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.

Straton Curve Chrono MKII

The watch offers a retro motorsport aesthetic with a quality finish and well-chosen movements at an affordable price. Reviewers did not agree on any specific weaknesses.
