Rekindle the past with the Avion vintage-inspired men’s chronograph watch by Citizen. Paying homage to the golden age of travel, this timepiece features a green dial with a rich caramel brown leather strap with contrast stitching. This retro-styled men’s watch features a 1/5 second chronograph that measures up to 60 minutes, 12/24 hour time and date. Sporting a silver-tone stainless steel case, the water-resistant Avion also features Citizen’s sustainable Eco-Drive technology, powering the watch by light. For those with eclectic taste, the Avion delivers every time.

This is a nice watch, for the price. Face wise I love the green color, but wish they had opted out on the huge solo "12" on the dial. There are no other numbers on the dial, and it seems out of place, cheapening the overall aesthetic IMO. Small complaint, the band however is sinful. It seems to be a thin strip of "leather", inside and outside, with some type of foam between them. It is not a thick piece of leather. I immediately swapped it out for a better quality full leather band.

Even better on the wrist in person. The shade of brown leather makes the green dial pop. Looks awesome. The tach buttons both have a tactile click when engaging for the first time, to start and reset. They go "soft" for the stop and when the tach is not running (for the restart button). Really like this, you know what function you're hitting without even looking. Very cool engineering.

A very good looking watch and extremely accurate keeping time. I find the leather band a bit to thick however, it makes feel a bulky on my wrist. I suppose I'll get used to that in time.

Very happy with my purchase. This is my 2nd Citizen watch. Had, and still have, my first one 25 years ago. It is Eco Drive and radio controlled. Getting used to a leather strap watch, having worn a link band for so long. New Avion is not radio controlled.

Beautiful watch. I love wearing it and I've had multiple complements already. Easy to read and keeps great time. The Eco-drive system deeps it charged all of the time. Very reasonable price point as well. Only two things could be better. I'd love if they used sapphire glass and a thicker leather to hold the excess strap down.

The watch dial is beautiful. Amazing work - stunning dial. The strap is a fine leather contrast that works really well. However, The leather “keepers” are the cheapest I’ve ever seen on a watch. I’m hoping this was a gross oversight. I can’t believe someone signed off on the strap as is.
