(+) Arguably the best looking mens watch ever. Large clear display, Solar powered,Enough functions to keep you informed/amused forever. (-) Not G-Shock nor Atomic clock (via radio signal) contolled. You certainly need instuctions here as well.
Advantages: fast delivery, first class customer service Disadvantages: none to be honest
i've recently ordered the CitizenEco-DriveWatch for my father online and found both the product and the company i ordered from to be top class. The delivery was next day, and it was free too (which makes a nice change) and the old man really liked his present too, so all in all, a good experience.
I have to recommend the company i purchased from, as i found them very helpful when i called them to find out more information about delivery, and returns policy, so thank you Mores Jewellers
The watch it's self i've been told is very comfortable and feels natural when wearing, it's heavy enough due to the quality, but light enough to not get in the way.
The gold remains to be as shiny today as it was when i brought the item (over 3 months ago) and the face isn't scratched, even though the watch is worn every day and not just ...
Advantages: Atomic time-keeping, solar powered, 200m WR Disadvantages: Not the lightest of watches
Citizen Skyhawk A-T Eco-drivewatch, model no JY0000-53E.
At the time of writing, this watch is the top of the Skyhawk model range, Citizen's take on aviation themed watches. In addition to the usual Skyhawk features, the A-T model synchronises with the atomic clock signal. As well as being able to receive the European signal, it can also be trained to the USA and Japan time signals by setting the relevant time zone - an advantage over some of the cheaper atomic watches offered by other manufacturers.
The watch is a chunky design with a stainless steel bracelet and base contrasting the black face and rotating slide rule bezel. The hands are metallic with luminous inserts, and all the hour markers also contain the luminous inserts. The watch weighs in at 178g (on our digital kitchen scales) and the glass is 34mm diameter ...
Advantages: Technical features, no batteries, accurate, good looking, Japanese Disadvantages: None at present
in jewellers is an understatement, but I was pleased when I heard that Citizen has introduced a solar powered watch range. One of my work colleagues already had one & was very pleased with it.
It sounded too good to be true, as long as the watch is kept in natural or indoor light it will work, put the watch in a closed cupboard or drawer & after a few days it will stop, only to restart again when it is taken back into light.
The movement is made in Japan, a country that only sells goods to the general public that are researched & developed properly. The reliability of Japanese products such as cameras, watches & cars is legendary so I had no concerns about this new technology. The bracelet is made in China, no doubt to keep costs down. A solar powered watch doesn't tick & unlike kinetic or self winding watches doesn't make a noise when ...
