CitizenEco-Drive Promaster Diver Mens Watch

As a watch guy, I am impressed with this daily driver. I think of it as a daily stunt-double for my expensive, Tudor Pelagos dive watch (which costs over 10x more). I prefer the look, feel, and weight of titanium. The lightweight nature and relatively thin presence is ideal as a daily; I even sleep in this watch. The movement is accurate. The look of this watch is clean. The lume is bright. The watch can be dressed up or dressed down… from yardwork to the boardroom. Mine has yet to scratch, although I did add a film cover to the crystal. The Eco-Drive solar charging is incredible technology. 200m of water resistance is comparable (or better) than others, such as Seiko (which I also love). What else can I say. This Citizen Promaster diver in super titanium is a Go Anywhere Do Anything (GADA) watch.

Citizen is my favorite brand. I live the eco drive technology and the super titanium. Great looking watch, the glow in the dark is great as well. Super light weight and durable

High Quality and my husband wears this watch daily. It’s casual or fits for a fancier occasion as well. Love the look of this watch!

Man, I love this watch so much. The matte Titanium is stunning. The lume is fantastic. The accuracy is unmatched imo especially being a solar watch (the best solar tech as well). Very very nice. I wish the hour features (including the hands) were a bit more interesting. They’re flat with no change in pitch and extremely angular. But tbh it helps with clarity in the dark and for this price point can’t really beat it. It scratches fairly easily, so be careful. Although it still looks good after being scratched, unlike stainless. The seconds movement is not 100% accurate to the etching but I doubt anyone cares since it’s so accurate. It’s a non issue for me. Easily the nicest watch I’ve ever owned.

Very nice watch, very happy with purchase.

It took me a long time to figure out just what I wanted in a nice watch. I ended up here with this Citizen watch (the one with a dark blue face and a red sweeping second-hand) and I'm very happy with it. I wanted a watch with an actual functioning rotating bezel. (I use my bezel usually at least 4 times a day for a multitude of purposes.) Check. I wanted nice looking metal bracelet. Check. I wanted the accuracy of a quartz movement. I don't get why I should want an automatic movement when I would have to keep adjusting the watch every few days to keep it accurate. I couldn't find a quartz movement in a Seiko brand watch (with a bezel) so I'm glad I found Citizen watches. Check. It had to be decently waterproof. This one is rated to 200 meters. Check. I didn't want to spend a fortune for a watch. I found some Tag Heuer watches I liked (quartz movement with bezel) but they were around $2,000. Now I can appreciate how some guys want to proudly have a two grand watch on their wrist but that's not really my style. BTW, I was visiting a doctor the other day who had a watch that looked almost exactly like mine so much so that I had to comment on it. It turned out his watch was a Grand Seiko watch he bought years ago for six thousand bucks. So anyway, check again. I did want to own a respectable well known brand. Citizen has been making watches in Japan for a century. Check. And I wanted a beautiful watch. Check. Note: At the same time I bought this watch I also bought their titanium version. True the titanium is lighter, but I wasn't enamored of it. I actually preferred the heft of the regular steel bracelet. It feels more luxurious to me. So I returned the titanium watch. Yes, it's true the date window is too small to see easily. That seems to be the only negative comment I can make.

I bought this watch about 2 1/2 years ago. It was trouble-free until I noticed that the crystal “fogged” in high-humidity environments. This is not an optimal characteristic for a dive watch. Not to worry, however: the watch was covered by a 6-year warranty. So, I returned the watch to Citizen (at my expense) for evaluation and repair. I received no acknowledgment from Citizen that it had been received. Instead, I had to get on it website, and have an online “chat” with a representative who confirmed receipt and provided me with a repair number. Thereafter, I dutifully checked the website (using the repair number) almost daily for an update on my watch. For several days, the website advised that my watch was under evaluation. Eventually, the status page advised that an evaluation had been emailed to me with a cost-of-repair price. I checked my email and spam filter and found no email. And “cost” of repair? The watch was under warranty. So, I had another online chat with another customer service rep, who advised me that the watch had “moisture” in it. Right: that’s why I sent it to you. It’s a “dive” watch: it’s designed to withstand moisture. And, as an added bonus, I never subjected the watch to moisture (with the exception of one shower). I never wore it in the ocean or in a pool. I was told that the warranty only covered the movement and not water damage. (Consider that: the warranty does not cover the failure of a DIVE watch to withstand exposure to MOISTURE.) So, the cost of repair was my responsibility. I advised customer service that this was unacceptable, but all he offered was a reduction in the cost of repair (roughly 30% of what I paid for the watch to begin with, not including the $40 to ship it to Citizen in the first place). I asked the watch to be returned unrepaired. I’ll never buy a Citizen product again.

Boyfriend loves the watch but you can’t register it.
