Fantastic value - gorgeous timepiece Feb 22, 2004
This is a beautiful watch for a great value. Gorgeous bracelet, and deep blue faceplate. Crystal is nice and flat, reducing glare. Feedback from chrono buttons nice and solid.Minor qualms; Topring does not rotate. Chronograph only measures down to seconds - not 1/10 or 1/20 sec. Bottom line - makes a great everyday sport watch, and looks great with any dress-type. Value is unbeatable.

Gorgeous Versatile Watch, Fantastic Value Apr 16, 2007
By Corey Pham I was looking for a watch that I could wear casually anytime and anywhere. I was not into all the complicated and cluttered watches. I also did not want something that looked too young, but at the same time, I didn't want to wear an extremley expensive watch and then be worried about breaking it.
I found everything I wanted in this watch. I recieved it as a gift from my father and have worn it everyday since. The watch is simply gorgeous and well organized. It keeps perfect time and the date is a great reminder too. This watch is fashionable and can be worn running from class to class, spending a day at the office, spending a night out on the town with friends, and even worn to fancy occasions like weddings.
The blue dial is actually a lot darker than in the picture, same can be said about the chain, but it still looks bold and classy. People will think you spent a fortune on this watch by how it looks, but its true value is unbeatable.
Considering you are paying for a Citizen that looks great, can be worn anywhere, and is super affordable, there is no reason to not own this watch. This would also make a great gift to a husband, boyfriend, or anyone who wants a fine looking, multi-purpose watch to add to their collection.

Beautiful and reliable -- except for the bracelet! Jun 12, 2008
By Roberto Lebron

You can read my original review below. Unfortunately, during the past year I have had to replace the pins that attach the watch to the bracelet no fewer than ten times! This is clearly a design flaw. It's too bad, because I love the look of the watch and it works perfectly, but if it won't stay on your wrist, it can't really be called a wristwatch, can it? Stay away from this one.
Original review:
This is an excellent all-around watch. Elegant enough for the boardroom or that special evening out, and practical enough to take snorkeling or skiing. The luminous hands and hour markers are bright in the dark and the numbers on the chronograph dials are easy to read. The satin-finish bracelet strikes just the right balance visually and the whole watch feels substantial and well made. As for the price, let me say this: I took the watch to a local watch store to have the bracelet adjusted, because I'm too lazy to buy the tool and do it myself. The owner asked me where I had bought the watch and how much I had paid for it. When I told him, the poor man grimaced! Plus the watch arrived earlier than I expected! A great buy.

Too big for small wrists Sep 04, 2011
By Bunny I bought this watch as a gift for my fiance. It is stylish, nicely weighted, and elegant. Unfortunatly the face is big enough, and the band inflexible enough, that for small wrists, there is a large gap between the watch and the arm at the junction between the face and band, making it look and feel clunky. Had to return it.

Nice design - cheaply built May 23, 2011
By hoellero I bought this watch as a cheap look alike to my Tag Heuer for day to day abuse. Indeed it looks very nice and would go through as a much more expensive watch on first sight. The blue color of the face is beautiful, the bezel doesn't turn though. It's a feature I never use anyway. The crown is not screw down. You just push it in. I wonder how water resistant it is going to be long term. The pin, that holds the bracelet is way too weak though. One evening, only about 2 weeks after I got the watch, the whole thing just fell on the floor out of nowhere. I had not even stressed the watch. I read about this weakness in several other reviews and can confirm it. So far I didn't put in a claim, so I'll see how that goes. Overall a very nice, more expensive looking watch with some flaws. At less than $120 it seems okay.
