I own this watch with black dial and yellow seconds hand and I absolutely love it. Perfect daily driver for me.

Thanks for the great review. I love the legible dial. It makes me miss my Citizen Satellite CC3060-10E with the similar dial but larger 44mm case. I may have to rebuy that in 2022.

Thanks for this review. I am going to buy one too. Exactly this one

I’ve owned many watches, and this is easily the most legible watchface I have seen. I have had the green one for 13 years and it gets the most wrist time (about 98%).

Recently ordered all black variant. Can’t wait for it! Ty for reviewing this watch. Not many good reviews of it!

Nice blue face. I have the green. Love it.

I have the green one, such a great watch. Light, looks sharp, keeps perfect time. Set it and forget it.

I love everything about this model but the fact that you can only receive the Japanese radio signal is a real bummer.

Thx for the review. I wasn't aware Citizen offered this in blue. I've been enjoying the green version for a few years.

Great review but I feel that you overstate the issue with the radio reception when using the app is super easy and far more efficient than consistently setting the time for an automatic.

I am amazed by the finish Being titanium its light Never knew citizen is such an underdog

Nothing mentioned about the crown (screw down?) or whet is the function of the button below the crown?

I recently acquired this watch but the grey dial/black bezel/yellow seconds hand version. Amazing watch, great quality and soooo comfortable on the wrist. I love the looks, real tool watch. I do like this blue dial/red seconds hand version slightly more if im honest but im happy with my purchase. One difference i have noticed is my version has the case back with the promaster embossing which i do like better. Anyways great review

I have the green dial, it is a great watch. Maybe the numbers are a little oversized but I guess it adds to its personality. I can't be bothered with radio control, it is a downfall of this watch that it just doesn't work here. I just treat it like a regular quartz that sucks to fiddle with.

I've had a pretty good look at Citizen's quartz line, and this has emerged as one of the more interesting options. I'm also eyeing the "Tsuki-yomi A-T" BY1010-57H. By the way, I've got several watches that can receive the signal from Fort Collins, but I decided not to bother with that since I have to leave watches by the window overnight to get reception. Instead, I use an app on my phone to keep track of how my watches are running, and if a watch tends to run a bit fast, I'll set it behind, and if it runs slow, I'll set it ahead. The _amount_ that I'll set it behind (or ahead) depends on how _quickly_ it gains (or loses) time. I have a Hamilton PSR that gains about 0.9 seconds per month, so it can be set 5 seconds behind & it'll be _very_ close to the correct time for ~1 year. If a watch gains about half a second per day (~15 seconds/month), I might set it a whole minute behind to have it within 1 minute of actual time for ~8 months. I still really appreciate solar quartz (and quartz in general) but I find manual setting is most practical and convenient.

I have the Promaster Tough watches and love them. I can't help but think this would be a nice addition to the collection. I didn't realize that the bracelet links were two-piece until you pointed it out. Thanks. Also, it looks like the sapphire crystal is domed?

Is this the same watch as the PMD56-2952, but just with a blue dial?

Отличный дизайн.Подойдут для любого потребителя Часы---песня!

My next watch!

I just ordered this. I have an 8” wrist and this will be my smallest watch yet. Hopefully it fits lol. Did you have to take links out for it to fit your wrist?

Wow. Lovely watch. I’ve had the black dialed version in my cart numerous times and never have done the deal. I’ve always wondered what the black dial would look like without the black bezel. It was my only reservation.

I have 4 citizen watches. Very reliable, great looking

Perfex Multi 3000 improved signal reception, enhanced electric and mechanical shock resistance, and automatic hand position correction.

Did you know Citizen also owns a Swiss movement manufacturer? La Joux Perret.

The link below to the blue-dial version is not really the same watch, yours has a different (blue) rehaut. The link is showing a black rehaut. Is it the correct link?

That appears to be a press-in case back and not a screw-in as mentioned. Can anyone confirm please and thank you!

4:36 how would a traditional caseback wear better? In my mind it makes sense that a mono block case will wear better 🤔

Another watch that would be great to review and compare to this are the new Seiko Astron's with GPS. They are a similar size with titanium. However paying more for the GPS technology.

Are the indices pure white or more of a greenish or yellowish tint?

hi awesome watch but no one shows how to adjust the year date without using the radio towers. its a bit complicated. at first. but i lost my manual.

How to change the battery and what kind of battery that can used?

is there a red dial version or one with 24 hour markers that has a sapphire crystal?

The only negative with this watch is the red seconds hand. Since the dial is dark, the second hand should be bright. A good orange would have been a better color.

Is there a Power Reserve Indicator on this watch?

Wished the newer version had the seconds hand also lumed

I prefer automatic too, but just ordered in black. I just think it looks awesome and love the features. Does the app set the day/date too or just the time? THANK YOU!

How hard is it to change the time to a new time zone if you travel?

Great looking watch! Pity it only receives the Japanese radio signal and you had to download the app on your phone to emulate it...By the way, is sakurawatches legit? I know it says '100% new, genuine and original' but prices are too good to be true. Did your timepiece came with the original citizen package/box and citizen 5 years warranty?

I like only the black dial version.

36 and bluetooth would be PERFECT

Could you compare it to the BN0118-04E, I have one and wanted to check how they stack against each other. Also what is the difference between the one you showed and the older version, PMD56. Thanks!

Does it have the power save mode ? Does the seconds hand stop after a couple of minutes in the dark ?

Really sweet unit! I'd love to get this in hand and compare it to my Oceanus s100, which is nearly impossible to beat.

Very nice. I'd get it if it just got rid of the radio setting and made it manual. A polar dial would make it even more incredible.

Not a fan of the numerals. But I wish my Promaster Tough had that knurled crown, clasp, day-date, and a multi-band radio.

If this didn't have the radio controller I would buy it

There's no doubt that mechanical watches (such as the Seiko Alpinist) have nostalgic appeal. However, there is NO appeal in having to pay a tremendous amount of money servicing a mechanical watch after years of use. In sharp contrast, this Citizen should not need ANY servicing EVER. Given all its utterly fantastic features, it's THE watch to buy, provided you have no problem wearing it in formal situations.

How often do you have to adjust the time?

Price please

What is the deal with Sakura watches? Is this another gray market seller? Or will I get the watch with all the correct packaging and paperwork?

Apparently the "AT" versions are made in Thailand, while the "PM" ones are Japanese...can anyone confirm?

Might be more of a "regret it when you have to set it" piece.

H800 (or "only" H100)? I believe H100 would require smartphone app for it to sync when not living in Japan. ? In other words : What are we Europeans to ask/look out for/to be informed about (ideally by Citizen) right away up front in order to know if the carefree perpetual calender will actually work outside Japan? It can be ordered directly from Japan with English writings of the day, but that is not telling, does it?

Venden este reloj en Europa? No le he visto

No set and forget except in Japan. Must use emulator app to update periodically.

That's too bad the lume only lasts a little while, costing $400+, not a small amount I think.

You DON'T need to leave it in a window, just wear it, it will be constantly charging!

All my watches are titanium and quartz (which I prefer). Casio Oceanus S100 black dial & T150 ice blue dial. I have been wanting green, red and blue dials watches -- preferably in titanium. The radio control in the US is kind of a deal break. I'd rather just have the watch without that feature and thinner. I also think the numbers are too large. Considering the new BM7570‑80L instead.

Ojalá algún día podamos poder elegir entre el amplio catálogo de otras zonas, como el que muestro, solo disponible para el mercado japonés y que la distribución oficial en España no tiene. Una pena, pero yo lo voy a tener. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_SNza0SqC3o.html

"It's going to be a nightmare".....quoted at the 9:24 mark in this vid....truer words could not be spoken. The US version of the on line manual is completely worthless. Total waste of $.

15 secs/month is what the manual says. You couldn't be bothered to check the actual timekeeping of your watch. Makes it look like you just borrowed the watch to make a vid and get clicks... 😮

Long drawn out video with too much "waffle" (yawn) and no demonstration on changing the day/date. Very disappointing on what should've been a fully comprehensive review.

Try measuring the diameter yourself.
