ive wanted this watch for around six months now but never had the money together to afford it. finally decided to buy it. half exspecting to be a fake, knock off, highly damaged or sure it would be pre owned i wasnet exspecting anything, espically since this price is over a hundred dollars below MSRP. but i guess sometimes things aren't too good to be true. watch came in flawless condition in its original container with the correct marks on the back of the face of the watch, and with no sign of ownership prior to mine. got to be honest, im amazed. excellent purchase reccomend to everyone looking for a exceptional product. this is my second Citizen watch, and in my experince have not experinced a superior quality watch thus far.
