This watch is a Sherman tank. I'm not a diver of any sort. I wear this watch while I perform labor, gardening labor. I'm usually with a shovel or hose, and plants. I'm digging and then using a hose. I'm always being surrounded by water, typically 3 times a week, 12 months out of the year. This watch holds up very well and is very strong. I have had the same watch before. I use it until something falls apart with my daily hand-wringing. That may take +/-15 years with me. This watch has proven very reliable and I look forward to putting it on everyday. Not having to worry about a battery makes life even nicer. This watch is no-nonsense and has been worth the money.
Great quality watch that water resistance and never loses battery
I love the watch, I bought it for the style, the reliability, and the eco drive. The watch looks really nice to nice to be a everyday watch for me.
First watch Citizen Promaster Diver.... The strap came blemised. I called Citizen and made them aware of the problem and that I was unsatisfied with my purchase. Citizen was GREAT! They provided a return shipping label and I sent the watch back. I received an unblemished replacement QUICK with 2nd day air shipping! I AM COMPLETELY SATISFIED and lovey watch! Thank you Citizen.
Great service, prompt delivery. Awesome beach/dive watch!
I’ve had good luck with my Promaster Diver. It gets lots of compliments. I require reliability in a time piece and I appreciate the elegance of the Eco-Drive system. I know that if I were to be abducted by Extraterrestrials from the Pleiades they could take me anywhere and I would still be able to keep track of what time it is on Earth. This is a serious consideration.
For far less than you would spend on a "Gucci" dive watch to impress your friends you can have one that will keep time as good or better and you will wear every day without worrying about it getting scuffed. Tough, good illumination, sits on the wrist nice and the ecodrive keeps it running. A few scratches reminds you of that dive trip or worksite.
I have wanted an Eco-Drive for several years. Bought myself one in blue. I am a diver. Have taken it diving over two dozen times in the past three or four months. Not one single issue with the watch. Pleased beyond all expectations. I did swap out the rubber strap for a Nato strap. Wears far more comfortably now. Two weeks after I bought myself one, I bought the black one for my son as a gift for his promotion to E-6. He absolutely loves his. Hot tip: wait for Amazon Prime Day or other sales events to order one. I paid 150 for each. Cannot go wrong on that deal! Hence why I purchased another. Too good to pass up! Only gripe,like stated above, is the date window not being magnified. Other than that, a solid watch at a phenomenal price point.
