Citizen Men’s JY0050-55L “Blue Angels Skyhawk A-T” Watch Review

First Impressions

If you spend quite a bit of your time indoors but still want to let others know that you have a rugged side to you, you can definitely get the message across with the Citizen Men’s JY0050-55L “Blue Angels Skyhawk A-T” Watch. Make no mistake about it, with its low water resistance rating and metal build, the JY0050-55L isn’t designed for conquering the great outdoors or plumbing the depths though deep sea diving. It is an ‘action’ watch that is intended primarily for indoor wear. At best, you can use it for light outdoor action.

So what is the point behind this model? Well, it is a lifestyle watch. It offers a practical option for men who want to communicate the rugged and adventurous aspect of their personalities while taking care of business indoors. It tries to deliver the best of both worlds without having to get its hands covered in the grime and dirt of gritty outdoor activity. The good news is that, for the most part, it succeeds. With flying colors. Keep reading below.

Design: Mens’ indoor sports watch

True sports watch have rubber wristbands. Why? They can withstand the corroding power of sea spray and salt water. The Blue Angels Skyhawk A-T has a metal face and mostly-metal construction. It has the look of a rugged watch and gives the information you’d expect from a typical men’s sport swatch but it does so from the comfort of your office cubicle or home breakfast dining nook. Again, we’re talking primarily fashion accessorizing here.

With the right understanding of this watch’s purpose in mind, we can happily report that this timepiece achieves its goal. You get to remind people of your outdoor priorities and the active aspect of your personality within a wide range of indoor settings. In fact, this time piece is designed in such a way that you can look good whether you are at a boardroom or at home or at a coffee shop.

Timepiece Movement

This unit has an analog display with three digital read outs. This mix of features looks great and prevents the watch from becoming overbearing or awkward. The displays are spaced out well enough that you don’t feel you’re being blasted by a huge firehose of data. To top it all of, this unit uses Japanese quartz movement with all its legendary efficiency.

Special Features: Eco-drive

Personally, the most compelling feature of this men’s indoor sportswear unit is its eco-drive battery system. The Blue Angels Skyhawk A-T frees you from the very common hassle of having to wind your watch or take the back apart so you can put in a fresh battery. You can say good-bye to all that unnecessary hassle with the Skyhawk A-T. It is exactly this easy peace of mind and assurance that makes this watch such a great package.

Looking rugged, adventurous, and active doesn’t have to involve getting a Hawaiian tan or posting an obnoxious amount of fishing pictures on Facebook. This Citizen Men’s watch gives you the right look at the right places. Talk about an effective accessory piece.
