Citizen Analog Men's Watch (Dial Colored Strap)

If you are not one of those flashy types and really like a quality thing, this is the thing to go.

Great everyday watch - simple, durable, and always ready thanks to solar charging. Perfect for daily wear or outdoor use, perfect size.

Just love the simpleness in the design yet gives the watch a handsome look. It's one year and running great. No issues.

Good watch. Looks cooler in real life than in pictures. Light weight. I personally found the strap ok. Other reviews seem to complain about it. My only gripe us this: There is no warranty

I bought this watch in 2008 outside of Amazon and have been using it since then. No issues with the watch at all and the looks are simple and very casual - best for a Friday dressing. My strap had worn-out and I could not get a replacement till today. Got a leather strap as replacement but the millitary strap is much better in terms of looks.

I inherited a delightful old ecodrive pilot watch that my father had used for 15 odd years before he passed away. But when some water got in it during a thunderstorm, I realized I needed one with better water resistance. After searching, I zeroed in on this model, with it's old school styling and 100m water resistance, as a replacement. And when I got the watch, I wasn't disappointed at all - it was small, light-weight and unobtrusive, but had a very legible dial that could tell me the time, date and day at a glance, without having to fiddle with any buttons. What was disappointing was the terrible condition of not just the outer sleeve but also of the box itself, a missing warranty (although the product page does have some sort of cryptic explanation that I assume absolves the seller of liability for it's absence, so I can't complain too much), and no user manual of any kind. And while I know that many companies don't print extensive user manuals any more, there is usually at least a little piece of paper with a the URL of the online user manual. This box, however, had nothing. As expected with something coming from a presumably dark warehouse, the solar battery wasn't charged, as indicated by the seconds hand jumping in 2.5 second increments (see the video), so I kept it out by a window to recharge for 40 hours, as explained on the Citizen website. Given the long summer days we have at the moment, this wasn't a problem at all, but when all the recharging didn't make a difference to the second hand, and I knew I didn't have a warranty under which to get the battery replaced, I had no choice but to return it while I still could. And that's what I sadly had to do.

Its a perfect daily beater, great legibility, solar powered, and it goes well with many different straps!!

Amazing watch for price. Does everything I ask of it.

I don't usually think too much about my purchases - if I like something I need and can afford it, I get it. I don't like how smart watches quantify every aspect of one's existence, and I only started wearing a watch after I inherited an old Eco-Drive from my father a few years ago. Unfortunately, it became erratic after some seawater damage, even though I got the water damage repaired by an authorized Citizen service center. I found I really missed the watch while it was with them, so I needed a new one. Looking for a replacement took me deep down the online horology rabbit-hole and I ended up buying a bargain vintage mechanical winding watch for special occasions, and this as my zero-maintenance everyday one. This watch somehow feels a lot better on the wrist than in it looks in pictures. I was very worried about how awkwardly the crown-guards seem to stick out of the case, but it looks perfectly natural when it's worn. The strap it comes with is, as many other reviewers have said, absolute garbage. I ordered a replacement at the same time as the watch because I knew I didn't want it. But even if you like the military aesthetic of the green canvas, it's terribly uncomfortable with the widely spaced holes making it virtually impossible to adjust to the right size. I tried my best to like it because I felt bad about how much I despised it, but I just couldn't. What I love about the watch is how easy it is to read. Even the day and date window needs no more than a glance from my 40 year old screen-damaged eyes. The watch is very light, and with a comfortable strap, I can barely feel it on me. It's arguably a little thick for a quartz watch of it's diameter, but the light weight sort of makes up for it. Speaking of the case diameter, I wouldn't recommend it for wrists larger than my 165 millimeters (6.5 inches) unless you're actively seeking the vintage pilot watch look. But if you are doing that, then you probably want a watch that's more authentic to the genre. I hope this helps your decision.

Received the item original as advertised though the box/packaging looks old and a little beat up

Tamaño adecuado, no frágil, bueno para el diario
