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.
really impressed with this watch. looks great, great functionality, glows really bright, easy to set (once you UNDERSTAND the instructions) ... almost thoroughly impressed. was a little disappointed the band is made in China, but the band is easy to adjust myself with basic jeweler tools. one other thing that is not really a drawback on the watch, but my eyes! i didn't take into account that my EYES are older now. the detail on the watch face is too small for my eyes without reading glasses. I should have gone with less gizmos, but I can see the time, and date just fine. oh, and it's beautiful (if a little big on my wrist; i'm 5.8/avg build)
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.
Tis is my second citizens watch. I love the watch, however, I have no idea on how to use the different features. Took me a half hour to figure out how to set the time. I needed a magnifying glass to figure it out. My first watch that I got years ago still runs but has lost its atomic feature. I considered repairing it but it would have cost as much as a new watch. When I called to make sure they were sending me my old watch back the rep slipped and said something about a trade in program but quickly change the subject after I questioned it.
