The Citizen Nighthawk (ref. CA0295) is a solar pilot watch, with a 42mm stainless steel case, powered by the B612 movement. Water resistance is rated to 200m, under a mineral crystal, with 1/5 second chronograph measures up to 60 minutes, 12/24 hour time, date complications. Manufacturer MSRP is $431.
Owners widely praise the Citizen Nighthawk for its value, intricate dial with applied indices and red accents, and strong wrist presence. The Eco-Drive B877 movement is noted for its accuracy, with one owner reporting zero deviation over five days, and its ability to track dual timezones with a GMT hand. The brushed case finish and solid, attractive bracelet are also frequently highlighted. However, the mineral crystal is a consistent drawback, with multiple sources noting its reflectivity and vulnerability to scratches, especially considering the watch's price point. Some owners find the dial difficult to read in low light, the internal bezel crown position awkward, and the watch heavy. Overall, owners rate the Citizen Nighthawk highly for its striking dial and accurate Eco-Drive movement, with the mineral crystal being the most frequently cited compromise.
