Citizen PCATvsYema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II

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.

Owners widely praise the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II for its cool retro 70s vibe, faithful reissue of a thin vintage design, and excellent build quality for its price, with particular commendation for its tactile pushers and top-notch Milanese strap. The watch is noted for its substantial, weighty feel and well-aligned indices, and the Seiko VK64 meca-quartz movement provides a sweeping chronograph hand. However, some owners find the meca-quartz ticking not very smooth, the left subdial a "useless" 24h indicator, and the watch overpriced compared to similar models. Several owners report disappointing alignment issues with indices, and one owner experienced the dial rotating slightly when chronograph pushers are depressed or when adjusting the time, with these issues not resolved during service. On balance, owners rate the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II highly for its retro styling and perceived value, despite some recurring quality control concerns.
