| This is my 3rd Citizens Watch. I also own a battery powered Blue Angels, and a Sky Hawk Eco-Drive. They are 9 years old, and 4 years old respectively. I'm an outdoors-man, and I'm very hard on my watches. These things are built like little tanks. I've beat them to death, and they've never let me down. Every 3 or 4 years I send them into have the crystals replaced, and the battery replaced in the Blue Angels Chronograph. That is all the maintenance that they get. I find it amazing that banging them against abrasive surfaces while hunting and fishing has only damaged the crystals. Other then that these watches look and work like they're new. I'm 65 years old, and I've never found a watch that is as rugged or reliable as Citizens watches are. I'm a customer for life. Good job citizens! |

 "Great functional watch, bad paint" | 2009-06-05 |

| The watch is very functional for those like me who are pilots, the world time and UTC dial are great functions also the E6B dial around the case is very useful for aviation and normal daily calculations like division, multiplication, and conversions. BUT if you plan to wear every day like I have been doing since I got it (3 months ago) the paint on the bottom of the brace will start fading away with normal wear do to constant friction on the bottom with normal every day use, the glass can scratch easily also should be done with saphir but the cost would go up. Other then that great watch, not too heavy and great looks. |

 "Not durable or reliable" | 2009-04-09 |

I am about to send this watch back for the third time in about 2 years. 1st time, watch would not zerorize (digital time constantly off analog time). Second time analog hands wouldn't even match up to zerorize, came back with new chip but lower mode dial not quite centering. Then the mode dial fell off a few months later, so now it's on it's third trip back. Not sure if I would invest in the steel clasp -- pins seem to have bent a bit and the black wears off the casing.
I am a professional pilot and bought this watch to wear everyday, but I don't think it's durable enough to be worn by actual pilots. |

| "The Black Eagle Eco Drive watch" | 2008-12-09 |

I purchased my Black Eagle this summer, from the moment I opened the box I knew that I was going to like this watch. I have been collecting watches all my life, I have every one I ever owned still, regardless of value. This Black Eagle is a very high quality timepiece in every detail, features, accuracy, understated elegance and finish. It's clearly a rugged watch, and now one of my very favorites. I have Rolex, Movado, Wittnauer, Breitling, Sieko, and many others; the Black Eagle is my second favorite. The only watch I like even more is my new black Citizen ECO-DRIVE Skyhawk A-T, the flagship in Eco drive watches. Yes, there's enough capability in that watch to launch the shuttle!
I highly recommend both watches, but the Eagle is a little smaller, and little less expensive.

| This is a handsome watch. I have owned a few Citizen watches over the years, and I have always been impressed with the quality and durability. This watch is gorgeous and a pleasure to own. My experience with the seller was great as well - good price, and good delivery. |
