Review

I’ve had this watch for about 3 months. I bought it at a wholesale club for about what Amazon is selling it for now.

The watch has a nice heft. It was a little difficult to set but has run flawlessly since. The watch band tends to pull hairs but removing a link or two cures that problem.

My only suggestion for improvement would be some type of backlighting for the watch face or at least the digital display. The digital display is difficult to see since the LCD is somewhat gray on a black background.

All in all, I’m glad I bought this watch. I have two other Citizens, one other an Eco-Drive, and I’ve been very pleased with their performance.
