I normally wear rubber strap watches since I am in and out of water any other day (snorkeling, beach, spearfishing, pool) and after having this model for a little longer than a year, I can say I love it! Comfortable, resistant and reliable the watch looks great on the wrist. I even stopped wearing some of my other watches.get plenty of compliments and people is surprised to see its a citizen. Never bother about winding (sun and artificial light do this for me (ecodrive) the Luminescent hands and marker last forever and with a depth of 200 m no concerns when going deep dives. The rubber they selected for strap never smells ( awesome) and the rose gold tone make it such a beautiful eye catching time piece. You’ll love it.
I wanted a dive watch that had a unique color scheme, but wasn’t ostentatious. This watch is beautiful in person. Great Citizen quality, as always.
Love the watch, always had the silver and black. Just wanted a gold one . Have owned a dive watch from Citizen for 50 years.
I recently purchased this watch from a major retailer for myself. I've been wearing a Samsung watch for the past few years and will never give it up but was looking for an analog style watch to purchase. After seeing advertisements for Citizen watches I purchased the promaster watch in gold and black. (bn0163-00h) This is a fantastic looking watch that is well designed and I'm sure will be a big seller. When I purchased the watch I knew it only had a 44mm wide case and I generally don't purchase cases that small. It's too bad Citizen doesn't get away from the old school small faces and go with larger case size in 2023. The only thing that could make this watch a home run would be a larger case.
I bought the black and silver version of this watch a number of years ago. It has been a fantastic watch. Keeps very accurate time. It's off a couple of seconds a month. It has help up snorkeling and general use. Still looks new. I love the new colors. I have so many watches though that I can't seem to pull the trigger on more watches.
I needed a nice thank you gift for someone that helped me at my work. Being a professional pilot for over 50 years I am kind of a watch nut. Watches that range from Rolex to Casio. I have owned a Citizen Eco Dive for many years. The watch has been 100% bulletproof. Zero maintenance has been required. It just keeps running, and I am hard on watches. So I thought what a better gift that another Citizen Eco Dive. That watch came in a very cool presentation case that resembles a scuba dive tank. The watch came with the gray band that I thought looks great. The watch itself is very attractive. The face is very beautiful. The bezel is nice. But, most of all the person receiving the gift was very happy with it. I hope it brings him many many decades of continuous good use.
I am not happy with the watch band. Rose gold and grey. No!
I really like the looks and functionality of this watch. The date indicator is a bit on the small side but that is offset by the great illumination provided by the hour markers and hands and the fact that it’s solar powered means not having to deal with batteries, another plus.

I thought the watch came with a black band but it arrived with a med gray band. Cust Service and parts said they do not have a black band to fit my watch. I’d like to exchange it for the model with the dark blue bezel and black band.
The photos did not represent the physical watch unfortunately and the gray band and face with gold does not work. Citizen itself is a good product. I got the silver and black for a friend and they loved it. Looks nice. I really tried to like the color combo, but couldn't settle.

I own two Promaster Drive watches and decided to buy one for my brother who is graduating college. I bought this one because I thought it would be a conversation starter at his new job. It’s flashy without being gaudy. He is graduating with a degree in computer science so he was really interested in the eco drive aspect. I was worried he wouldn’t wear it because he is practically glued to his fitness watch but he put it on and hasn’t taken it off yet.
The look and feel of this watch is excellent. I love it
