This watch was really small for a man’s wrist. The watch casing and band looked more appropriate for woman’s wrist. Was highly disappointed and have returned the watch. :(
Love the color, the fit, the overall look -- and the eco-drive. But the packaging (it comes in an enormous plastic monstrosity which is at odds with the eco-drive's messaging) is so stupidly unnecessary.
Have purchased Promaster Dive Watches for 12+ years and have always been pleased with the looks and style. This watch's stunning orange face really sets the time piece apart from my previous partial red and solid black style Promaster watches. My only complaint is the durability of the rubber strap. They historically have only lasted 24-30 months and cost $40-60 to replace. After two replacements, I usually replace the watch which vastly outlasts the strap.
My only complaint is the cheap band. its thin, too long and the buckle is very cheap and it not a signed buckle. for 300 dollars on an ISO certified diver you need to finish it with a nicer more comfortable strap. I got a SRPD93 Seiko automatic they sell for much less and seem to go that extra mile on case finishing and a nicer strap thats signed. Yes the seiko is only 100 meter but its an auto and I paid 200 bucks new from an AD. I paid 300 bucks new from an AD for the citizen. Now im a huge fan of the echo drive and love the new colorway and ofcourse it keeps better time than an auto but that attention to detail is lacking. Dont take this review as bad im in love with the piece big time. Its worth the hype for sure and its a great size and comfortable on wrist. I would recommend it all day, Im just a dive watch collector and giving my honest opinion.
Great watch. Only negative is they removed the numbers from the band, looks plain. This is my 5th citizen, can’t beat the watch vs the price.
Much better than expected!!😎🔥👍🏻
I purchased a Citizen dive watch over 20 years ago, sent it in for battery replacement about 10 years back, it was fixed promptly and cheaply and continued to work unti recently. I sent it in again but because of the age of the watch, parts were no loner available. Citizen returned the watch along with apologies and a discount code that saved me $100 on my current purchase. Can't ask for better product value and excellent service response!!
This is my 2nd ProMaster Eco Drive and it's stunning. Love the orange dial! It's solar, so no battery, and any light source powers it. My other is a green with the rubber band. If I have a beef it's that Citizen eliminated the ProMaster stamp on the back of the watch and the band is thinner with no depth markings that my older ProMaster had. Overall, it's a super solid watch. Citizen should pony up on the stamp on the back of the watch and upgrade the runner band.
