Give a special gift to that special man with an eye on the sky with the Citizen Blue Angels JR3080-51L stainless steel watch that honors the Blue Angels, the legendary US Navy precision flying team, with an official Blue Angels insignia on the caseback. It's powered by Citizen's unique Eco-Drive, which absorbs sunlight and any artificial light through the crystal and dial to recharge the watch continuously. The fast-forward timekeeping features include time and calendar in twenty-two time zones, thirty cities, three world time alarms, a 99-minute countdown timer, one-touch interchangeable analog/digital time, and 1/100-second chronograph that measures up to 24 hours. The large round navy-blue bezel offers a bi-directional rotating slide rule with yellow triangle accents. The stainless steel bracelet band is composed of brushed and polished links. The navy blue dial background features large silver-tone hands and Arabic numerals. It also features water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet) and a scratch-resistant, non-reflective mineral crystal.

I am very happy with this watch. At first I was unhappy because the band broke twice, but I later found out that the girl that sized the bracelet for me used the wrong pins. So i recommend going to a good jeweler, or a watch store. not walmart or some department store.Nice looking watch, good weight. I'm very happy

As an owner of several similar style chronographs, including Seiko and another Citizen Eco-Drive, this is the watch I wear daily. I find this watch exceptional. Some of the complaints others have mentioned seem to be just a little picky in my opinion considering the context. Most of the "cons", like the size of the digital display and fact that it is not back-lit, are addressed in more expensive models such as the JY0040-59L. Subjectively, this is probably more of an issue with those of us with "over 40 eyes" anyway. Yes, the instruction manual could be a little easier to read but after the initial setup, how often are you going to use it anyway?
For the features one purchases a watch of this caliber... style, quality, comfort, reliability, functionality and accuracy (both my eco-drives are better than +/- 5 sec/month!), I don't see how you can go wrong with this watch, ESPECIALLY for the price (I paid $220 for mine). On top of this you get a watch that is as beautiful as it is functional along with the confidence and assurance knowing it's a Citizen! If you're sitting on the fence whether or not to get this watch... buy it, you won't be sorry!

I love my Skyhawk. It's almost the perfect watch.
I bought my first Skyhawk in Tokyo, at the legendary Akihabara. It was a titanium model, and it quickly became my only watch. (OK, we'll ignore my ultra-thin Calvin Klein "airport special", designed to go through metal detectors without setting them off.) I wore it for 6 years, and then I had the misfortune to damage the bracelet. I inquired, and found that I'd have to send it back to Japan for repair, at a ludicrous price. Instead I decided to buy a replacement; this time I opted for this stainless steel version from Amazon.
Why "almost perfect"? Well, as other reviewers have noted, the Skyhawk can only handle whole-hour time zones, and I need to travel to India on business quite often. This is frustrating. On my last trip, a few months ago, I stopped at the watch store in the new Hyderabad airport. I figured that the best place to find a Citizen watch that worked in India would be in India. And I was right - I was able to buy a Navihawk. It doesn't have Eco-Drive, but apart from that it's functionally equivalent to the Skyhawk - plus Indian time zone support! I paid a considerable price for it, but I don't mind: the Navihawk seems to have disappeared from the Amazon Citizen store.
So now I have two Citizen "hawks": a Navihawk, and a Skyhawk. The Navihawk is slightly lighter; the Skyhawk slightly more comfortable. When I'm at home, I pick one at random each morning. But next week, when I head off to Chennai on business, I'll be wearing the Navihawk. Life is good.

This watch is beautiful. I have a PhD (big deal), so I thought I could set it. Wrong! All I really need is to know what time it is in my zone, not what time it is in Zanzibar. I could not even get it set for that! The instruction book was not helpful; as most instuction books are it was badly written. It did not define unfamiliar terms. I ended up sending it back, so I still don't know what time it is. Maybe I never will.
