This is my first expensive watch; the most expensive watch Ive owned previously was a ~$80 fossil watch.  Thus, I cannot offer much advice for the watch connoisseurs that are considering this item.

I am extremely pleased with this watch thus far.

Rookie observation/one pointer: don't be too ambitious in trying to set the watch within even a few hours after getting it out of the box and having it exposed to light for charging.  It behaved oddly and the functionality was limited.  I set it on the edge of a table with a lamp on the floor and the light source about 10 inches away from the watch face overnight and the next morning, everything worked fine because it obtained a strong charge.  I know I might be mastering the obvious by pointing this out as some of this is stated in the manual, but to guy whos never owned a dive watch, and isn't used to a second hand that doesnt sweep in normal time mode, etc., this might be helpful to the over-anxious, new-owner like me who tried to rush the setup.

The look is very classy and I can wear this with anything.  I am going to contact Citizen and see if they have a matching stainless band for it.
