Received a third replacement watch from Citizen. They were nice enough to calibrate it before shipping and I’m happy to say it is well within spec. Currently averaging +10 seconds a day. Updating my review to 4 stars, still -1 for the poor QC of the first two watches received.
Lovely watch well made. I have not worn it yet. I collect watches it’s hard for me to judge it. Nothing else I can add for now
I really liked this watch EXCEPT for the fact that the dial and hands are the SAME COLOR. The fully-lumed dial is cool but then make the hands black or at least a different color lume. Otherwise this watch is comfortable on the wrist and the coated steel has a pleasant feel to it. Good-looking design, especially the tapered bezel which gives it a sleek profile. I don't want to customize the hands and void the warranty... so Citizen please let me know if you start offering this watch with hands that don't match the dial.
