An absolute gorgeous watch that speaks elegance and sophistication.
I loved the L Bianca's that came out last year (2025) and was hoping Citizen would release a silver version. So glad I waited! This is exactly what I was hoping for, nice rectangular watch that's not too small and not too bulky with eco drive. I love the blue hands and crown. This watch pairs nicely with dressier or casual attire. I was considering higher end models of something similar but didn't love some of the features (battery or inconsistent solar power) attached to the high price tag. This watch had all I wanted at a reasonable price. I have another eco drive watch from Citizen I got in 2009 and it's still going strong (even fully recharged after years in a dark drawer!). Highly recommend Citizen's eco drive line. Attached pictures to see the watch's size relative to an AirPod and Quarter. Hope it helps anyone out there considering this watch!
I love the way this watch looks, and I am a huge fan of the brand but there are two things that bother me about this watch. First, the face is a little hard to read in some lighting. Second, the clasp is a little rough and it feels uncomfortable on my wrist. I may try to take it to a jeweler and see if it can be smoothed a bit, but I shouldn’t have to.
I’ve been wanting a tank watch after having worn my Tag Heuer “round” faced dial for 20+ years. I seriously considered the Cartier Tank De Must which looks remarkably similar to my new Citizen Bianca L. My new Citizen Bianca L was, however, a fraction of the price. It also perfectly reflects my aesthetic — 100% classic and not un-necessarily expensive or ostentatious. It is a joy to wear and I could not be any happier with my purchase!
