A bargain hunter’s favorite time of the year is upon us, as online retailers are dropping big markdowns all week. There's Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days once again with great discounts on outdoor gear, power tools, and more, and this year, Walmart has joined the conversation with its own giant sale. While Amazon is known for its deals on watches, one of the best can be found at Walmart—a stunning Citizen chronograph pilot's watch that's nearly $350 off and becoming one of the retailer's bestsellers.
Citizen’s Eco-Drive Blue Angels World Chronograph A-T Watch is now on sale at Walmart for $382—47% off of the retail price of $725. This stunning pilot’s watch gets stellar reviews, with over 200 happy customers giving it five-star ratings, commenting that the "quality is next to none” and its "elegant" aesthetic is a massive compliment generator.
Watch lovers know that Citizen consistently churns out high-quality timepieces at fantastic prices that offer tons of functionality. One of its most stunning releases is this Eco-Drive world timer chronograph pilot’s watch made in conjunction with the U.S. Navy’s Blue Angels flight demonstration squadron. The stainless steel watch includes the flight team’s insignia on the case back, and it's packed with technology like atomic time for 26 international cities for radio-controlled accuracy over five time zones, 1/20-second chronograph up to 60 minutes, perpetual calendar, 12/24 hour time, power reserve indicator, and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. One of the best features of the handsome timepiece is never having to replace the battery—it runs on Citizen’s vaunted Eco-Drive tech that uses any type of light (even artificial) to continuously power the watch.
Satisfied shoppers universally praise this Citizen watch, commenting on its usefulness, quality, and ease of use. “This is an excellent and reliable everyday piece that sees a lot of wrist time,” one shopper said. Another shopper agreed, saying, "I've never been so happy purchasing a watch before." Another went as far as calling it “the most beautiful watch in its category."
Other customers were glad about the appearance and size of the watch. “Perfect size, good heft but not heavy,” a shopper said. “Pictures don't do it justice—I get a lot of compliments on it.” Another echoed that, saying, “Flawless..it gets a lot of compliments from friends and family.”
If you’re looking for a new watch to add to your collection, or just want to dip your toe into horology without spending big bucks, this Citizen pilot’s watch should be your next purchase. Not only is it stunning to look at and packed with so many useful features, but it’s also reduced by an amazing $340. At that great price, expect it to fly off the shelves this week, so lock one down for yourself before it’s too late.
