I be had this watch Best watch I’ve ever owned would highly recommend
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 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.
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.
