Just got this watch last week. The feel and presentation on the wrist is amazing. Very universal. Can be worn with dress up to dress down. This is an everyday watch.
Can a battery over charge I've had it all most a year a problem how much will cost to repair it seems to be getting a little slow I never owned a Citizen only Sekco watches before and had a similar problem I could not read the number on the back but we will see if the eco drive is a superior product.
I like the look and feel of the watch. Very accurate timekeeping.
I'm a retired US Navy Parachute Rigger and spent 22 years maintaining the ejection seat mounted parachutes/survival kits and every piece of flight equipment a US Navy and US Marine Corps Aviator will wear, including the HGU-33 flight helmet used by the Blue Angels Flight Demonstration Team (the visor should be gold instead of chrome but I understand ;-). This watch has been on my watch "Bucket List" for 2 year, and now one is mine. It's beautiful and I'm proud to wear it, but maybe not for the fact that it's a Citizen... The folks at the jewelry store didn't know how to set it and there was no instruction manual in the enormous beautiful box. They did adjust the bracelet and when I saw the small metal working hammer come out to drive the pins back in, I cringed but it was too late and they removed a link from both sides and damaged both sides. I took hours of searching the internet to find very little on setting the watch but finally found a video on citizenwatch.com that mentioned manual adjusting if a radio link failed allowing me to set "Daylight Saving". Then I registered the watch only to realize that the "VERY COOL" metal limited edition ID card didn't match my watch. The card indicated 2951/9999 and the case back indicated 1690/9999. Then I wondered if they 9999 were manufactured over multiple years, because I couldn't discern a date of manufacture. Can Citizen tell me more? I was hoping for a card that matched the watch, but that may not be possible. And lastly, the laser etching (I'm guessing laser) is blurred on some of the numbers and letters, specifically the movement identifier isn't as legible as one would hope for a new expensive Citizen watch. I think this one is number "Two" from top-of-the-line Promaster, just under the Titanium version which I'm sure is actually available in the Blue Angel configuration. So, maybe I'll be able to find a new bracelet to install someday after putting a few bucks back into the Parachute Rigger's indulgent cookie jar. I would have gladly provided pictures but the option to do so was not working.
Sweet watch. My 3rd Blue Angel piece! Love the backlight feature and luminosity on this watch!
I just bought the this beautiful watch. I had a titanium eco-drive several years ago. Could not beat a deal on the Blue Angels collectors.
This is my second blue angel watch? I gave My the first one to my grandson. He just got his pilots license at Central Washington University. Can I buy a owners manual for this watch
