Reviews
This is a great looking watch. The face is big and open and the color scheme is very pleasant. People are right the band that comes with it kinda sucks. I’m used to buying separate bands on account of big wrists. Plus I prefer nato straps where feasible. I put a Blushark khaki strap on it and it looks and first wonderfully. I just got it so I can’t speak to the ruggedness but I’m not expecting it to be a banger.
I love Citizen, however this is a fail. The strap is ridiculously small. I'm a 5'6" guy and would have to use the LAST hole in the strap. It's basically worthless. The crystal is mineral. For this price point? Not acceptable! Guess I'll go back to Seiko.
Great choice
Beautiful watch. Just as I expected. Reasonable price
Classy and simply
Fits well. It is heavy but, not an issue…. Only means it’s substantial.
Excellent Timepiece!
This is an excellent timepiece. More than worth the cost. It keeps time perfectly, better in fact than some of my more expensive watches. It has become my everyday watch.
Great All The Way Around….Just Like Always
Great service!!
Good watch
My third Citizen Eco-Drive! Fell in love with the Weekenders and wanted another quality Citizen without spending too much money! Wanted a good field watch and actually chose this over a Hamilton!
Good looking watch and never need to rewire or battery
Very good size, weight and nice looking watch. Just a little tied when I wear it I think it's because the brand new watch band.
Nice watch
My third Citizen watch, I wanted something that I could wear everyday, with a good look. Only issue I have is the strap size, my wrist is about 8" in diameter, and it is all I can do to get it in the first hole on the strap. Other than that, great watch. Wish Citizen would provide options for replacement straps ..
Mr
3rd 10 year Citizen eco watch. I have 2 30K plus watchs that do not keep time as well as these do.
Great purchase
Love the combination of ivory face, black case, and green/khaki Cordura band. I live in the desert and this watch fits perfectly in that environment. Some have criticized the band length on Citizen watches, but I find it exactly right.(my wrist is 6.75 inches). The Eco-Drive is very reliable ( I have 2 that are going strong after 5-10 yrs.) The case is a bit high profile due to the recessed face and "bleacher-like" sloped perimeter (which I assume is to accommodate the Eco-drive "ring") but this also gives it a robust field watch look. Good to 10 ATM, my limit for swimming/snorkeling. Mineral crystal may put some off, but it's naturally non-glare and virtually shatterproof so if it does collect a scratch on the surface I'll consider that a character mark. And I don't expect any blemishes to interfere with legibility because the watch is extremely readable. The red minute hand detracts a little from quickly identifying it and might have been better color matched to the hour hand, but that's a very picky observation. The Lume is limited to the primary hands and quarter hour marks, which I think is pleasing in it's simplicity and sufficient for identifying the correct time. I like the triple dials for date/day/24hr. indicators. This watch is a great value at under $300....probably deserves better.
Rocking Garrison!
The watch is simply amazing! The eco battery is sufficient so far but we are still really early in the purchase. The fabric of the band is extremely comfortable and great for multi-purpose wear.
