Citizen Men’s Eco-Drive Nighthawk Stainless Steel Watch #BJ7000-52E

This is the fourth watch I have ever owned. In the past I’ve had a Timex, a Swatch, a Skagen, and now I have a Citizen. Each watch has served a purpose at various points in my life. This watch is a perfect step up from a Skagen or similarly inexpensive, but well-designed, timepiece.

The watch feels heavy on the wrist if you are accustomed to a mesh or leather band. You will always be aware of it on your wrist. It goes well with both casual and dress attire.

The watch is easy to read and even simpler to set. The intuitively-designed complication and crown operation make using it to track two different time zones quite easy. The date is also easily set and changed. The screw-in crown makes the watch feel sturdy and solid.

The slide-rule is useful and well-designed. It’s simplicity and utility makes the watch an even better choice for everyday use. The eco-drive power system makes this a watch you could keep for life.
