Stunning watch
This watch is my daily driver, it has a very nice fit and finish and even though it has a couple scratches from everyday use at work and at home, it still looks incredible, the movement is also pretty precise, I have not needed to reset the hands yet

STUNNING WATCH!
You can never go wrong with a citizen watch! Very modern style and feel. You don’t need to change batteries because it charges with light. The watch comes in a super nice hard box which is ready to give as a gift. 10 out of 10 gift idea for a special someone.

Overall – very nice
Bought it for my brother’s birthday and he liked it very much. The watch looks far superior in real life, compared to all photos I’ve seen so far. The only thing which leaves to be desired is sapphire glass. I don’t know how Citizen’s mineral glass will hold. But otherwise, beautiful and very precise. Set it on the first day and still second to second correct.

Well rounded watch offering convenience with some trade-offs
Update: 9/7/2023 FYI, I stopped wearing this watch for a while and the battery drained. I charged it by laying it on a window sill for a day. However, I forgot it was there and it sat on the window sill for a month. The sun completely bleached the leather band. I’m not docking a star, still a great watch at a great price, but be careful if you do need to charge the battery that you don’t forget and then have to buy a new band! Oops.[Original review below]I love the overall look and size of this watch. I have larger and smaller watches and this seems to hit the “Engineer in khakis” dress code pretty well. Not too dressy, not too casual. Not too big, not too small. At this price point, there are a few trade offs, but they feel acceptable to me.Pros:- Eco-drive – so convenient, never have to deal with a battery or winding reserve- Value – for the price of this watch, the feel and look are a great value that is comparable to other watches in the same price point without the convenience of Ecodrive.- Leather band – great color and texture- Size and Finish – A mix of “satin” and polished surfaces makes for a nice looking watch- Face – The blue is a unique color (there are some negatives here) and while the face does have a “printed” appearance, it also has the style and function of a chronometer, without “screaming” chronometer. The style is a little subdued. I also like having the date complication.While there are some things I don’t like, overall, I wear this watch all the time. The following are noted so you can go in eyes wide open.Cons:- Chronometer – The start/stop and reset buttons on the chronometer are just a little too easy to push. If I decide to time something (example: commute home on a rainy day, time to walk somewhere) I find that often the timer has reset because I accidentally hit the button with my wrist during a casual movement of the wrist/arm.- Watchface – I like and dislike the blue face. Unlike black Eco-drive faces, the blue face is more transparent and you can clearly tell where the solar cell is in the watch. However, it is not ugly, just obvious and in a weird way I kind of like it now. However, if you are looking for a bold, high quality face with quality materials, this is not it. I have a Citizen Paradigm that does a much better job of combining Eco-drive with high quality face materials if that is your goal (albeit at a significantly higher price point.).- Chronometer – Reading the 1/5th chronometer indices can be a little tough due to the “printed” nature of the watchface. The chronometer is more of a novelty that I use since it is there and not a requirement in my book. With that in mind, 1/5th second is definitely not a requirement.

Excellent Value, Nice Styling and Features
I needed a daily wear watch that offered good functionality as well as look decent without breaking the bank and having to worry if it gets the occasional ding or scratch. This watch fit the bill perfectly.Styling is great. Not too cluttered….but still great features like the chronometer and date complications both of which are a must for me. With a 7-1/4″ wrist the size is perfectly sized.Negatives – I didn’t like the watch band. It really is cheap and detracts from the appearance in my opinion. This wasn’t an issue for me because I wanted a steel bracelet anyway (mostly for water use) and found one that works great for $16 on Amazon. The date window is very small and a hard to read with my aging eyes. The numbers and markings are painted on and look painted. But, it is a $180 watch not an $1800 watch so I’m good with it.In the end, great value, good looking, and very much worth the money. All the functions worked well right out of the box.I like it and am glad I got it.

Good watch
The watch is much better than I thought. It is comfortable to wear as the leather band is not stiff but seems to be made out of better leather. The watch looks big but is the perfect size and it is surprisingly light and not bulky like the Casios I have. I bought it mainly for the chronometer and it is easy to use and resets perfect unlike a bulova I have. Solar charge is another benefit and the back is screw on so should be more water tight than backs that only use small screws to hold the back on. I am not sure what type of rechargeable batteries to use but it should be replaceable. I wish the glass was sapphire but for the cost it is ok. The watch is accurate also. This is the only 1/5 second solar chronograph I could find in this price range. The hands glow ok after exposing to light but the minute markers are not bright. I wish it had an LED light. If you need a solar chronometer then this is a good watch for the price.

Beautiful watch. Date is a little hard to see.
I bought this watch and wore it for five minutes and returned it. Really itâs a great watch, beautiful, I was bummed it didnât work out. One thing I didnât like was how it shows seconds, itâs on one of the complications rather than the normal seconds the. The seconds hand is for the chronograph. Maybe thatâs normal I donât know, this is my first watch. And I will say there was a really nice touch where you push the button to reset the chronograph and it smoothly completes the circle rather than snapping back.Other issue is the date, itâs sort of sunken into the face so it was hard to see unless the light is going in at the correct angle. Those were both dealbreakers for me but other than that it was a beautiful watch, I was bummed and Iâm still looking for the right one.

Beautiful
A little too big for my thin wrists, but it is a beautiful watch. My second citizens ecodrive and love them. I hate having to fix my automatics if I don’t wear them. Only down side is i accidentally hit the buttons a lot and the second hand is stuck at 12. Doesn’t affect the time, but still slightly annoying.
