Why? Do you have one or just your opinion from the picture?
I'm interested in the watch and would like to know if the strap is junk.

Most of the reviews compliment the leather strap. For example, "great color and texture" or "the brown band looks great". A couple reviews recommend using leather conditioner on it. I already have two Citizen Eco-Drives with nice leather straps, but one I swapped because it was an alligator style. Leather straps are so easy to change.

I bought the watch and returned it. The band is too stiff. I loved the face and in retrospect should have gotten a different strap.

That is how leather bands usually are. They need some break in time.

This has a quartz movement so keeps accurate time. By comparison, automatic watches like the Seiko 5 can vary up to 10-15 seconds per day. The Eco-Drive is powered by light and when fully charged can run up to six months in darkness. The capacitor battery inside lasts up to 10+ years.

My Eco-Drive is a little more than 10 years old. I inadvertently let the battery get to low charge and second hand would only move every 2 seconds. Via Citizen's web site, I contacted them and in the process on explaining that I should put the watch in sunlight for a few hours to recharge the battery, they also informed me that the battery might never need replacement (sounds hard to believe). Regardless, I have elsewhere seen that 20-years of service is not a rarity. All in all, I don't know where the truth lies, but I do know mine keeps excellent time & there is no expense/trouble in having a battery change every 1-2 years or so. Eco-Drive is a no-brainer.

Real talk, do you know of a comparable watch at this price that isn't mineral?

I bought a Victorinox for ~$80 that has sapphire crystal. The listing says mineral, prod desc says sapphire, but my case back clearly says sapphire crystal

A solar-powered chronograph with sapphire is virtually impossible to find at this price. Here is a Tissot Swiss quartz on sale for 143.50. I have it in a different color and paid $100 more. It is noticeably bigger and not solar powered.

Maybe because it's actually leather, compared to the Walmart watches you've been wearing?

Wearing that watch as I type this. It's a beautiful piece
