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.
Overall the watch is good quality. The combination of orange and blue is a good match. I gave 3 stars due to one observation, the eco drive logo at the case back is gone and was replaced with simple markings of serial numbers. This makes the watch look cheap.
This is a nice watch. I was surprised at how light it feels on my wrist. The band looks good but is uncomfortable and had to go.
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.
Gorgeous face. Same Promaster quality. Zero complaints.
I recently bought the new 41mm Promaster Diver, blue dial with metal bracelet, and I’m really liking it. Then this orange dial 44mm caught my eye, so I had to order one. It looks awesome in my opinion. The orange sunburst dial, dark blue bezel, and brushed stainless steel case make for a striking combination. With Eco-drive and outstanding accuracy, both of these watches punch well above their price class. They are well worth owning.
Ive been wearing citizen watches since my dad bought me my first one 25 years ago. Same great watches today as back then. Beautiful and functional design at a reasonable price. Great starter watches. Everyone wears smart watches these days. Its become very cringe. They look like an army of cyborg clones of each other . I wear a screen-less whoop on one wrist to track my health and a classy citizen watch my other. That way always on time and looking suave when i show up. Thanks citizen. Ill be buying my son a citizen for his first real watch too.
