One owner measured the case at 45.8mm, larger than the listed 42mm, and flagged the 3 ATM water resistance as Citizen's lowest rating, while another wished the "12" marker was an Earth view and noted the date window is not lumed. Overall, owners rate the Citizen Hometown Mickey Mouse highly for its fun, detailed dial and upscale bracelet at the price.
