. Absolutely love it. Easier to read than my other Skyhawk which is almost 18 years old. Be careful sizing the band, it has tiny sleeves to hold the pins. Don't loose the sleeves.
Back in September I bought the Promaster Navihawk AT8227-56x as a birthday present for myself. When I started to look for information online, YouTube review videos and like, I discovered how much information is out there about citizen watches. Started to fall in love with this watch as there are seemingly tons of videos reviewing all the different variations of the Skyhawks. One review I read said titanium needs to be experienced,and now that I am the proud owner of this watch I couldn’t agree more.The black dial is cool looking and legible but what makes this watch extra supercalifragilistic are the orange accents on the bezel.I saw the same watch without them,maybe from a foreign market,and I didn’t like it quite as much.I once read that these watches are set it and forget it but that’s not the case.When mine arrived I opened the box and saw that it was telling the correct time already.So after trying it on and staring at it for a long time(I mean a long time) I started to check out the functions which I already knew a lot about.So you shouldn’t have to set it but you’re not gonna forget it.I am so glad I decided to purchase this watch even though I had just purchased my Navihawk a few months earlier.So after years of drooling over really cool citizen watches at whatever jewelry store or counter I happened to be at,I am the proud owner of this awesome Skyhawk also.I am one happy happy.
I have had great experience with Citizen Eco-Drive in the past, so this was my go-to first choice. I wanted Titanium and the multi-time-zone capabilities, so the Skyhawk A-T came out on top. I am not disappointed - great quality and features.
