As usual, citizen knocks it out of the park with another great watch.
This watch is like a military watch. It exceeds capabilities of all military watches. The digital display and controls are extremely intuitive. I learned this watchs functions inside out in 5 minutes without reading a manual or watching a video. The watch feels perfect on the hand. I was a little skeptical at first because I like big watches. This one looks really good. In addition this was the 100th anniversary Pro Master piece from Citizen, and I bought it on a sale. I cant believe I ended up with such a nice watch. I really feel there should be more of this technology and controls on more watches made by Citizen. Excellent Choice, don't think, just pull the trigger!!!
It's a great watch with just the right number of functions—not overly complicated. I knew I would purchase it when it was announced six months before it was available. The readability in dark or dim light is excellent. The only "complaint" I have is the extremely stiff watchband. I had to purchase a similar-appearing, thin watchband that fits my smaller wrist. It has become the favorite of the many Citizen watches I own.
Great watch. I love the design and all the features

This watch has the features I was looking for in a travel watch. The Eco-drive movement with the ability to set the time easily to different time zones is the perfect for traveling through multiple cities on a trip. Other reviewers said the band was uncomfortable until broken in and I somewhat agree with that comment. It does take 4 or 5 wearings to adapt comfortably to the wrist. That said, it is very sturdy and should hold up well to active lifestyles. The 200 M water resistance is perfect for kayaking and boating.
Fantastic timepiece, the cordura strap is sewn around a fairly stiff piece of leather; so it takes patience while it is broken in. Wearing it too tight can cause carpal pain thanks to it’s unwillingness to budge in the early stages. I wanted something simpler for work and something that is understated enough I don’t care about it getting banged up over time.
I love this watch. Rugged good looks, good balance of analog/digital, strong lume, useful functions (multi-time zones, chrono, timer, alarm), eco-drive power. The original strap is good looking, but as others have pointed out, it is too stiff. The stiffness of the strap puts pressure on the sides of the wrist and elevates the watch above the wrist, preventing it from laying flat against the wrist. I tried breaking in the strap over a couple of months. It got a little better, but I finally decided to swap it with a Marine Nationale strap that matches perfectly and is super comfortable.
