My last watch I owned was a Citizen Echo drive Titanium wristband watch. I had it for 10 years before it stopped working. I purchased this watch and it is a tiny bit bigger but still very light. The watch itself is even larger than my last one. In my opinion I find Citizen makes a great quality watch. I really like the sapphire crystal, and as for some people saying that the watch is more of a grayish color, I think it's a very nice blue. This is my everyday watch as well as using it for a dress watch. It's just a beautiful and comfortable watch to wear and it's not big and bulky and a joy to wear. I will purchase another one when this one goes which will most likely be in another ten years if not longer. I am also going to see if I can get my other one fixed because it's still in great shape. Go to the jewelers and try one on and find out for yourself just how light and stylish this watch is and you can be the judge of what I say about this watch.
