Have you emailed Citizen?

I didn't but but you're right that should have been the first thing I did. Would you know the correct email to ask this question. Thank You

Volgens mij staat de dichtstbijzijnde mast ook voor UK in Frankfurt.

If it's a radio controlled watch it will do. There's a tower in Cumbria. Had another of their watches and it did.

Some of these Japanese only watches only work in Japan

Ah I see. If it does work, I couldn't recommend it enough.

I emailed Citizen. Thanks for the comment. I hope it works now 😊

Citizen got back to me, yes it's a multi band . I will work in Europe. Is the glass sapphire and are you happy with it. You recommend it why? Cheers

I actually sold it. Not because I didn't like/rate it. I had a Tsuki Yomi and the technology is what makes it great. The finish was fine and it had sapphire crystal yes.

I originally was thinking of a Seiko Astron GPS, 3 hand with Date.

But I looked at cheaper models like Citizen Atessa.

Seiko is about 1200euro

Citizen Atessa 700euro

What would you recommend I get , I like 38mm to 40mm.

Radio Controlled with lume

It will get the signal from Germany, DCF77.

I bought a Citizen signal amplifier for 25 euros, this way I can get a consistent reception at my home, I live in Southern Spain so it is very far from Frankfurt.

It has the H149, can receive DCF77 (Germany), besides US, JJY, China.

You won't have a problem with it.

You can also use the "DCF77 emulator" app and set it up from your phone.

That's how I set my E610 ones (JJY emulator app)
