Citizen Eco-Drive Men's Promaster Navihawk A.TJY8030-83E

I’ve had my Citizen Navihawk for a few days now and I have to say that I am very happy with my purchase.The watch is large and very noticeable. It draws admiring glances that make it a good conversation starter and makes you feel proud to own it. The mesh bracelet looks stunning on a tanned wrist and helps make the watch look more expensive than it actually is. The display is well set out and has lots of information available on tap. If you are a born button pusher like me you will find lots to keep you entertained. The World Time feature is well thought out and works well whether on holiday or travelling to meetings overseas. The chronometer functions are easy to use and the large watch hands with their luminous coating help you to see the time even in the dark. Finally the five year Citizen guarantee can be increased to six years just by registering the watch with Citizen - very reassuring.On the slightly negative side, the bracelet is a bit fiddly to close, but gets easier with practice. The two displays showing the City and time/date in digital format are difficult to read unless you have adequate light on the face of the watch. True, the watch has a backlight, but this is fairly dim and only really useful in a darker environment. I have another Citizen solar watch using this same type of digital display and it is very easy to read in any light so I’m unsure why the Navihawk digital displays have been made in this way. Reading the tiny print around the inside face of the watch will be a problem for some people, but all-in-all this is a superb time-piece and I have no reservations in recommending it.

I am struggling to understand the instructions which were not included with the watch.However I downloaded them.It is really accurate and I mean to the second. Very easy to read time but you need good eyesight to see date display and other settings.I was going to return but it is a great looking watch and I will enjoy learning and use it as an everyday watch

A beautiful pragmatic watch with tons of functons

The navihawk is a brilliant watch...it's a quality watch and does everything I expect....I don't wear the watch everyday ...I wore this watch for 2 weeks whilst on holiday in turkey...so it got wet in the pool and sea...on my return I noticed that the black paint on the little navihawk plaque was coming off....I phoned citizen to express my disgust as paint shouldn't be coming off in the water...they said I can return it to see if it can be repaired under guarantee...sorry I don't want to wait 2 weeks to have it back....a little disappointed In a watch in this price bracket...and disappointed from the reaction of citizen...

I received this watch yesterday (Sunday 17 june)having previously returned the same model but with a yellow ring and a black bezel.It is spectacular in appearance and I just love it but the digital readouts are so dark it's almost impossible to see the digital time, stop watch function or timer function.I've got a manifying glass with 3 mini lights built in and its still difficult to read what's going on.Besides which you can't juggle holding the mag glass while operating the stop watch.It's so gorgeous that I decided to keep it in spite of what I consider a major defect in it's design.They should have gone with the yellow ringed model and had black numbers/letters on a light grey background which is also the same as my 18 year old skyhawk.The digital readout is also seriously ineffective when you light it up at night, being a weak red sort of light.But it shouts out "Look at me, aren't I fantastic!"when it's on your wrist!If your eye sight's better than mine (by a lot)and you don't mind the hard to read digitals then get one.Actually, I've decided to return it.I'm gutted! But I can't see the point of having a watch with all the digital readouts not being visible in normal daylight

This is an absolute beauty.I have not yet got around to looking at all the functions but everything seems to be working fine.The watch face is large and looks stunning on your wrist.i have to admit the digital side of it is a little hard to make out as the windows are very small but all in all i'm very happy and it's well worth a £400 price tag..Delivery was very quick as usual so a big well done all round.

Excellent watch. Looks are very impressive - very stricking looks, really looks a lot more expensive. Large and heavy. Feels great. The display is quite busy. The digital display can be difficult to read. It does have a backlight which makes it easier to see, but still not perfect. The instructions you have to download from the Citizen website. They can be a little complicated. Overall I love this watch and adds to my other existing Citizen collection.

I love this watch, yes the info on the screen is small and frankly small enough to not be that useful but I bought this for how it looks and that it is great quality. I was not let down, it is great and often get asked by people about it. It is quite a big piece which I like but consider this as is heavy too. Overall it's fantastic and about £100 cheaper than selling in shops too.
