This was my first watch ever since I began my interest in watches. It’s perfect fits great and is a nice appealing everyday for me. Only thing is the crown being hard to twist but that’s it. Great dial
40 mm is a bit big for a woman's wrist, but I appreciate the easy readability of this watch. Lume is clearly visible at night without being distracting.
Tired of battery watches, I decided on an automatic. My choice brands are Seiko (my first automatic watch ever, a gift when I was 12 years old back in 1979!), Citizen and Bulova. Deciding on a watch is a tough thing for me, and after looking for a few hours on all these watch sites, during various days, I settled on this one. I was aware of how nice dark blue looks on a watch face and how it lightly changes in the light, so I knew it would look great in person. Citizen offered sizing for the bracelet and I took them up on the offer...and messed up (so be very careful and measure to the red line of the sizing strip!). I ordered the watch on a Sunday and realized early Monday morning I had messed up. I contacted customer service and the watch had already been sized and shipped! Talk about fast. Two days later, it arrived and it was all I hoped it would be. A quick trip to a nearby jewelry store and minutes later, it fits me wonderfully and looks great. I love the round contour, and the crown being off-center makes it unique in design. I also chose this watch for the Sapphire crystal. My only wish is that the bracelet would have a 'deployant clasp' (flat when shut), but it was not a deal breaker.
Very 👍
