What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Citizen PCAT

The Citizen PCAT is praised for its polished and brushed stainless steel case, blue bezel insert, and tachymeter scale. Reviewers note its navy dial with polished silver elements and sub-dials that change functions by mode, along with radio-controlled timekeeping, a perpetual calendar, and 200 meters of water resistance. The redesigned bezel and sapphire crystal covering the tachymeter scale are considered attractive features. One owner notes the E650 movement supports five atomic time zones, fewer than some other models. Lug width is uncertain, with suggestions of 22mm or 24mm. Older PCAT models require changing the mode to "CHR" to operate the chronograph. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Citizen PCAT for its robust feature set and attractive, functional design.

From video reviewers

The watch features a sapphire crystal and a perpetual calendar. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.

Orient Multi-Year Calendar

Owners report the Orient Multi-Year Calendar features a complex analog display for tracking days and dates across multiple years, housed in a 45mm stainless steel case with 100m water resistance. Some owners view the watch as a visually appealing novelty, noting that manual adjustment is required for months and that the older 20-year calendar version is difficult to find. One owner observed only light signs of wear on their watch, with minor desk rash on the buckle visible only under magnification. On balance, owners appreciate the unique calendar complication as a visually appealing novelty.
