Citizen Red Arrows Chronograph Leather Strap CA0080-03Eの他のレビュー

This is a great watch for the aviation, military or timepiece enthusiast. It always gets compliments, looks sharp and works well.

The citizen red arrows watch is a very good watch indeed. Here are my pros and cons:

Pros:
- Amazing build quality and materials
- Excellent look and fits on any type of clothing (casual or formal)
-A good feel on the wrist (not too light and not too heavy). Doesn't have too much bulk to it.
-Very accurate and good glow in the dark feature

Cons:
- The strap could be a better quality with a few more holes but of course you can change it out.
- The world time is a little hard to get at first but then once you understand it is straightforward.
-Glow in the dark only works for a 2-3 hours (after that it loses its glow until it is 'recharged' again)


Good service from FCW and the 6 year warranty is a added bonus. The Citizen support is very good too.

Brilliant watch, I was a bit uneasy with the price but it is 100% worth it a real classy watch.

Excellent product and good value for the price I paid

I was pleasantly surprised that I received this via next day shipping. The watch is very nice. Light and classy looking.

I was looking for a watch with world time function and finally found this model. With such price I can get a watch with chronograph with date & world time function, it's worth every dollars. The design of the watch is stylish and the black strap with red line match with the dial perfectly. Being a RAF edition add bonus point to it.
The outer ring with 24 hours indicates the time of different countries. Unlike mechanical watch, it won't rotate by itself but you can adjust it by turning the crown at 10 o'clock. It only takes you few seconds and it is reasonable for this price range.
The only thing to complain is the date display. I don't know if because of the eco-drive function, the dial is very thick that you can hardly see the date if you are not looking at it vertically.
This model is not available in my country so I have to order it from internet. It takes only two and half days for the delivery to Hong Kong after I placed the order. An excellent watch in my collection!

The chance to own a Red Arrows watch was just too tempting, after a lifetime of seeing the real thing in action, from a child watching in Weymouth bay at the carnival, to the prestigious Farnborough air shows. The watch is just a magnificent piece of engineering as well as a reminder of the display team. Very happy.

I ordered this watch last week after making a offer which was immediately accepted. Between ordering and right up to delivery I was kept informed of the delivery process. The watch arrived promptly and was excellently packaged. It is also a superb timepiece, fantastic looking and built to a high level of precision. Overall I am very pleased with the watch and the service & communication by First Class Watches excellent. Highly recommended.

I've been considering getting a good quality watch for a little while now and settled on the Citizen Red Arrows Chronograph.

I'm a big guy and have wide wrists so I was after a bigger watch and had reservations about the diameter, but it fits my wrists really nicely. It took me a little while to get used to the second hand being one of the smaller dials (the larger one is used for the Chronograph - stopwatch basically and doesn't move unless you're using it).

The 24 hour dial seems to be fixed to the same time as the main watch so I'm a bit lost as to it's inclusion.

The ring on the outside of the watch (for time zone differences) is controlled by the crown on the left hand side of the watch and I can see it being useful when I travel.

The buttons and crowns all feel good and solid and the build quality is really nice. It's also really cool that I won't ever need to buy a battery for it as it uses the Eco-Drive technology (powered by light - check out the Citizen website for a brief video.)

The date is a bit recessed from the dial, and can be a touch difficult to read at an angle. A little bit of magnification would've been nice.

The glow-in-the dark bits on the dial glow nice and brightly and are plenty large enough to make it easy enough to read the time in low light.

The leather strap and clasp are really good quality and hold very sturdy. The loops that hold the excess strap are nice and thick as well (I've had other watches where this bit broke straight away.)

The box from Citizen included a mini-CD with instructions for the Skyhawk version, which isn't this one. I think someone mixed them up; but it wasn't FirstClassWatches fault! Which is why I'm not sure if the 24 hour dial can be a different time to the main watch.

The instruction book is pretty general and covers the whole range of Citizen watches. It would've been nice if it was a bit more detailed about this one in particular.

With the price match I managed to get this watch really quickly (I ordered it late Friday night and it arrived special delivery on Tuesday) at a really good price!

I'm definitely bookmarking FirstClassWatches for future use!

This is the 3rd Citizen Eco Drive I have and the 2nd from First Class Watches. Citizen make fantastic watches and this Red Arrows edition is another great one. It was delivered on overnight courier - great service at unbeatable price.

The watch is great.. You won't be disappointed.

But have to mention the great service and communication from "First Class Watches".. absolutely first class.. again you won't be disappointed.

I'm an aviation enthusiast and it was the Red Arrows assocation that attracted me to this watch. A chronograph watch that doesn't need batteries (this watch is solar powered) is a big plus point for me. Also, watches of this type often have much heavier outer bezels than this one. The clean and simple lines of the watch case really make this a timeless, classy piece. The hands and minute chapters are lumibrite and will continue to glow a bright electric blue all through the night. A nice added touch is that the hands on the sub-dials also have lumibrite. The only disadvantage is that the chronograph runs for only one hour and stops once that hour has elapsed. I have another Citizen watch with a 12-hour Chronograph and it would have been nice to have seen that again here. A 24-hour sub-dial is also featured. Overall this is a great looking watch that looks like it will last a lifetime and never look dated!

It's really great, good look, and great technical. I recomended this watch for a people who are like not expensive good watch.

This watch looks classy and modern, could be worn with a suit or t-shirt. I was surprised to find such a watch for this price.
The integrated solar charging feature avoid the need for battery changes and a few days of sun will give you several months of autonomy.
The leather strap is very good quality.
I'm very satisfied overall.
