DJK30: Ordered this watch to wear to non-formal events, dates, running daily errands, etc., and it delivers. The watch works fine, fits well and looks great. I have no issues with the band, seeing the time or date. If you're looking for a watch to swim in, run a marathon, or do crossfit in, this isn't the watch for that. But, if you're looking for a nice looking watch for basic daily activities, this will suit your needs.

Ken C: Great looking watch. Had it for the past week. After a week it was only 1 second faster. I am not so crazy about the band but I am getting a different one. And yes the date window is small but that doesn't really matter to me. Very satisfied. Love the eco-drive.

Amazon Customer: I suspect this one may have been a display watch as the plastic adjustment insert was missing, but really great price.

GeorgeNYGeorgeNY: Seems the quality is good, great looks, easy to read... except the date. I don't understand why they make the date sooooo small; it's not really usable 99% of the time (unless under direct light with eyeball stuck to glass).

Hands are luminous but not the hours, so you have to estimate the time. I wish they had a backlit option though, because I don't look at my watch almost immediately when I go into a dark room or at night outside. By the time I need to see the ..time, there's no luminescence as it lasts only a few minutes.

The timer goes up to 1 hr, not enough for a regular activity (class) that goes up to 1.5 hrs. It would help if the bezel rotated, but it doesn't.

The band is leather but it may be too short for some men. I have an average wrist size and as you can see in the picture, it's tight. It makes it slightly harder to put this on because the length is shorter than most original bands that came with other watches I owned.

It's a nice watch and I'm keeping it. I like Citizen watches. Yet, for $245 on sale this is not an inexpensive watch. Usually it's closer to $300. Obviously value means different things to different...

Sean L.: Likes: overall I love this watch. Great look and classy. I definitely recommend it and would purchase again.
Size is great. The appearance is also super nice. The black face and band match well. The motion of the chrono second hand is cool, ticks off in fractions of a second very smoothly. Overall the appearance and value for the money is outstanding.

Dislikes:
The date indicator for the black face watch has a black background with white numbers, it can be difficult to see the date. Would have preferred white with black numbers. The hands will illuminate at night but none of the positions have any illumination making it difficult to determine the time in the dark. Would be nice to have 12, 3, 6, and 9 locations with the illumination. Time keeping is good but the crown does not screw in or have guards so it can become undone easily causing the watch to stop or to change the time. This happens when reaching into a pocket. The crown can catch on the pocket and be pulled out to time setting mode. May need some checks that the crown is locked down and adjustments every so often to keep it at the right time.

Le Tigre: I am a fan of Citizen and their Japanese/Swiss history.
It is a quality timepiece that is priced easily1/3 below its worth.
I would have liked to see a Sapphire crystal which is not unreasonable at this price point with todays synthetic technology. It has a mineral crystal which may shatter at very low or high temperatures, like up here in Canada where we get to -30C.
Overall I am happy with the purchase and if you are looking for a stylish, quality engineered watch at a reasonable price then you should like this watch also. Compare to a Timex Tx line in design

David: Es un reloj muy bonito y de excelente calidad. La correa es un poco rígida y generalmente eso hace que se rompan rápido pero por ahorita está muy bien. Es un reloj ligero pero se siente muy aguantador. La atención del proveedor excelente.

Gustavo : Es bonito, llegó en tiempo y forma. Por el precio me parece bien. No me gusta un poco, porque no encaja nuy birn en la muñeca en cuanto a los bordes, espero que con el tiempo se ajuste.... más delante comunicaré los detalles.
