Sharp, everyday watch that looks good casual or dressy.
A very solid purchase for an extraordinary timepiece, that immediately earned my affection. I've worn many makes & models on my wrist, but this is my first time owning a Citizens timepiece. My only regret would be why didn't I do this sooner? What a handsome piece of jewelry this is, and I love every detail that Citizens designed into my all-stainless steel, Promaster Diver! What's more, aside from all the attention it commands, I like the fact that Citizens Watch is a progressive company that is concerned about our planet. With equipping my timepiece with their signature EcoDrive system, my watch will always keep time by utilizing Solar (light) energy to keep the battery fully charged, meaning it's a one and done for life. One battery for the life of my watch, means reducing landfill and more specifically hazmat waste. This is my jam too, as for many years I've adopted the philosophy that it's my responsibility as a good steward of Planet Earth, to adapt and find ways to lower my carbon footprint. I am committed to this program, not just to combat climate change and help reduce the man-made portion and cause of global warming, but to aid in the preservation of our planet's natural resources for future generations. This is why I ride my all-terrain bike everywhere, and anytime I can. When I have to drive somewhere, my auto is a hybrid. Yes, I know I haven't made the full commitment to a full-electric mode of transportation as my Honda is only half-correct, but it's a start! I strongly feel that with this amazing watch purchase I've made, and by choosing Citizens, with EcoDrive, I've realized my timepiece choice is in sync with my goals to do what I can to be a good steward to our planet, during my short stay here. Kudos to Citizens Watch, for their commitment and attention to precision & quality craftsmanship, that so obviously goes into every watch they create, but also for being an industry leader for producing precision handsome eco-friendly timepiece choices for everyone to discover. .
The watch is everything Citizen says it is, it looks great, I love the eco-drive battery. This is my second watch, I loved the first one so much after it went missing, I had to get another.
I really did not need this watch since I have three other Citizen watches but I liked the design and color as depicted on the Citizen website. After receiving the watch, the actual blue color is much closer to a deep navy blue rather than the lighter blue shown on the website. Although disappointed in the actual color I decided to keep the watch due to the overall look and quality. If you are expecting this watch to arrive with a “brighter “ blue color you will be disappointed. This is the reason for the 4 star rating.
