CitizenMen's Eco-Drive Weekender Watch in Stainless Steel with Blue Polyurethane strap, Blue Dial (Model: AW1158-05L)

Despite reaching middle-aged adulthood, I never owned a Citizens watch before. I've been more of a Casio kid before ditching timepieces (due to smartphones). Now, I resumed wearing a watch and recently discovered the Citizens eco-drive series. As a famous watchmaker, they pump out tons of watches with all sorts of fancy functions, but I'm attracted to the light charging characteristic instead of relying on watch batteries. And this navy blue and steel color scheme matches well with the casual clothes I wear typically. Wearing it has been a joy so far; the rubber band fits snuggly and doesn't let the watch slip up and down my wrist. The dials are fairly thick, so I could read the time at a glance. It is attractive looking and doesn't feel cheap, especially with the Citizens brand name so prominent on the face. This watch will probably be my favorite to wear for years to come.

Beautiful watch. No batteries ever needed. The style was a eye catcher

I’m so in love with this beautiful watch. I love it! It’s as describes.

I like never having to get a new battery and not having to set the time. Citizen Eco-Drive watches typically last 8-10 years. After that the solar function or battery fails. I would never buy a high end solar watch as a collectable. But, at $187.00 this seems like a pretty good deal for a watch I never have to reset. I wish the the face had illuminated hands. The silicone strap is a little hard to put on. The rubber texture is quite sticky so its a little hard to slide the end under the locks. But, if it lasts 6 years I will be happy. One more thing: The strap has (2) locks. So, if you are tiny man with delicate wrists you can tuck in the extra strap end. If you are a full-sized man with sturdy wrists the strap is long enough for most "clydesdales". I have thick wrists and it fits me fine.

Better than expected

Very nice. But too big.

Great watch. Looks good.

My main concern judging by posted pictures was the face size. The face is perfect. I have a slimmer wrist with bigger hand and the contrast is awesome. The band is actually quite long, especially compared to an Apple L/XL. I had no issue finding the perfect fit. To clear up some maybe assumptions, the band is not perforated. It’s just dimpled. But, wrist hasn’t sweat. So far so good.The dial is stunning. This watch EASILY hits alot higher than its cost on Amazon. If someone were to ask me, I truly wouldn’t know. And that’s a good thing. The blue is brilliant, the polished silver is perfect, and the weight makes it a daily staple with no fatigue. Only gripe is the date truly is tiny. Like tiny tiny I question why even have it. But it’s hard to knock this watch at all. Final note, it’s even an eco drive which is nuts. Buy it.
