Had it. Sold it. Got the Blue Angels. Love it! And yes, the wing profile of the links is a great nod to flight. I prefer 40mm or less but this 42 wears comfortable and doesn’t look too large on my 6-5/8” wrist, and those sword hands make it super easy to quickly view the time. If you’re thinking about this, just get it. It’s better in the metal and price-to-value is hard to beat.

At 187 dollars on Amazon as I write this, a case can be made this is the better watch for the money right now. Very tempting. Thanks for the review.

I would love if you got your hands on one of the new citizen Skyhawks for review. They look so interesting but very little reviews.
@jasonschwartz85077 жыл бұрын
Does the seconds hand hit the markers exactly? Can you adjust the hands for alignment? I know the more expensive Skyhawk hands can be aligned manually.
@JustBlueFish7 жыл бұрын
Jason Schwartz the second hand alignment was very good, as I recall, but I don't have the watch anymore it was loaned to me from a buddy. I don't think you could manually align it but I'm not certain about that.

I recently picked up the Nighthawk Blue Angels model. It is a phenomenal time piece. For years I have invested in Swiss mechanical watches but I wanted to try a solar model. Let's be realistic, quartz is just more accurate. The first quartz watch I bought was the Certina Chronometer. You just can't get much better. Now I am considering the Citizen Eco - Drive Satellite. Do you have any thoughts on this watch?
@JustBlueFish6 жыл бұрын
Hey Gregory thanks for watching. I can't say I'm familiar with the Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite, I'll have to look it up.

guys, help me out. Citizen makes a Titanium version of this with a sapphire glass. It is a euro model only. Does anyone know the exact model number? Citizen doesnt show it on their website.

is it pronounced as 'echo' drive? I thought because it is an ecological watch - as in its more green than quartz watches that use batteries, eco is an abbreviation of ecological.

JustBlueFish yea I'm still deciding. love the dial. although the numbers are far too small to actually use it for calculation etc.... bracelets decent as well. I've put a black leather strap on to give it that breitling look!!

Can I put a nato strap on this? I heard it's a tight fit

This was a watch on loan, I never tried to take it off the bracelet so I don't know for sure how any other straps would fit.

1.5 mm clearance on pin to case. Thinner 22mm bands will work. Thick leathers that have more than 1.4 mm on the band and pin edge diameter is gonna not work. Use special tool kit.

Doesn't the quartz sort of go bad after 15 - 20 years? Maybe that's what they meant by the "lifetime battery" - lifetime of the watch

I don't know, I've never heard that, but that could be true. I'll have to research that a little more further.

*Would’ve been nice if you had demonstrated the Dual Time Zone function. Your buddy that loaned you the watch wouldn’t have minded if you had adjusted the hands to show your viewers what you instead told us. Further explanation is definitely needed. This video was 30 minutes. There was ample time to address one of the main functions of this timepiece. SMH!!* *I like your mechanical watch reviews much better.*
