Citizen Men's Promaster Navihawk A-T Eco-Drive Pilot Watch, Atomic Timekeeping, Chronograph

This watch exceeded my expectations even after reading the comments. As an aviator this watch will ensure you don't miss the time hack, and is visible night and day. Last week, I took a picture and noticed after the flight the seconds displayed in the aircrafts GPS time was matched exactly with the second hand of the watch....wow. Anyone who needs accurate timing and practical uses while looking sharp Should consider this piece. As an aside I know many folks don't care for the band, but I actually prefer it. It's awesome! I can't stop looking at this time piece! If I ever need a replacement it will be the same model! Update 7 Years Later: I've flown all over the world, in all types of aircraft with this watch and it keeps perfect time to the second still with the atomic clock radio update. I was able to update in parts of Africa (not always), The Middle East/Aisa, and in Hong Kong, and across Europe. It's survived quite a bit, hard duty flying on and off ships at sea, (the Radar has fried multiple other Casios for reference which is why I bought this because of the certified ANTIMAG 4800 spec, it didn't fall short of that spec or it would have been fried like my previous Casios) It survived a road bike, and hard landing/Crash (from an engine failure prior to landing) The crystal has been scratched and I took it to a jeweler to be cleaned and get a citizen original band for the same model I even tried ordering direct from Citizen but was unsuccessful. I've gone through 2 other Barton bands which have a good look. The glass we couldn't get the deeper scratches out, it's not a hardened sapphire but if that is my only complain than I'm doing pretty good. It still doesn't look too bad though, picture on the wrist attached. Even today I looked at the GPS system time in the aircraft and the watch was perfectly in sync to the second. Due to the nostalgia I have from traveling with this watch I think I might elect to retire it, but for the cost I doubt I can do much better. I suspect for good luck on next check rides etc. I will break this watch out and be the same old friend by my side as it has for the years since purchase. I know that it will continue to be as reliable as the air beneath my wings. I HIGHLY encourage if you are thinking about the watch to buy it. It IS a beauty, while being a silent steward that never gives up and is precise while enduring the unreal adventure that you might be thinking of starting next.

Let’s watch works really great. Looks good on me. He feels comfortable. I’m glad I got a good deal on it.

Purchased this in lieu of the Citizen AT8025-51E. It doesn't have the sapphire crystal and screw-down crown of the 8025, but does provide the same functionality and then some: timer; 1/100s chrono; two alarms; simultaneous display of two separate times; day-of-the-week display; compass -- provided you know how to use it; and auto DST adjust. The AT (Atomic Time) feature works great. I live in the South and have no problems receiving the signal (RX strength is High). I own several other Citizen watches and the perpetual calendar feature is a must have, but now with the AT, and the factory default set to auto, I don't have to worry about day light savings time (I F'N HATE DST!!!). A lot of people comment on the OEM band. I didn't bother with it...it's a rubber bracelet. Once unboxed, I immediately replaced it with a spare 23mm watch band as is used on my LUMINOX 8350 -- a very flexible and rugged PU watch band, which for me, averages about 2-3 years between replacements; LUMINOX gets the Best-Watchband-Ever award for this one. One of the primary reasons for not buying the AT8025 was the bracelet. I'm not a fan of bracelets (metal or otherwise) as they don't wear well and don't adjust to the situation (for wearing over wet-suits or other long sleeve protective clothing). Two features I don't like: 1) having to pull out the crown to the first position to change between modes (chrono, timer, time, alarms, etc.). My other Citizen's with similar functionality didn't require this, which tends to make one think twice before using it; 2) my other Citizen watches didn't have a back light, and this one does, which is a plus. The fact that the back light doesn't work in chrono or timer mode is a major fail. I could understand this if the dial had Tritium vials in the major markers and second hand, but the second hand has no luminescence (period), and any luminescence is via paint. If only Citizen would incorporate Tritium markers into their watches...then they would be the best watch ever! Several of my watches have Tritium markers and are still glowing strong 24/7/365 after 10+ years. It may cause cancer in the state of CA, but Tritium works great!

I have been eyeing this watch and was patient for the past three years. I think I got the best deal on the whole wide web at any given point through this watch's sale. This is an incredible timepiece that is must to be part of your watch collection. First things first it is it has an incredibly big watch face at 48mm. Something like the offering from Diesel or the Seiko Lords series. So if you have wrist size 6 or less you should pass on this one. Another over six works great. This bad boy catches people's attention right off the bat. If you appreciate the incredible engineering that has gone into designing and providing the functionality in this watch. It is probably the only watch on the market which provides so many features in the given price range. Atomic time keeping and eco drive means your watch is essentially going to be maintenance free and accurate with atomic radio sync taking place every day at 2am in the morning. World time is another feature along with the digital display coupled with analog to give it that extra edge in terms of functionality. If you still appreciate the aesthetics of a classic analog watch this will be an incredible addition to your collection. Lastly there is one major disadvantage that might be a deal breaker for a lot of people. The watch face houses a mineral crystal instead of sapphire glass that is the norm these days for any high end watches. So the watch face scratches easily. You can have citizen change your watch face for under $100 but yes this face will scratch easily. So you can't be carefree with this one. Absolute must to have go ahead get this. Best investment you'll make and the resale value on the watch is also incredible. So it'd be easy to offload the watch if you do get bored after a couple of years.

I really like this watch. I really do. It has tons of functions and it looks amazing as well. I am a chef so I use timer and alarm the most. One of my favorite feature about this watch is that unlike many other digital watch (I. E. Lower end Casio) you do not push buttons set timer or alarm. You rotate the watch stem either clock or counter clock wise to set it. Not only it is faster to change but also it allows you to go back instead of pushing down button all the way around if you made a mistake while setting it. However, I still have some other issues with digital display. First it is very hard to read in low light condition. I understand that negative display looks better than positive display but at the same time it is so much harder to read it in a less than ideal lighting environment. Second, whenever analog hands cover over digital display it becomes much harder to use other features because you can't see it. I know that this is a common problem with many Ana-dig watches. But I already saw some solutions to this problems in other watches. For example some Casio watches automatically move hands away from their display whenever you are using chronograph function. I can't imagine it would be that hard to implement it but then I am not a watch designer. Third, you can't use back lighting while using timer or chronograph. The watch doesn't have dedicated backlight button. You can light the display by pressing upper right button but that button is also used for stopping timer or chronograph. Even though I am little disappointed about its functions I still really like the watch. Frankly, if you don't care about those little functions and just want cool looking pilot watch that is accurate, then I would highly recommend this watch. And yes you do have to cut the rubber bands before you can wear it but it is really easy to do( just be careful not to cut it too much at once. There is no going back) I give four stars out of five since this is an overall excellent watch despite few flaws. I suspect those flaws that I have mentioned in the review won't bother majority of the people who would buy it anyway.

Great looking watch. Obviously very accurate since it reads the time from the WWVB radio station (Atomic Clock) in the US. Love the UTC time on the small upper dial, and quick change of time-zones, etc. Not too difficult to learn to use. Just read the online manual, and/or watch the video. If you are a pilot you'll appreciate the circular slide rule which is turned using the lower-left knob. I haven't flown with it yet, but imagine using it in flight would be my last resort. Love that you never need to charge the watch (unless you are Count Dracula). Not crazy about the rubber wrist band. You will need to cut it to size, and it is an involved process, so take your time. (Search YouTube for a video) or if you don't trust yourself, take it to a watch shop. If you cut too close to the 'tunnel', and don't leave sufficient rubber your risk the band tearing out and the watch falling off. Replacement bands are about $100. The anodized coating on the band snap is wearing off on the edge after just 1 week. Also, the night-lighting only illuminates the digital section which may be displaying a number of things depending on your current settings. Overall, very happy with the purchase. Looks and works as good as a watch that easily costs 10-20x as much.

So, back in 1997 I had bought my first citizen and it was a navihawk. I really loved that watch and this last winter I came across this one and had to have it. For many people I imagine that this watch is overkill. The face has a lot going on. Then there is the "sliderule" bezel on top of it all. Having the slide rule inside the crystal is a good example of the designers getting it right. My older version of this watch left that outer ring exposed, and over time it became worn and really hard to read. If you take the time to learn how to use this feature / tool, it could be a problem. At any rate, this is a fantastic watch. It's kinda redundant I guess to give it "stars" for accuracy, because it synchronizes itself to NIST time via radio which IS accuracy. (I do not know if it is possible to be any more accurate)

Upon purchasing this watch, I wanted to wear it for a few weeks before providing a comprehensive review because early on, I could sense some pros and cons to the piece and I wanted an honest feel for the watch first. (My reviews tend to be detailed, so you can skip to the SUMMARY below to get the short pros and cons) Let me open by saying that this watch is an excellent piece, especially for the Aviation watch enthusiast. Many watches are called "aviation watches" but in most cases they're "aviation style" watches, not having the specific features that real aviator watches require. With the subdials on this watch providing 24hr local time, 24hr Zulu (UTC) time and an incredibly detailed bezel providing actual sliderule functionality for fuel use and various mathematical functions, I think this watch is a powerhouse (especially at this price point) for the aviator or the aviation enthusiast. Form: The watch being stainless steel is quite heavy which might be a deterrent for some but not me as the weight gives it a feel of quality. The main hour, minute and second hands are quite readable with their orange outline on the dark background. The rest of the watch face is packed with information both on the subdials and the face and bezel. The detail is so fine, however, that with my questionable eyesight I have some trouble reading the finer markings on the bezel and subdials- especially the tiny orange markers on the black and brown face. For people who don't have absolute 20/20 vision, this may be something you want to consider. When I was shopping online for the watch, all the pictures and video were of course zoomed in at monitor size so I never considered how the actual size would look in actual use. I consider this to be mainly my problem-- but I think it's something that should be mentioned as not everyone has perfect vision. The negative LCD displays are quite readable in good light, but can be difficult to see in the twighlight hours such as evening and early morning. The backlight does a good job of illuminating these in darkness. Negative LCDs tend to look sharp in bright light, but I'm becoming less enthralled with them (I own a couple of watches with them) as I think their readability is less sharp overall. In addition to this, I'm also becoming less enthralled by analog/digital display as most watches (including this one) get their displays annoyingly blocked at certain times of day by the hour/minute hand. This is a minor frustration, but a very real one when you're trying to read digital display and the time is around 4:25 obscuring the window causing you to have to twist and turn the watch to try to see under the hands. The band. What to say about the band? I didn't have as much trouble with the band as some reviewers have suffered, but I do understand their concerns. The band must be cut for proper sizing and unlike a steel link bracelet, if you cut too much, you can't add back to it. I strongly suggest cutting one 'segment' at a time (just in front of the inserted pin) alternating left side/right side until you get close to the proper fit. Note that in the folding clasp, there are two (2) positions for the pinned band to click into. Before cutting one more segment from the band, put it in the inner position to see if that fits, if it's very close, just move it out to the outer position to avoid having to cut more. This was provided so you could make minor adjustments without having to cut to exact length. Citizen could have avoided this complication by providing a standard buckle and retainer instead of a folding security clasp. I'm not sure why they insisted on putting a folding clasp on a rubber band, but it's not the best solution. If you sell or give the watch away, the next person's wrist will have to be the same size or smaller, otherwise they'll have to purchase a new band. Function: I won't go into detail here because function is fairly straightforward and you can read details in the product description. Everything works well, and exactly as advertised. I'm not 100% sold on the use of the pullout crown to change modes and move through Chronograph/calendar/timer mode, but it's not really a problem-- just seems like an unnecessary complication which feels slightly clunky. It works well though and it's never given me a problem. Illumination on the dial is good but not great. Certainly not as good as my Citizen Altichron Promaster which has very bold illumination with the pip at 12 o'clock color-differentiated for clarity. The atomic time function is excellent and successfully receives the automatic signal nightly no matter where it sits in my home. I have another atomic time watch which is much more touchy and has to be in very specific places in my home to pull. Ecodrive as always is difficult to review because it's a long-term function, but as with my other solar watches, this one shows a full charge and hasn't dipped below that with regular exposure to sunlight. Summary: I was torn about whether to give this watch a 3 or a 4 star rating due the readability issues and the band. The readability issues I believe are mainly my own due to the fact that I don't have 20/20 vision. However I think the choice of using the dark orange on the black/brown background made it all the more difficult to read- especially the incredibly tiny indicators found on the subdials and inner bezel. I do believe the band style was a poor choice by citizen, but not a deal breaker if you cut it carefully (use a very sharp blade, cutting just in front of each segment pinhole). However, it was unnecessary in my opinion had they simply provided a standard buckle vs. the folding clasp. The watch in general is an excellent aviator watch, not just an aviator "style" watch which permeate the market that lack actual useful aviation features. Features alone would give this watch a five star review. I certainly love this watch and enjoy wearing it despite the very tiny and sometimes difficult to read markings. The band was not the best design, but I was able to cut it to my wrist size with little trouble and it fits perfectly. Pros: True aviator watch with excellent functionality. Dizzying number of functions. Atomic time function works extremely well, successfully pulling signals anywhere in my home. Cons: Smaller bezel and subdial markings can be difficult in low light or without 20/20 vision. Band requires cutting-- which might be offputting to some people- makes resale value questionable forcing second-hand buyer to possibly purchase new band. I'm giving this watch a 3 star review because this is how the watch rates for me. Again, I was torn between a 3 and 4 star rating because this really is a good watch, but its readability, negative LCD display and the band dropped it to 3 stars. Consider my review 3.5 stars.

It is very good watch. The only issue is that rubber strap shall be cut to adjust

Reloj Citizen con el legendario movimiento U680, el cual tiene bastantes funciones y se ve bastante impresionante es un reloj de piloto real, este modelo viene con caja antimagnetica en acero inoxidable, correa de goma, y bisel interno giratorio con indices para realizar cálculos matemáticos de velocidad y consumo. Aunque el reloj es bastante grande es bastante cómodo y ligero. No puedo creer que lo haya puesto a un precio tan bajo, si lo ven en oferta no duden en comprarlo vale totalmente la pena. La correa de goma tiene que cortarse a la medida por lo que solo lo puede usar una persona, si se requiere modificar la medida de la muñeca tienen que comprar otra correa nueva.

Ottimo orologio con la classica e proverbiale qualità Citizen. Purtroppo in Italia non viene commercializzato ed ho tentennanto un anno prima di acquistarlo ma, col senno di poi, vista l'ottima assistenza del venditore e la qualità della ditta di spedizione FedEx, non avrei esitato così tanto. Unico piccolo avviso deriva dal fatto che nelle istruzioni non è presente l'italiano ma basta cercare sul sito Citizen per trovare anche la nostra lingua. SPETTACOLO
