I love this watch. The Eco Drive movement is incredibly accurate. The case is right in the Goldielocks zone and feels great on the wrist. The size and style make this watch very versatile. The sapphire crystal and ISO certification were big selling points for me. As someone who is not currently a diver, it’s definitely making me dive-curious. Great watch!
For the price point, this is a very nice watch and truly competes with much higher-end options. The Citizen Promaster Dive watch is running on the Eco-Drive E168 caliber quartz movement, which is accurate to about plus or minus 15 seconds a month, though many users report higher real-world accuracy, and is universally celebrated among watch enthusiasts as a robust “set and forget” workhorse, capable of withstanding extreme conditions while maintaining exceptional timekeeping. With 200m water resistance, sapphire crystal, a unidirectional “clicky” bezel, excellent lume, 5-year warranty and powered by eco-drive. What more could you ask for? You're getting a lot of watch for the price, plus I think it’s incredibly comfortable to wear and keeps better time than an automatic, and its ISO certified. While many fashion watches feature dive-style aesthetics, the ISO certification is the dividing line that separates a dive-inspired watch from an actual life-saving piece of diving gear. Because these standards are strict, Citizen restricts the term "diver's watch" exclusively to models that comply with this regulation This watch can perform many roles, it could be your knockaround weekend watch, a boating watch, or pretty much anywhere since it balances aesthetics and functionality, especially since you don't have to worry about batteries or winding it up or losing time or resetting the date thanks to that wonderful eco-drive. My very minor complaints are the bracelet has a little more wiggle room than I personally like but you can find other bracelets online made specifically for Citizen Promaster Diver. I'm not a fan of the pin and collar system for the links, but once you get it sized its not an issue, especially since you have the tool-less micro adjust clasp. The fact that this watch is obtainable new from Citizen for under $400 makes it an outstanding choice.
The watch is beautiful! It’s the perfect present for my soon to be husband I’ll be gifting him on our wedding day! If I had to say one negative it would be, citizen gave the option to leave a note, which I thought would be on like a small card in the box like Amazon does when you leave notes with gifts. Instead, the “note” was just left on the receipt, which I obviously wouldn’t plan on giving to the person the gift was intended for so thought that was an odd place to put it.
The 40mm case size is perfect and the quality and finish is excellent. The appearance of the face is straightforward and uncluttered - a classic look. Accuracy is surprisingly great even by quartz standards. You get all the advantages of Citizen's other divers in a much more wearable size.
Excellent finish. Very comfortable to wear and looks amazing on wrist. Highly recommended.
Excellent in service--watchband length, prompt delivery, as advertised, wonderful timekeeper!
This was a Christmas present for my husband. He absolutely loves it. The watch looks really nice on his arm. The luminous hands are a big plus. His last 2 watches ended up with scratched crystals, so this one is a huge upgrade with the scratch free sapphire crystal.
Can't say enough good things about this watch. The thing that impresses me most is the accuracy and consistency. I have not had to reset the time since I got this a week ago. If you want a no-nonsense watch that looks great, I'm serious, I get a lot of compliments on the daily, get this one.
I’m so happy witt my watch is confort and nice view in the night
Beautiful watch. Gift for son in law. Nice to see a watch with 41mm case. Not everyone wears 44-46mm.
