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.
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!
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.
Got this as a gift. And being in the military. It’s a great all around watch in the field or out and about
Got mine today! Loved it! This watch is really remarkably beautiful in person! #Ideal_fit ⌚#Citizen_Eco_Drive_Promaster
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
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”....

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 had a one month ago, and i just like this beautyful watch!!!
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!
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.
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,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.
This watch has a classic and updated look - very nice. I like that it is lighter than some of the automatic watches I have. It keeps great time.
I just received the watch today, 9-15-23. Here is what I hope is some helpful information: -It came in the scuba tank, not the Pelican-type box as shown. -It is actually quite a bit lighter than I expected. -The band does not have the dive tables on it. Outstanding, even though I dive. -I have a 7 1/2” wrist and there is plenty of room with the band. It’s a little stiff, but not terribly so. -The bezel, chapter ring, and seconds hand are in perfect alignment. -I’ve only ever had dive watches with 120 clicks on the bezel. I’m actually liking the 60 clicks. Just a smidge of back play, but no more, and probably less than, another very popular Japanese watch maker, with watches that cost twice as much. I know, because I have several of them. -The anti-reflective coating on the crystal works very well. -I don’t find the bezel as slippery as some others do. -The bezel has a slight ridge along the outside circumference. This will help minimize scratches to both the bezel insert and the crystal. -I have complete confidence in the Eco-Drive, having owned a Ray Mears PMT for several years. Wonderfully accurate and trouble-free. -It might not have the cachet some other dive watches do, but it is a handsome watch, has everything a dive/tool watch needs, and is extremely practical. This is a definite sleeper, and I’m very happy I purchased it.
i have always had a Citizen Watch. When this one came out several years ago I had to have one. And I have been happy with it from day one. Waterproof and no batteries. Also very rugged. Having been in construction for 30+ years can wear out a watch in no time. But, not this one.
I be had this watch Best watch I’ve ever owned would highly recommend
Great looking watch. I love it and have gotten quite a few compliments on it.

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.
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 love this watch! I like the look, the solar charging is a great feature. Recommend it!!
