I bought this watch about 4 years ago and have never had such a problem with. It survived everything from dress-up night on the town low-crawling through the mud, and will never miss a single second. Except for some scratches, still looks great, too! I like the fact that I don 't have to think about the winding or changing the battery ... ever. I really just put another Citizen on my wish list and I dropped the instructions for my wife. I hope I get another one to have immediately.

Big clock, but this case and the band get scratched very easily. I would not recommend you normally wear this watch. I had mine for 3 days, and looked like that for 20 years. It has some scratches on the dial, which I don 't have a clue how it happened. Also on this day the band broke in 2 places, never spent so much on a watch and have this problem. I will contact the residents to see if they will replace it under warranty.

I recently bought this watch as a gift for my husband on our wedding day. I had looked at this watch in a jewelry site and decided to check the price on Amazon for a comparison. I was glad to see that I could buy it in a line of more affordable, but would have been worth the price in store! My husband loves his new watch again!

I bought this watch in Japan, 5 years ago and other than the band to be huge and had to be taken in a few notches. This was the best watch I ever owned, not the lack of lighting and the glow in the dark hour / minute hands only lasts about an hour. I eventually had bezel replaced last year because of some scratches that were caused by my own clumsiness. But that hardly cost 1 / 5 of what I paid for the clock and was well worth extending the life / beauty. I have just bought my second Citizen, the 'Army "green one for $ 90 just to wear at work and would be more than happy in a few years to buy a dress Citizen Watch to complete my work and casual watches. L' Solar energy works great and still a great time.

Brooch pretty well designed clock easy to open and close very satisfied and would recommend this watch

I 've had this watch for a little over a month. It looks very stylish without being garish or "on top. " I 've been particularly impressed by its accuracy. I put the watch once - when it was given to me as a gift - and it is always so accurate that I don 't detect any difference in my radio clock. I like the fact that both the watch displays the day of the week and the date of the month. The needles are easy to see in the dark, but as someone else pointed out, the dial of the watch does not glow in the dark features. I 've had no problem keeping the watch works with the light it receives from ordinary day to day exposure. I had to take the watch to a jeweler to get the strap adjusted - I think the band setting is a job for a professional. My fees because it was $ 10. The bracelet is very comfortable and feels very safe in my wrist.

I had the previous model in black for 4 years. Never, never stopped serving. I 'm hoping that this will compare. I have seen reviews of small, but looking I 'm 200 pounds and says to me all the time so it is nice ..... You have my approval .......

have a gift for friends, they loved it. it is a little small though for larger wrists.

This is a great watch for the price! I 've had it for two years already and it ' s STILL TICKING. It 's very durable. Banged And even though it a few times while wearing it, I haven 't broken it and the crystal has only minor scratches. It 's not very ostentatious, but it is pleasing to look at. And, oh yeah, it keeps accurate time.

I was very impressed with the speedy delivery. The clock was a Christmas gift for my husband. I have to say, they were surprised when they unwrapped the clock, because the clock was accurate and he wanted me because the way it was packaged with a 5 year warranty and instructions on how to return to Amazon must be a problem with he. My husband loves it because it runs on solar energy / power light and the wind never need batteries or buy it. This watch was far less $ then Macy 's Watch and other online stores that now owns two!

This is a great looking watch: classy, simple, yet great for both casual and elegant occasions. Not a big flashy watch that screams for attention, and I agree with a previous post that it may appear small to larger wrists. Some minor shortcomings which are not always within the purchase. First, no-fold safety latch to grip. To having one, but in reality, the clock isn 't going to fall off your wrist. Second, the factors that inform the purchase of Eco-drive is the thought that I 'd (theoretically) not have to do is watch for service or it opened up, do not require batteries. However, Citizen recommends inspection of gaskets every 2-3 years, so somewhat defeats the purpose. I doubt I am really this service, such as warranty is still so limited. After 3 years, I 'll probably my chance to watch. R RI clock give 4 stars (vs. 5) for lack of a grip safety and Citizen 's advertising / web loyalty - I think they should be more upfront about their recommendations for service, instead of giving the impression that the clock will run forever.

I really wanted a cool one .... I hope you stay long .... worth to buy online .. beautiful!

I love the watch so far and it looks great. If you are looking for a handsome watch, this is a business (although the titanium models are dropping in price as well). R things rtwo you may have noticed ... The glow in the dark is just about the hours and minutes (not a huge deal, but if you 're used to having a glow in the dark at 12 o ' clock position reference that can not be a welcome surprise) . The marks on the face of the clock is metal and do not glow in the dark about them (my watch had gone everywhere so this will take some getting used to the low light / night). R RALS, if you need to adjust the size of the watch band to fit your wrist, the pins (do not know if that 's what they ' re called) you have to take are absolutely tiny (thinner than metal, but in all the paper clips smaller) So if you 're used to adjust watch bands yourself, you may want to buy the smallest tool that you can find it or take it to a jeweler anyway. It 'sa few more dollars, but it certainly is potentially scratching the band. R rals, for those of you with arms and thick wrists, this watch will probably look very little about you (sa 'pretty small compared to the time most men's) watches. I have very small wrists so it works well for me (where larger watches look too metal on my wrist). If you 're not sure, try to find a vendor in a local clock to see it in person before buying online.

This watch is great. It works with a suit. And it's not dressy when wearing jeans and a t-shirt. And the fact that he never needs a battery is always a plus. This is a big deal for a nice watch.
