I chose the Promaster Tough primarily for the proven reliability and convenience of the Eco-Drive power source. I wanted a tough good looking watch for everyday wear. The sapphire crystal and solid body make this watch tough enough to wear during all activities. The only negative reviews I have are the recessed date window that makes the date almost impossible to see. The luminescent quality of the watch hands is not great as the glow of the hands does not last long in a dark environment. overall I think the Promaster Tough is a good watch for everyday wear.
beautiful, looks and feels great.No problem with the strap.
I was so happy with the green Promaster Tough, that I purchased the other two variations in order to mix and match. Warning: The stainless steel bracelet uses a different spring bar than the ballistic fabric strap. You can purchase both the stainless bracelet and specific spring bars directly from Citizen, if you want to dress up the versions with the fabric strap. The middle part of the spring bar is about 1mm shorter, in order to install the stainless bracelet with the shoulders, onto the lugs. I'm really happy with the design aesthetic and the finish quality and toughness of these watches. The sapphire crystal on my older Citizen has been scratch free for almost a decade.
