The tick (every other second) is inaudible under normal circumstances. This combined with the lack of a seconds hand makes for a very zen experience when checking the time. And of course with Eco-Drive it keeps going, and going, and going ...
My one gripe is Citizen's standard gloss black padded leather strap that comes with it. It just doesn't match the spirit of this watch. I immediately put it on a Barton black silicone strap which suits it perfectly in my opinion. This combo is light, comfortable, classy and very modern looking. But it does push the total up around $100.
Compared to other quartz watches, Eco-Drives aren't exactly cheap, but they are well-made and have a great warranty. The official water resistance on this one is just the basic "rain and hand washing" level, but I know that people have swum and even snorkeled with other Citizens that have the same rating. I wouldn't make a habit of it but if I needed to do it I wouldn't be too worried ... at least while the watch is new and the gaskets are fresh.

with button up shirts and polos, but it looked out of place with t-shirts or more casual clothing. From the viewing distance of an observer, the dial of this watch looks classier and more expensive than the competing Seiko SNK795, though the Seiko is still a nice watch, comes with a steel bracelet, and the overall shape and design seem to work with more styles of clothing and occasions. The Seiko is also an automatic and that seems to matter to a lot of people, but for this price point and for daily/work purposes I prefer the more convenient and accurate time keeping of this Cititzen watch. There's no seconds hand which might bother some people, but if you already have a few watches all with seconds hands it makes the look of this one more unique and interesting.
This watch is very simple. It’s not too showy and doesn’t feature all the bells and whistles other Eco-Drive watches have but it still is durable and nice looking. The leather is stiff at first but works out from wear.
The Eco-Drive insures you’ll never have to get a battery as this watch is solar powered. The face is dark and hard to see in low light. No date feature and no seconds hand.
This watch being solar is very convenient in the long run. No going to the store to get a battery replaced.
The leather strap on this watch is definitely on the "tough" side. I really had to work it to get it bend around my wrist easily. However it does look nice once it's softened.
Overall very happy with the quality on the glass, the face, and the housing. Especially considering the price.
