I purchased an earlier version of this Blue Angel watch. At the time it was the most I had ever spent for a watch. I've had it for 3 ir 4 years. As I speak, it's sitting on a shelf in my bedroom flashing incoherently. I did NOT buy this watch at Amazon. I bought it from a watch shop in a local mall. I have dozens of watches in my collection, with a Rolex Submariner being the most expensive. The owner of the shop replaced the "brains" of the watch twice, at no charge. When I bring the watch in this time, I don't think it fair for me to ask him to do it again. The watch was a lemon. Pure and simple. On the other hand (no pun intended)the watch required a degree in engineering to set. I sent away, and got a DVD to help me do so. It' so complicated to set this watch that I gave up and only wore it during daylight savings time, which is when I last set it. Like I said, I have many watches, so this is a luxury to be able to wear such a nice time piece part time. I know that Citizen has a solid reputation. I have two other eco-drives that work flawlessly. One is a cobalt blue dive watch with orange hands that is gorgeous. This one simply did not stand the test of time. There are "lemon" cars, and, I guess, lemon watches, but if I were to be brutally honest--I would say stay away from this model. Other reviews have touched on some of the problems associated with this watch, especially time-zone setting. In a couple of words--stay away.
