Having spent a considerable amount of time looking for a replacement for my 17-year old Casio watch, I have chosen to buy Citizen Red Arrows World Time watch. Ive had it for about 10 days now and I love it.
This watch has a large black dial protected by a mineral glass, white hour markers and white hour/minute hands with chrome edges. There are three additional mini-dials - top one shows elapsed minutes counted by the stopwatch, left one is a 24-hour hour indication and the bottom one shows the seconds of the current minute. In keeping with the Red Arrows theme, these mini-dials are designed to resemble instruments on an aircraft control panel, while the large second hand used by the stopwatch has a tip in the shape of a tiny red jet plane. A few other elements on the dial are finished in red colour, which makes the overall appearance more vibrant, while keeping it stylish.
The dial looks a little crowded at first sight and I wasnt initially certain whether this would affect the ease of checking the time. It turned out that that the stunning design does not hinder usability at all - taking time readings is effortless at all light levels. In low-light conditions secondary elements on the dial appear to fade away, making the hour markers and the main hour/minute hands stand out. The same is true in the darkness, thanks to glow-in-dark hands and markers. Date display is sat somewhat deeper into the clock dial than usual, which means that a shadow can be cast onto the date reading. This turned out not to be a problem either - its sufficient to change the angle of the watch slightly to be able to see the date clearly.
This Citizen watch has a push-pull type crown that is used for adjusting the date pulled out by one click and time pulled out by two clicks. Stopwatch function is activated by the button above the crown - when pressed, the stopwatch second hand starts moving. Pressing the same button again stops the stopwatch. It is possible to resume and stop the stopwatch by pressing on the same button multiple times. The button below the crown resets the stopwatch - when pressed, the second hand slowly travels clockwise and stops at 12, while the minute hand in the top mini-dial instantly jumps back to 12.
The second crown on the left-hand side of the watch is used to rotate the inner bezel labelled with the hours of the day. Names of the cities on the main watch dial remain static when this happens. This makes it easier to read out offsets between the times of day in various time zones.
The Citizen Eco-Drive movement is supposed to use ambient light to recharge the battery inside the watch, meaning that the battery should last the lifetime of the watch. I have not owned an Eco-Drive watch before, but from some limited research it appears that in the unlikely case of a battery failure, it can be replaced at a reasonable cost.
The watch comes with a stainless steel bracelet and has a double-press tri-fold deployment clasp. The bracelet is made up of 5 parallel bands three of them two outer ones and the one in the center have brushed finish, while the other two have polished finish. There are 8 full-sized and 2 half-sized removable links all marked by an arrow on the inner side, which can be used to adjust the length of the bracelet. Fine adjustment can be achieved by choosing the right combination of full-sized and half-sized links to remove. There is no fine adjustment option on the clasp as is sometimes available in other brands, but thanks to varying sizes of removable bracelet links this is not needed.
The bracelet can be adjusted without specialist equipment by pushing out the pins, holding the removable links, in the direction shown by the arrow. Locking mechanism in the clasp is removable, so can be taken out for cleaning, repairs or replacement.
It is worth pointing out that this model CA0080-54E has a sister model CA0080-03E which has an identical watch but has a different bracelet: a black leather bracelet with red stitching. In my view, the leather bracelet seems to complete the appearance of the watch better, but a stainless steel one is more practical.
Dimensions:
case diameter - 42mm 47mm in the widest place, including crowns/buttons
case thickness - 12mm
bracelet width - 21mm
Weight:
145g - watch with the full-length bracelet
135g - with two full-sized links removed.
Pros:
+ Stylish unusual design with an aviation theme
+ Large clear watch dial
+ Very easy to read time in any light conditions
+ Good accuracy - no clock drift observed within a week after setting the time initially
+ Appears to have a good quality movement - both second hands hit the markers exactly.
Cons:
- Mineral glass is less scratch-resistant that a sapphire crystal
- Stopwatch automatically stops after 60 minutes instead of starting over
- Elapsed minutes measured by stopwatch are difficult to read on the top mini-dial
- Second crown on the left-hand side of the watch cannot be secured / de-activated, which means that the inner bezel showing the hours is too easy to move out of position unintentionally
- If worn on the left hand, buttons for starting / stopping / resetting stopwatch can be pressed inadvertently when placing the hand into the pocket.

I have never purchased anything on line so I was reluctant to spend a large amount of money on once item on line, But I could not have been more wrong, the service was very easy, the payment went through with no hitch and delivery was very fast, also the tracking service was brilliant, the item purchased is of a better quality I would have ever imagined and the gift box it came in was a lovely bonus. I would defiantly recommend this site and if I ever need any future purchases I would return. I would say this is a five star service. The only thing I found being a problem is having to wait to give this gift to my husband as a present for Christmas!!

This product is impressive in its style and overall weight. The face immediately stands out but its not too overpowering. The Red Arrows theme gives the watch a sleek edge and all the colours run smoothly together.
This product could have extra links with it in case of future damaged however this is only a small minor complaint.
Very happy with the product.

I had no problem ordering the watch from the website, it was really easy and efficient. My conformation E-mail came immediately, and payment was taken quickly also. I did have a problem, when I didnt receive my E-mail for confirming that the watch had been delivered into my click and collect destination, but once I raised this with the Watch Shops customer services team, this was sorted quickly and to a satisfactory result, thanks Tom. In all, even with the small issue that arose, I would recommend the Watch shop to others, and I would certainly use them again.
