Just ordered this for my hubby as it was at the price you mentioned from Argos. He loves anything orange so can see him liking this one and he will no doubt swap the strap out for the one of the many I have bought him in the past. First time viewer so thank you very much for the honest review x x

Hey Adrian, great savings you were able to get on this one! I’m digging the pops of orange on it and I like the small sub dial off to the side for the 24 hr indication. Finishing looks good but sorry to hear the strap sucks lol. Mineral crystal is a bummer too but not a deal breaker! Cool review, enjoy the piece! 😎🍻👍

Hey Dave. Yes this one is great value at the moment I'm still torn with Citizen as a brand though I really want to love them but for some reason as good as they are they just leave me kinda empty if that makes any sense 😆 Thanks for watching man. 👍🍻😊

These have caught my eye a few times, love the old school look with modern internals etc. Definitely worth a closer look at that bargain price me thinks 👌😎

Yeah the overall look is pretty cool but the date is way too deep it seems to be a thing with eco-drive watches probably because of the extra solar panels I would prefer it if they had no date at all. 😁

Good evening mate. Nice review of this Citizen Chronograph watch. I also have a love hate with my Citizen watches, I have bought a number of diver and flight variations all with the same hard to read date windows. I have to use a torch to set them! The Eco Drive solar face on my kermit diver does affect the amount of allocated space to the date window however I think it is just as tough to read on my automatic diver also. Bigger print maybe? Straps on Citizens do seem to lack supple strap thickness. This is a well priced example from Citizen.

Thanks mate. Yeah, my ongoing quest to find a Citizen that I want to keep continues, haha. This wasn't "the one," & I really want to love them. You're spot on about their straps as well, although that's an easy fix, of course, I have got my eye on a couple of the latest releases from Citizen so I'm sure that they'll make an appearance on the channel before the year is out. Thanks for watching.

Yeah Citizen is a brand I struggle with. I love the eco-drive technology they are the Kings of that but usually there's just something that I can't connect with in the same way as Seiko or Tissot or Casio etc I'll keep getting them in though after all it's not just about what I like 😁

Not sure what’s taking me so long to get a citizen chrono, I’ve had one on the wish list since I started collecting! The strap, that was hilarious, how do you make a leather band sharp. Interesting. Chronos are/were my favourite watches, I personally wish watches would get rid of those 24 hour subdials that are next to impossible to read and useless IMO anyways. Other than that, love the orange accents on this one. Gunna get one some day! Thanks Adrian

This one is definitely a looker but yeah that strap was just plain nasty haha. There's a lot of good citizen chron's out there I'm sure you'll scratch that itch before too much longer. 😁

I so, so want to like Citizen watches enough to buy one, since they're often great value. Great Japaneze quality and a great horologic history. The Eco-Drive movement is a magnificent feature. Still they rarely does it for me, for some odd bloody reason. This one was a slight too big on my broom-stick wrist anyway. However, I really like the dial and especially the orange details here. I'll keep looking out for some Citizen model that once will suit me lol. Great review as usual, and keep up the good work.

Hi, today I bought this watch but the choronograph doesn't work, it takes a time to work because of light charge or it has a problem? Please let me know about it. Thanks very much

@somewhereintimewatchreviews

Жыл бұрын

I would suggest letting it charge for at least 24 hours, if it has been inside a box for several months it could just need a charge up. & then try it again if it still doesn't work then it will probably need to be returned to wherever you bought it from.

To be fair, that date window is the only thing that kinda let's this one down, so a cyclops crystal if you can find one would be a good upgrade, the strap is a simple swap. Thanks for watching.

I just wanted to know if the one from aliexpress is a genuine one or fake as instead of the Eco Drive, it's written Quartz!!!!

If its from Ali express its 100% a fake. I would always recommend buying Citizen or Seiko or any other well known brand from an official authorised retailer. The golden rule of thumb here is if its a lot cheaper than the actual watch & seems "too good to be true" then it is too good to be true.

Leather conditioner will do the trick
