I loved my old Citizen watch, but alas, it finally died. When I found out how much it would cost to fix, I figured it was best to replace it after about 15 years of great service. Sticking to Citizen, I found this watch with the black face and second hand. Very attractive, not too heavy, but tricky to fit the wrist. Out of the box it was way too loose. Had some links removed then it was too tight. Had 1 put back in, and now it is oddly loose when I first put it on, then tighter a bit later!! My only other comment is that the date opening is very small and might have been better left off altogether. That is the reason for the 4 stars, not 5. I can only hope that this one wears as long and well as my old Citizen. Love not having to replace batteries!
