Stiff band, not a deal breaker
4 Stars
Stiff band, not a deal breaker
(*Update below*)Aside from the band, this watch is perfect. Classy, minimalist style, just as I wanted. Such an easy decision given the price and quality of Citizen Eco Drive technology. Can’t wait to wear it with a black tux at my wedding.The Band: based on reviews and photos, I knew what I was getting myself into when I bought it, so I would give it 4.5/5 stars if I could. The band is definitely stiff, as other reviews warned me, so it doesn’t sit quite right on my wrist without some maneuvering. I’m sure it will break in with time but I’m not crazy about the alligator leather and I’m also not a fan of the tapered width on an already thin band. I ordered a Ritche *genuine* leather band when I bought the watch, assuming I’d want to swap out the band, but didn’t realize it was also tapered just like the original Citizen band (see 3rd photo) so I’m returning it and ordering a Ritche *top grain* leather band instead, as it seems to be the same 20mm width throughout.Overall satisfied because of the price and quality of the product, not going to blame the watch for the style of band when I knew what I was buying ahead of time.*Update*I got the Ritche top grain leather band swapped in and now have the perfect watch to go with a black suit/tux! (See last photo) Would definitely recommend!

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2018
Color: Black Strap/Stainless SteelVerified Purchase
This is a very nicely designed and finished watch. The dial is simple (how I like them!) but quite beautiful with its starburst effect and the faceted hour markers. The lume allows me to easily read the time all night with no special 'charging'. I like the case shape and the lugs; it reminds me a bit of military watches.

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice watch for the money
Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2018
Color: Black Strap/Stainless SteelVerified Purchase
A really nice watch for the money. It makes a good work watch that you probably won't mind getting a little scratched and dinged up. It's thin, light and you'll probably forget you're wearing it. It keeps accurate time and with eco-drive you don't ever have to worry about batteries. The fit and finish are very good, the only thing I didn't like is the weird sort of rounded over edge of the case sides. I would have preferred a more defined edge to the case, but with the brushed finish and rounded edge it doesn't catch much light and kinda goes unnoticed on the wrist. The strap was too thickly padded and doesn't really match this watch in my opinion. The design of the dial and the thin profile works well
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classy Watch For A Budget
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2018
Color: Black Strap/Stainless SteelVerified Purchase
I love Citizen watches. For a hard working man like me, these nice watches fit my budget. And they look good as well.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice piece for the price
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2020
Color: Black Strap/Stainless SteelVerified Purchase
Nice little watch for the price. The face has a nice finish to it. The picture on amazon gives a reflection on the glass which makes it look like this watch has a seconds hand, however it does not. Keep it mind if you want that feature.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful quality watch
Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2020
Color: Black Strap/Stainless SteelVerified Purchase
This watch is beautiful, elegantly simple, and works perfectly. The date display is perfectly sized. Unlike some watches I own, I can easily read the date on this one. I particularly wanted the solar charged battery that drives this watch. This is my second Citizen watch with the solar powered battery. I also purchased another one for my son a few years ago that he loves and wears daily. Citizen pioneered this technology and it works superbly. I will be reluctant to ever again purchase a watch that requires a traditional battery that wears out and requires replacement. When I first took this watch out of its box and set the time, it initially ran a little slow and did not keep time accurately. But, after allowing it to be exposed to light for a little while (less than an hour), I re-set it and it has kept perfect time since. I would have preferred a genuine leather wrist band. I will get one if and when I need a replacement band. But the one that comes with the watch is certainly attractive, comfortable and functional and you have to feel it and look very closely to notice it is not genuine leather. I give this watch five stars!
