- Promaster eco-drive diver “ecozilla” is for sure a fun diver to try out. Sometimes you just need a big diver in your life I guess. This one doesn’t disappoint if your looking for unique style. Looking forward to wearing and sharing this beast with some other channels.
Being too cool and being too bulky is why we all love this badass watch....quality, band never wears out, bad to the bone. Get one and join the family...you will not be dissapointed!
@Armando Sturzenegger ....I got a great deal ....155.oo....great watch...
One of the Best diver ever
Sounds silly but I'm buying one because of the case back. I love the divers bell..
Nice alternative to a G-Shock Steel, if you like you're watches big but simple.
The adaptors are amazing. I have a heavy duty NATO on mine with adaptors. It only feels top heavy if the strap is too loose. Once I snug it down a bit, it feels great. Wear yours in good health!
Ridiculously accurate, and has a thick (5 or 6 mm) crystal.
"cult following"? well, people love citizen's high quality and high affordability, I would say rolex and other "swiss" brands are cults, everyone agrees that swiss are high quality, BUT the parts are sourced from unknown places (mist likely china) and are assembled in Switzerland, then if you evaluate rolex from the cost of manufacturing perspective and ignore the brand name on them, you'd see they fall within $150-250, but they cost $5-8k. and ppl are crazy about them, tell me more about cult following
Best affordable big diver
Just ordered one of these from Amazon-EU 2 days ago, due for delivery tomorrow. Got a great deal on it for £200 inc VAT. I'm attracted to the big/bold nature of it. My train of thought is, if I like it and can cope with the looks and feel - I'll then upgrade to the BN7020-09E. This is an exercise to see if I like it on. I know it's large and deep, but I also owned the Rangeman 1000 too, and that isn't small. My only worry is I like a loose fit, so it will certain spin around - as I prefer watches to sit on the bend at my hand/wrist. Gr8 vid as always...
This watch would be AWFUL if loosely attached to the wrist and riding up from the top.of the hand/spinning round all the time. It's a big, heavy and very top heavy watch.
Wait until you get the adapters and put it on a bracelet :)). It will be very heavy, but I guarantee you will not want to take it off again. I have 2 of these, one it's the original version with an OEM stainless steel bracelet from Citizen, while the other is like the one you have but with a pair of Suppa adapters and their titanium bracelet (300$ affair by the way, the adapters and the bracelet). Even with the titanium bracelet it weighs about 260g. It's a fun watch, enjoy it :D.
Without adapters no aftermarket braclet will fit ?
What a cool ashtray!
give this man a prize!
Just sold mine. It's a beast. My first diver ever. Once you get the adapters it's nice on rubber straps but 24 inches is hard to source. 22 not so bad. Enjoy.
Have you bought you another one, and do you you miss yours, how come you sold it?
Damn its a beast watch!!!! After watch this review i alrwady order mine on amazon❤citizen🔥
I have a ecozilla in my rotation and love it as i have an 8.5 inch wrist. I have the adapters and use 24 mm nato straps. It gets more comments than most watches will always stay in my collection. I also bought a 6$ led light that i sit on top every few months so the eco drive is always charged.
Bill I use a big ball of flame in the sky called the sun, works really well and was free.
This watch is still shown on Citizen’s website.
I have one on right now and love it to death. Hope to get some SUPPA lugs one of these days so I can get more strap options!
I love this watch.
Bought zuppa adapters and a 6 mm thick steel band. Looks fantastic
You still like wearing your Eco zilla or moved onto something else
Just ordered mine lume sold me
Jomashop has it on sale at $193 right now, I had the black version and it is a Hockey Puck! Very top heavy even with The adapters and a nato
Flipped the thing!
Just paid 329.00+tax
Just paid a near similar priceof $329 for a Ecozilla off Jomas too!
It blows that monster away
If the lume lasted as long as Lumibrite, this would be a no-brainer!
I have a Citizen Eco Drive Promaster Diver BN0100-51E, very underrated watch. Lume is not a bright but lasts longer that my Orange Monster gen 2.
Great video.
It's a freaking beast
these are such cool pieces
i love your videos because turn off the lights and i can see de lum of the watch.
I have never tried this on, but I am guessing it would be like strapping a ashtray to your wrist
what a beautiful watch
The lume is impressive , though.
To be honest, 48 mm just isn’t that big anymore. Now that Rangeman in the background is a big freaking watch, I believe that one is 62mm in diameter. That’s a cool watch too.
Just bought one but crown is on the right ? Anyone explain why this is seems authentic date turns manually but not auto but keeps good time any info please
How can i find a buckle like that one? No idea what to search for. Nothing comes up on "diver buckle" "long buckle" "dual buckle" "ecozilla buckle" "heavy duty buckle" etc.... What does one call that buckle ?
I have mine on a heavy engineer style bracelet. I am sure it weighs a half pound, but it feels great.
Seriously speaking. Side profile, it looks like a flying saucer I saw a few months ago.
She is puurrty🤩
I'm a little late to the 🥳 party..just ordered one today!!
Which spring bar tool is in the background in this video? Great review, by the way!
So Rob, do you think you will wear this hockey puck? It seems like a jock accept for a serious deep diver, which none of us are.
Yes I intend to wear and share. Often? No probably not, but it’s really cool.
You don’t need to know what the date is when you’re diving …most of us rotate our watches, and we’re having to tell the watch what the date is every time we put the watch on, and then we’re having to unscrew the watch, which is wear & tear on the threads and the gasket, so it’s useless and messes up the symmetry of the indices.
Really nice watch. Min stopped holding charge in the reserve battery. Anyone know if a regular person can change it? I would think the gasket needs to be replaced as well
I just got mine and the second hand doesn’t hit the markers at all , can that be fixed ?
I know there are lots of fans of this beast of a watch, but wonder if the Seiko Solar Tuna is a better proposition considering one doesn't need to get adapters for the lugs to be able to mount the head on different straps. Both have solar movements, are fairly close in price on the grey market, and are exclusively styled for underwater operations. The Citizen goes a little deeper (300 meters), but I've wondered why there is such a giant bezel and even more case surrounding a relatively small dial. The bezel is easier to grip on the Solar Tuna, it's way thinner, and the lume is the equal and maybe a touch better than the Citizen. Both wear like hockey pucks on the wrist, which is a look some enthusiasts like. To me, the Ecozilla is an interesting design that evokes a love-it-or-hate-it response from most. It is a very masculine watch.
I have to agree that I think the Seiko Solar Tuna is a better option. Don't get me wrong-- this watch looks like an absolute tool, but the Seiko Solar Tuna is much lighter due to the plastic shroud (I believe the watch weighs around 90g with the factory rubber strap) and is a lot thinner too (around 12mm height). I own the Seiko SNE498 and it is a joy to wear. It might be because I prefer the look of the Tunas vs the Ecozilla and Autozilla. However, I really do not like having the top-heavy feel when I wear watches, and the Marinemaster Quartz Tuna I used to own definitely had that feeling as does this Ecozilla. Plus the adapters for this Ecozilla make the lug to lug distance even more massive. This is definitely a watch for bigger wrists.
This is an awesome watch! Just too big for my wrist :( Have you seen the Autozilla?
Lol jees. You went to the 4th to last hole T_T. I max out and the 5th hole near the END of the strap for a snug loose-ish fit.
Its on Amazon for $371.00 and at Jomashop for 309.00 both grey market, no warranty from Citizen.
How much . That cool diver watch
Cool watch... I have one. I think the plastic strap is very hard. The material is hard. What do you think???
Is the strap silicon
Hi rob. Great videos!! What watch is in the left background? Black military? I like........ Rich
Looks like the newest black G-Shock Rangeman
This is not a piece of jewlery. It's a real divers watch. If you wear it around the house, don't bother complaining about the size.
Always a fascinating watch for me, just too big
is this watch reliable?
Yes from what I read.
Thanks again for another great review… BTW, your strap on your watch is way too tight. You should be able to stick two fingers under your watch when it’s buckled, you’ve got to be cutting the blood off to your hand…you tighten them up the same way on every single video…too tight stretches the bracelet and too loose stretches the bracelet.
Why not the autozilla?
Random says, "there are a few variants of this". LOL. I'm so over, "variants"
Is that there Monster clone? Not sure that I like it so much, but haven’t seen it in person.
This one is also discontinued. I think there are just a lot left due to the titanium being more popular
The Ecozilla was never discontinued in the stainless steel. Only the T was discontinued.
Still looks small for such a large case, the bezel to dial ratio is way off, mostly the reason I prefer wearing my Darth Tuna over my Autozilla, Seiko nailed the proportions!
IT IS A TOOL WATCH, NOT A DRESS WATCH!!
Stratch magnet
Are all of these solar or?
All "eco drive" models are powered by light. I have one and it's bitchin. Has a crazy power reserve too, a couple weeks I believe!? I was always a Seiko guy but Citizen is currently my jam
@@j.b.1807 good to know thx..
I'm not convinced.
I prefer the Seiko Monster.
Monster is a chimp compared to this beast
I love the look of this watch, seriously. However, why build a tank like this and then give it only a 300M depth rating? It's like what hot-rodders would call a "boulevard bluff"- all show & no go.
Any pedestrian diver is rated at 300 meters. This looks like it should be a 1000 meter watch. Why isn't it, Citizen?
Autozilla :)
@@MrBellerophon Thanks!! I looked it up, wasn't aware of it. I likee!! I prefer bigger watches, so it's a winner in my book. At @ $800, it's also much cheaper than the Oris Prodiver (the other 49mm 1,000M diver)
@@jimgd4 I agree! Good luck if you decide to go for it :)
Nice! What’s that Seiko?

Jacek K apologies. It’s so obvious 🤦🏼♂️

not a fan of this watch. the only reason why it is so big is to make it tough.
if toughness is what you are looking for then g-shock is the unbeatable king and they look better in my opinion.
if it was mechanical then i could see why someone would wan't it but it is a quartz.
You're missing the point.
@@mannysingh6618 well what is the point? all i can think of is that a few people might like the design
Super bad watch. I have one and will never flip it!
Get some adapters, the stock strap is poo...
