Citizen Men's Promaster Air Skyhawk Eco-Drive Pilot Watch, Atomic Timkeeping Technology, Chronograph, Power Reserve Indicator, Ana-digi Display, Luminous Hands and Markers, Anti-Reflective Crystal

Super light and very well built.

I wanted a black watch for daily wear that I was casual, but nicer than for yard work, hanging out in the garage and puttering. This fits the bill perfectly, elegant but not suit-and-tie day; even though the Promaster Air Skyhawk would work for that too. I have owned this watch for over a month before reviewing. The dials glow quite brightly in the dark after being outside and I like the blue color. I have a Carty quick release watch strap that I also put on the watch for when I am outside swimming, or the Wife wants to wear the watch. (She likes that she can read the dial without her glasses on.) I wish all watches came with quick change straps. Looks good with both straps. I don’t need all the functions for fuel calculation, but I like atomic timekeeping. Both my Seiko atomic and Citizen atomic watches tick to the exact second, love at first sight. I like the orange accent colors on the watch, at first, I wasn’t sure I would like the subtle splash of color. I bought a band with orange stitching, and it looks great. Sorry I’m not the best photographer with my non-dominant hand. I’m left-handed but took photos with my right. Keep your eye out for amazon sales as the price for this watch can fluctuate by $100.00’s any given week. My only complaint is the strap. You do have one hole to micro-adjust the strap size in the clasp. At the cost point of this watch, it should be a given. I have large wrists but not like some of my friends that are well over 6’. I had to remove one link for proper fit, but they would need a few extra links. I’m sure Citizen would send you a link or two if needed but at this price point, they should include a few in the box. Don’t get me wrong, I like the watch and it’s a keeper. Hope the black finish lasts a long time. I had a Seiko with black Ti coating that looked good for over 10 years of wear. I’ll see how the Citizen watch holds up.

No watches can beat this quality and price

Full disclosure: I wound up returning this watch. I am a military pilot so an accurate watch with Zulu (UTC) time is very appealing. I found the setup to be pretty simple by following the instructions. Most features on this watch are used by simply turning the crown to the desired setting and cycling through the lower button - the upper button doesn't seem to be used for much other than the backlight. The build quality is fantastic. With the bracelet, it's lighter than my (smaller) glycine combat sub on a NATO. It feels rugged, sturdy, but still retains fine details and precise clicks. The main hands are clear and visible with good contrast despite the busy face, which was a pleasant surprise when I saw the watch in person for the first time. The watch itself just looks awesome and was complimented the first time I wore it. what I didn't like: There is a small dedicated 24hr UTC dial at the top of the face. Due to its small size, it is obscured by the main watch hands for like 20 minutes every hour (between :50 and :10 on the minutes) and between the hours of 11 and 1 o clock. Effectively a useless dial to me. You can put UTC time on the small digital display which is nice, however you now lose out on having a day/date display (which I love having because I am dumb and forget what day it is constantly). The E-6b bezel is cool, and despite its small size, the numbers are crisp and legible. I used it for a fuel check a few times for laughs while flying. Obviously unless you take it off, you're going to be reading numbers upside down. One thing I didn't care for is that the inner ring of the computer is under the crystal, which makes an odd contrast. Older versions of the watch had the entire E-6b outside the bezel. Finally, the thing I disliked most and the reason I ultimately returned it: the size. It's massive. I wanted a rugged, accurate watch I could wear 24/7; deploy with, something to become a part of me. I felt like a clown wearing this watch, like a child who snuck into his dad's room to wear his clothes. It was so big I felt like someone strapped a hockey puck to my wrist. If you're a gorilla man, it'll probably work for you. I was blessed with 6 1/2" wrists and it absolutely did not work for me. As much as I liked the features of the watch, I felt so ridiculous wearing it that I rarely did and ultimately sent it back. If you like big watches, or you're a big dude, it's great. I looked at thousands of watches looking for something with this many features and there is nothing else that comes close, even among $5000+ watches. If you've got smaller wrists, I'd pass.

Très jolie montre ! De bonne facture et très bien faite. Je recommande vivement.
