incredible
My main concern judging by posted pictures was the face size. The face is perfect. I have a slimmer wrist with bigger hand and the contrast is awesome. The band is actually quite long, especially compared to an Apple L/XL. I had no issue finding the perfect fit. To clear up some maybe assumptions, the band is not perforated. It’s just dimpled. But, wrist hasn’t sweat. So far so good.The dial is stunning. This watch EASILY hits alot higher than its cost on Amazon. If someone were to ask me, I truly wouldn’t know. And that’s a good thing. The blue is brilliant, the polished silver is perfect, and the weight makes it a daily staple with no fatigue. Only gripe is the date truly is tiny. Like tiny tiny I question why even have it. But it’s hard to knock this watch at all. Final note, it’s even an eco drive which is nuts. Buy it.

Fits Smaller Wrist
The media could not be loaded. I was worried that, being a “men’s watch”, the band may be too large for the wrist. I have about a 6.75” wrist and, although it has to be on the last hole of the band, the band is not too tight or too loose and the watch doesn’t slide around. The band and watch are comfortable. The date was interesting to set because you had to pull the crown out and then push it back in one notch and turn the crown counterclockwise to set the date. The hands glow in the dark which is kind of cool, but the selling points for me were that 1) it is made by Citizen and 2) it is eco-friendly and a beautiful blue color. I didn’t want to pass it up being that it was on sale. I hope I have the watch for many, many years. Now, I just need to find a screen protector…

My First Citizens Watch
Despite reaching middle-aged adulthood, I never owned a Citizens watch before. I've been more of a Casio kid before ditching timepieces (due to smartphones). Now, I resumed wearing a watch and recently discovered the Citizens eco-drive series. As a famous watchmaker, they pump out tons of watches with all sorts of fancy functions, but I'm attracted to the light charging characteristic instead of relying on watch batteries. And this navy blue and steel color scheme matches well with the casual clothes I wear typically. Wearing it has been a joy so far; the rubber band fits snuggly and doesn't let the watch slip up and down my wrist. The dials are fairly thick, so I could read the time at a glance. It is attractive looking and doesn't feel cheap, especially with the Citizens brand name so prominent on the face. This watch will probably be my favorite to wear for years to come.

Love the watch
Beautiful watch. Love the color. Goes great with almost any casual attire, especially blue jeans. Keeps accurate time so far. The only gripe I have is that the date is so small with white numbers on a black background that it is nearly illegible. There's almost no point in having the date on the watch, but otherwise the face is very easy to read. The band is a soft rubber. I think it will be bothersome to me in the summer so I'll look for a cloth replacement band. I also like the eco drive. I'm tired of having batteries die or capacitors fail (yeah, looking at you Seiko.)

Like this more than Apple Watch S6.
After several models of Apple Watch, this is such a great experience. I’ve owned 3 Apple Watches and became tired of the issues, charging, bright health lights, and many annoyances. Edit: actually sleeping so much better w/o the bright lights of Apple Watch waking me up all night.That’s out of the way. First moment putting on this beautiful and simple analog Citizen Watch, I knew it’s good. Clean and simple, solar charging and a gorgeous blue watch face. Fills the bill perfectly. I’m happy going back to basics - an attractive analog watch that does one thing and does it well - time.I don’t need a watch trying to be everything. Don’t need it to pay at the register, weather, email, texts and not turning on when I want and not when I don’t. Apple Watch is annoying and having to charge it every 2 days, no way.This absolutely stunningly simple Citizen watch is a watch. No charging puck, no software. Place it in a light source and charged. 10 years and it’ll still be working. I’ll be history but the watch will show it’s age but still ticking.Imagine, a guy coming from a “smartwatch” back to basics and be much happier with his simple analog watch. Citizen does it for me. Low profile, large watch face, beautiful simple design and it won’t wake me up at night with annoying lights.Love it.
