Beautiful watch! However, I wish I had looked at reviews about the band prior to purchasing. Ultimately, we returned it because of the band/strap - it’s just so unnecessary. You can swap it out but why should I be forced in to paying for an additional one?
The watch looks and feels amazing. Can be worn with a suit or casuals so it is quite versatile. Very gentlemanly old money aesthetic. The dial could've been slightly bigger which would've looked so much better. The dial feels a little small than it should be and everything looks scrunched up.
Love the watch, it is alittle confusing learning how everything works at first and the manual isn't that great at explaining it. I had to google how it was set up but once I figure everything out it is a pretty sick watch.
I will say this. 5 stars for the watch. The strap, a failure. I decided to keep the watch but only because a watchmaker friend changed the strap to a much better quality one. Citizen should definitely be guided by the opinions of people who trust this brand and still buy its products. I am convinced that my next choice will be to buy a watch in a store, not online. Greater comfort and the awareness that I am choosing something I am convinced of seeing it with my own eyes. 4 stars rating only because of this unfortunate strap.
