Radio Time

As promised, I'm writing more about the new machine that rests on my wrist: Citizen Skyhawk AT Titanium. Here's how it looks:
It is pretty big, but feels relatively light due to its titanium case and bracelet. If you look closer at the picture, you will notice that the writing on the dial proudly announces that it is Citizen, Eco-Drive, water resistant 200m, and titanium; what is missing is the name of the series and model!
The little dial at the bottom shows the current mode of operation - its hand is controlled by the crown after it is pulled out to the first click position. The three dials at the top show (from left to right) battery level or currently selected radio transmitter, universal time, 24 hour time.
Leftmost LCD shows time zone for which hands are showing current time, rightmost LCD shows different pieces of data in different modes (in the picture: time in second time zone). LCD is equipped with orange backlight, available in time modes after pressing top button.
The watch can synchronize with radio transmitters in Colorado, Germany and Japan. So far I could check the reception of Colorado signal in two areas: Las Vegas, NV and Dayton, OH; in both cases there were no problems. I will be visiting Los Angeles area in June, so there will be one more test point for Colorado reception; it would be nice to visit Florida to do some testing, since that state is located very far from the transmitter. Doing tests in Japan and Europe would be nice, but will probably have to wait for a while.
Continuation of the test in the next post...
