Excellent Value

I have found this watch to be an excellent value for the money. The size and build quality is a great value. The overall size is just right for a "normal" sized wrist, not too big and not too small. The watch face is very readable, a quick glance and you know what time it is, what more can you ask a watch to do? The band quality is very good, comfortable, nice military like band and watch. The luminous quality of the hands and numbers is a bit marginal, it clearly is not a tritium watch but unless you need the 24/7 tritium feature it is not a problem. The watch looks and feels "right". The movement is almost "silent" which is a very good thing as some watches can be very noisy. The idea of not having to service (automatics) or replace batteries in the foreseeable future is attractive. I'm sure it will not "live" forever but hopefully a 10+ year lifespan will be in order. Based on what I have read, these Citizen solar movements have a good reputation, maybe not perfect but for under a 100 bucks you have a stylish watch from a known maker. I do wish the hands were slightly longer and white for their entire length but these are small points.Read full review
