CitizenMen's Eco-Drive Sport Luxury PCAT Chronograph Watch

READ THIS IF YOU CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO SET YOUR WATCH: This is a model E660 NOT the E650 which is featured in most videos on the internet. The only difference is on the E660 the time zones are on the outer bezel instead of the inner function dial. This may seem like a minor thing, but it completely changes how the watch is set. Trust me and search for the model E660 directions which are on the Citizen website and as of the date of posting this review there were a few videos online as well.NOW ON TO THE REVIEW!Got this watch during Prime Days for about half the list price and am extremely happy with the purchase. Other than a minor, time wasting, frustrating hour or two figuring out how to set the watch properly I've got to say it is well worth the money.At 42mm the case fits nicely on a small to mid size wrist. It is smaller looking then it appears in the pictures and even online reviews which was fine by me. Just note this if you have larger wrists, this watch might look "funny" on your arm.It has a nice heft to it, but not too much. Not sure what the reviewers who were complaining about it usually wear. It is lighter than some of my other 42-44mm chrono style watches. Doesn't feel heavy when on and is nicely balanced.Case is well polished and the two tone coloring gives it a slightly different, dressier edge than other models. I don't think I would wear this with a suit, but if this was your only watch it wouldn't look out of place.Has tons of cool functions like the perpetual calendar and automatic setting to atomic clock radio signal. This is really a "set it and forget it" kind of watch. Eco-drive is nice too as there will never be a battery change needed. Just make sure you leave it in the sunlight or at least under a lamp for a few days after it arrives. Mine had a decent charge already but I want to "top it off" before putting it into regular rotation. If you leave this in your dark watch box for months on end though it is going to die. But, hey, it is a great watch so you ought to be wearing it on a regular basis anyhow.The chrono function is also only OK. The minute dial is so small it is impossible to see which hash it is on accurately. Fine if you are timing something for up to 60 seconds or you don't mind counting the minutes yourself. Seriously though, how many times do you really use that chrono function? Like three times ever, right? I would just think the fine people at Citizen would have addressed this obvious flaw seeing this particular model of watch has been in their catalog for almost a decade and this is the recently updated one.One minor complaint though. I had to take out every single available link in it and even then it barely was enough to fit my wrist. If you have very narrow wrists you may be out of luck.Also, haven't been able to get the watch to sync with the local radio broadcast. I'll try to position it according to the instructions for a few nights and see if it finally communicates. If not, though it appears to be accurate enough.The biggest question though: is this watch worth the list price if Amazon (or elsewhere) does not have it discounted? On that, I would say generally "no" in that I prefer other watch makers in this price range, but that is just my personal preference. If you can find this for around $400 either here or somewhere else though, I would say buy it.

This watch was one that I wavered on to add to my Eco Drive collection, but it has become one of my favorites. A sapphire crystal lens and titanium components alone would make it good. But the eco drive solar power, and atomic time updates makes it near perfect as a great value with all the features.The watch clasp is not adjustable, so make sure you have the skills to remove the band links, or else take to a jeweler. The band pins are pins in sleeves in the band, and if you leave out the sleeve, the pin will not hold. However, use the sleeve, and it has not had any issues in six months. If you like nice watches, you will not be disappointed with this.

The media could not be loaded. Great packing, timely delivery. The watch was charged already. This timepiece is high tech and value for money. Setup was fairly easy if you go by manual. Looks perfect and very comfortable to wear. Just had to be careful with links. Lost 2 of the collars while resizing.This watch is built to last decades. With perpetual calendar, you just setup the watch one time and forget it.I reside in Nigeria, so the radio signals for atomic clock don’t work here. However I used an android tap to simulate radio signals to sync the watch. If you find it difficult to setup manually, you can do it with app that simulates atomic signals.Highly recommended

The Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Sport Luxury PCAT Chronograph Watch is a remarkable blend of elegance and advanced technology. Its Eco-Drive feature ensures I never have to worry about battery changes, while the atomic timekeeping keeps me perfectly synchronized. This watch not only looks great but also performs exceptionally well, making it a fantastic addition to my collection.

The media could not be loaded. This could be a decent watch if you like spending over $450 to buy something brand new and receive something used, or if you like pins just falling out of the links so you can drop your watch and lose it somewhere. I think the person who once owned my watch, took a link out, and before they returned it, put the link back in and used the wrong pins. They weren't cotter pins that fell out. Not sure if thats what the rest of the pins are or if they are supposed to be, but im assuming thats the case. The watch had NO plastic around the strap and NO round plastic on the front crystal or back, like watches usually have, and its satisfying peeling it off. Even my cheap -$100 watches have that. Also the tag was not on the watch bracelet. It was just cut and thrown into the box. Its sad, because i ordered a seiko coutura 3 days ago, and that came used as well, but i just excepted it and kept it. I probably would have just excepted this used watch too, until the cotter pins just fell out, and that was enough for me to say, screw this. The PROS. The watch is beautiful and very light weight, being its titanium, but does feel kind of cheap because of that. It feels like some cheap $50 watches I own. Buttons do feel nice and have a nice click when pushing them in. The CONS. Besides feeling cheap, which is not the watches fault, it does struggle to connect to the radio signal. I did everything the manual said to do for the best results, but still took a few long tries, and when it finally connected, it was a minute off. Im sure that can be fixed. I'll update my review with more info once I send this one back and actually receive my NEW watch and wear it for a few days. It then, it only gets one star cause im super upset. It seems like it would get 5 stars if it was atleast brand new. I can deal with the minor cons it had. So in conclusion, as long as you receive a new watch like you paid for, it should be a great watch to own, but i will warn you, they are not easy to use. You MUST read the manual, which it may or may not come with. Mine didn't come with one, but that might be just because it was used as well. Not sure if they're supposed to come with a manual or not. If not, download online. Its easy to find.
