    Wonderful watch!       Product Reviews
    by: drmichaelwood       on: 27-Dec 2005

    This, simply put, is a wonderful watch.

    I say that because this watch is useful both at work and at home. At work, I'm a flight surgeon. I spend both in the office working as a physician and in military aircraft as a rated aviator, and find this watch works well in both environments. In the office, it is lightweight (thanks to the Titanium), professional appearing, and quite functional thanks to easy to read hour/minute/second hands and being water resistant (no worries about ruining the watch because of hand washing). On board aircraft, I have glow-in-the-dark hands and a steady reference to Zulu (UTC) time, as well as having a wiz wheel to show that I have some idea about what is going on (although with modern cockpits, it's somewhat redundant -- and, worth noting, hard to read the dial in low light conditions). At home, the UTC time is helpful for pursuing my hobby of astronomy, as most references to astronomical events are listed in UTC time.

    The watch is somewhat initially confusing, but once you review the instruction manual or included CD, it is one of the easiest to operate watches I've owned.

    One other item worth noting is that it is somewhat more grey in color than the photo on Amazon.com appears.

    Overall, a great value!
    Great watch       Product Reviews

    I am a watch nut, and I owned many many watches over the year. This is the best watch I have ever owned. I have the titanium model which is especially nice because it is so light.
    This is the perfect every day watch.
    Best watch in my collection       Product Reviews

    First off, I have the stainless steel, not titanium. My reasons is the stainless steel, though heavier, hides the scratches to the band a lot better. As with most Citizen watches, this watch is of high quality construction and keeps time accrurately. I work in construction and fly recreationally so this watch not only comes in handy, but it takes a beating as well. I have heard some complain the crystal scratches, but to date, I have no scratches (1 year of ownership and constant wear). The timezone features comes in handy expecially for business travelers who don't like resetting their watch all the time. You can hit two buttons and switch to the new time zone while still showing your hometown in the digital display. Shows date & time, has a chronograph, three alarms and a timer. There are two great additions available for pilots - the right small dial shows UTC (aka universal time), this is very handy when you don't have time to figure out how many hours to deduct (or add) to get to UTC when traveling East/West. The outer dial also allows you to do your time & fuel calculations though I must say, it is hard to read, and what business do you have flying without your proper tools.
    This watch goes well with business attire as well as jeans and a t-shirt. Clasp stays locked and I don't have too many arm hairs pulled like with other models. Have successfully tested in water, but not to any depth. One complaint, you have to manually tell the watch when daylight savings time is. Harder to remember for those of us living without this cooky change of time (Arizona, Hawaii and Indy).
