Fantastic Watch in Almost Every Way
I have always tried to buy and like a Citizen watch. Many years ago I bought a dress watch, ended up selling it. I was then gifted a black chronograph and ended up returning it. The main issue was that they were all too big for my wrist.I’ve always liked Citizen’s diver’s and just wished they came in a size smaller than 44mm. And to my surprise I came across this ‘37mm’ range.The watch is advertised as women’s but anyone can wear it. I’m a man and I have smaller wrists and the watch fits me perfectly and the styling is truly unisex. I opted for the sky blue variant and love the mix of navy blue for the dial and bezel, sky blue for the hour marker borders and a touch of orange on the minutes hand. The colour scheme works. The diameter of the case is actually a tad smaller at 36.5mm.I’m extremely pleased with the robustness of the build, the accuracy of the eco-drive movement and quality of watch for the price. It’s now a solid part of the collection alongside my Seiko diver.Would highly recommend.

Great quality dive watch suitable for small wrists.
My wife wanted a watch suitable for swimming, but which also looks good. This Citizen looks great, particularly the blue accents on the dial. Apparently it is comfortable too. It is a certified dive watch and the solar movement means there is no need to disturb the case back, so it should remain water resistant. I have owned another couple of eco-drives and they are very accurate, reliable and one is nearing twenty years old without needing any servicing. The only negative is the attractive blue strap is picking up dirt and is difficult to clean, otherwise I recommend this watch.

Great Little Watch
Amazing Diver. Proper watch just smaller size. Perfect marriage of design, colour and function (got the blue one). Feels light but safe on my wrist. Almost too small especially if you are used to G-Shocks or Casio Duro or Seiko or Orient but it's great to have Citizen explore smaller models.I highly recommend it.Great lume and beautiful finish and details. Solar powered and very reliable. 5 Stars!!

Very versatile!
I bought this watch for my 14 year-old daughter. Here is her review:When I first took the watch jut of its packaging, it seemed fairly small (I had been wearing a larger watch beforehand). However, I quickly adapted to the size and think it is just right for my wrist as mine is quite small. I was slightly disappointed to find the watch packaged in a regular Citizen box instead of a diver cylinder, but it is a lottery as to which you will receive.I was looking for a watch that is solar powered, has at least 100m water resistance, luminous markers, date, and this ticked all my boxes! Some customers complained about the size of the date box, but I think it is fine, and like how it covers the 4th marker instead of the 3rd. The luminous markers have a very strong glow (the picture above was taken after charging it with a UV light) and, although it does not stay bright for long, it lasts for several hours and can still be made out in the early hours of the morning after an evening charge.Style-wise, I was unsure about the strap at first (I was initially set on a metal strap) but the colour looks better in person and feels comfortable on the wrist. I have needed to wash the strap a few times though, because dirt builds up very quickly on it.One thing I personally like about the watch is that the lugs are not too fat. I ruled out quite a few because of this. The watch face may be plain, but I like how it highlights the strap. Also, the blue accents are a nice touch.When the watch first arrived, the battery was flat. It is difficult to charge in winter, and LEDs don't appear to charge it sufficiently. I managed to stop the second-skipping mode by walking outside for an hour, but a few days later it went back into this mode. One trick I have used to keep it charged is putting it on top of my coat sleeve for maximum sunlight exposure.Overall, I am very pleased with the watch! It looks stunning in real life and is suitable for many occasions.
