First let me say this is my first watch of this style. I own a few other of Citizens bigger more elegant watches and wanted one of these for when I am being active, out on a hike or something. My biggest complaint is that the watch needs a magnification window over the date, or the date just needs to be a bit bigger. I mean this is meant to be an active watch with the option to dive with. If I am under water or on a hike I want to be able to look at my watch very quickly and get whatever information I am looking for... The watch band feels alright. It probably needs to be broke in a bit. I am used to wearing Citizen clasp bands that are on their heavier watches that out of the box conform really nice to your arm usually. The face could be a bit bigger as well for my taste. I am a bigger guy, 6’3” 210 lbs so I am sure it is just right if your a bit smaller of a person. Overall I am keeping it because on sale it was right at $200 and it’s the only style watch I now own of this kind and it’s handy when I don’t want to wear a $500-$1000 watch on a hike or a swim. Also it seems like more of a pain at this point to go they the whole return process when simply put. “It will do”....

Unboxing this was very appealing, to include the case it came in, which looked like a helium tank. Unfortunately the turn dial to change the time and date was stuck. Once I finally got it unstuck the dial is loose. Hopefully in the future this can be resolved.
Very comfortable,keeps time perfectly, see time clearly in the dark with well lit arms and time dots. Face color matches band, adding to the rich look of the watch. I am very satisfied with my purchase and recommend highly.
Best watch I've owned to date. Incredibly reliable, tough and very useful. I love the bezel clicks, very high quality. The lum is fantastic, it literally lasts all night long. I glance at it throughout/early morning and can clearly tell the time with just the lum. I always fin myself choosing this as a daily. The color is gorgeous in the sunlight. For the price, this is one of the highest values you will find. I find it wears small for a 44mm ( I have a 6.5" wrist) and it is extremely comfortable. I use the timer on the bezel for just about everything including baking lol
Very comfortable synth strap on a stylish and easy to read watch face. I have taken it snorkeling shortly after purchase and it held up well. Easy to read dial face. This is my 5th eco drive watch from citizen. I have a 6.5 inch wrist and this watch fits perfectly fine. Perfectly acceptable size for even smaller wrists. I have seen some model of dive watch with dive times on the strap. This one is a plain blue strap. If youre looking for your first dive watch, look no further.
I bought the watch after some time of consideration and reading reviews on Amazon. It is on my wrist right now as I'm typing this review.I wasn't disappointed indeed. The watch turn out to be great, love the lume and it's thinner than i expected. Although it didn't have Decompression units on the strap. I really appreciated the package and how Citizen employees packed it with air pillows for better security, certainly a big plus for me. Overall, I do recommend this model for dive watch enthusiasts out there, a really robust and charming masterpiece!
I have had a one month ago, and i just like this beautyful watch!!!
I have been lucky enough to have owned a load of different watches over the years, but in my opinion this Promaster Diver (BN0151-09L) is a cut above them all. Such a clear face and as far as it's blue lume goes, there's nothing out there to beat it. Perfect time keeping too. If there was one thing I could change it would be the bezel insert, I would love to get a "Pepsi" (Blue and Red) version for it. Also, it's a pity you can not buy the stainless steel bracelet that comes with the BJ7128-59G and the BN0150-61E.
I have the Stainless Steel Band version of this lovely watch, and I have had Similar divers type watches in the past and can say I love the design of the watch, especially the wind/time change pull out pin. I decided to purchase the Black version as this looks more Professional and resembles a divers watch. Enjoy Ade
Got mine today! Loved it! This watch is really remarkably beautiful in person! #Ideal_fit ⌚#Citizen_Eco_Drive_Promaster
Got this as a gift. And being in the military. It’s a great all around watch in the field or out and about
My first diver‘s watch. Always wanted a watch that was actually waterproof, kept the correct time, and never needs a battery. Would like to see the option of a different band so it can be worn as a semi dress watch. Love it!
I have had it 6 months or so now. Great looks. Great functionality. Live on the coast so lots of water exposure with zero issues. Typical Citizen product... Just great.
Did a lot of research before this purchase. I have quite a few watches, but wanted a sporty casual everyday watch that'd look good with a polo or a tshirt. The navy blue is fantastic. Any and all graphics pop from the face. I wish this Diver had the same day/date as the automatic version of the watch (at 3) as this one is so small it's nearly unreadable. Function has been terrific. Strap breaks in nicely. The face is a perfect size. Not too big but substantial enough to draw attention. Well worth the MSRP.
This is just a beautiful watch. The blue color combination and size (not too large) is striking without overkill. Thank you.
I bought this for my husband for our 40th Anniversary. This is, I think, his 4th one of this watch, previous ones are black. They ALL STILL WORK!! He is just rough on them and look worn after several years… wears every day and we have a nursery/garden center, so it’s in harsh elements too. But such a great watch!!! He loves them!!! I highly recommend 😊
I love the watch band with the wave ripples on each side of the face and how the band color blue matches the face. The lumen face dial stays bright enough in the dark to read time easily. Time and date are easily set. The best part is being powered by light; no batteries needed! Flawless watch design for a great price. I highly recommend
Very comfortable,keeps time perfectly, see time clearly in the dark with well lit arms and time dots. Face color matches band, adding to the rich look of the watch. I am very satisfied with my purchase and recommend highly.
I love this watch! I like the look, the solar charging is a great feature. Recommend it!!
Watch has easy to set date and time. The blue face matches the watchband, making the already smartly designed watch look very high end. The illuminated numbers on the face of the watch make viewing the time in the dark easy. I am very satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend.
I was look for a good solid all around watch. This watch fits the requirement and is very smart looking as well. A good value and purchase for an active life style.
