I’ve owed a eco-dive for about 15 years. Still runs incredibly well. Only problem I’ve ever had with it was after I left it in the dark for a while and it stopped completely. I thought I’d killed it. I put it on a window sill for a day to charge and it fired right back up.
The same happened to me. They last for so long that i just forget to put them by the window so they can charge (I own two eco-drive watches)
They're in my opinion the pinnacle for a beater watch. near-zero maintenance (leave it near a sunny window for a day once every 4-10 months depending on model), high tech (particularly the radio/GPS controlled ones), sapphire glass. Everything you need in a watch in one economical package. My only complaint is they're not the best looking, which is why I still collect automatics for my own passion. Every day I still wear an eco-drive, because why not?
I just purchased this watch and I am anxious to get it by mail, Can you tell me in 15 years used how many times you have to change the battery? Thx...
Did you ever have to change the battery?
@@otunca I have the same question lol
I've been wearing the blue version for about 7 months now- I don't think I have had to change the time yet- very accurate for me. I love the orange minute hand, as my eye picks it up instantly, and most of the time I only need to know the minute reading since i know what hour it is. It fits my lifestyle perfectly- I'm retired and I do a lot of yardwork and outdoor hobbies , and I don't have to baby this thing at all. I have fish ponds and am always dunking my hands in the pond without worry. I still wear the original strap as I can easily wash it off without it soaking up water or dirt as a canvas band might do.
My only complaint was that I could not read the date with my old eyes. Even with glasses, it was not easy. After a bunch of research, I took a chance and bought a date magnifier crystal, and had my local watchmaker glue it on. Best thing i ever did ! Very few pictures available showing a date magnifier at 4 o'clock, but it works perfect for me.
I like this watch so much for my day to day activities, I have decided not to get a more expensive brand, as this one meets all my needs. Highly recommend !
I own the blue one , I dive ; this is what I wear underwater . The watch also offered in three other colors ( red , white and green ) but the blue one is the prettiest of all five .
How long you had it? Wrist size?
I have 3 Calibre 2100’s from 1998 - 2000 that are still running perfectly with zero issues - my titanium version is 22 years old.
I just bought a titanium Promaster. I love it and hope to have it for 22 years.
Citizen it's so underrated, despite being one of the major brands and achieve things like the 0100 caliber
I've got a friend that has several and they are a quite nice alternative to Seiko
Honestly I like that they're underrated. It keeps their price low and it's kind of like having an "in the know" watch. True watch enthusiasts know when they see a Citizen that you're wearing a fine time piece while preppy rich kids wear Breitlings SOLELY because of the name brand. I like that Citizen remains being of similar quality to Bulova, Rolex, Omega, and Tudor whilst keeping a decent price point because of its underrated status.
@@mulder19x95 facts
Slowly becoming my favourite watch and my favourite brand! Great quality, great QC, lume and the Eco-drive is slowly pushing me from automatics towards quartz lately. Just an amazing watch!
I have a Professional Diver Eco Drive 300M Titanium - owned it since 2004. It's a great watch, and it's been to 75 metres with me around the South Pacific, and it has an extension strap for dry suit use. It flooded on me once in 2012 but repaired and stgill in use for diving. The SS versions are just too heavy. This is one of three Eco-Drives I own, the other two are WR200 military styles a SS from 2015 and the one I really love from 2000. My 2000 one is just in for service now for the first time after 22 years of ownership, and it too has been on deep dives with me since 2000 without issue.
I am wearing my blue version as I do most days. I have owned Promasters since learning to dive in the 90s. My instructors wore them and that was good enough for me. Highly recommended, probably 10-15 years or more before capacitor/rechargeable battery needs replacing, cheap enough to do. The finish is outstanding.
Citizen Is one of those underrated brands. I own a BN0150-28E, outstanding, absolutely worth the value
Have had this watch for a few years (blue). Citizen Eco Drive is easily some of the best tech to marry to quartz watches... I have brutalized this watch, and it still wears and looks beautiful. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you are looking for a solid dive watch, that is also attractive out of water!
Does the mineral glass got scratched?
Been rocking this watch a lot as a daily driver with a NATO strap. It's affordable, super durable, solar-powered so basically will never die on you and quartz powered so super accurate, feels robust and solidly made. One of Citizen's best offerings out there, really consider getting it if you're looking for a Diver.
I might just do that. It looks perfect for outdoors & everyday use.
@@rsw552 The Stainless Steel bracelet version is amazing if you can get that one. The quality of that band is on par with my entry level swiss watches like the Victorinox so that's something for the price. Otherwise if you plan on just using anything else get the Silicone and pair it with a James Bond (black / gray) NATO, looks really good.
@@KrazyShark Great suggestions/info. Thanks. 👌
You should look into Citizens Signature collection. They are discontinued now but those pieces are beautiful
I have the blue dial and it's one of my favorite watches. I wear it in the ocean almost every day, and it has been a trusty workhorse for several years now. You're not kidding about the lume...absolutely phenomenal! I have both an SKX and several "higher end" divers in my collection, but this one sees the most wrist time and it's a super handsome piece to boot. Thanks for sharing, Teddy. Love your content.
I wish they made a Pepsi version of this!
I have the black dial and the thing I hate most is the mineral crystal. It scratches so easily. Regret buying this watch.
Just got the blue dial pro master with stainless steel bracelet for my bday. First real watch after wearing an apple for 5 yrs. Came with a cool scuba tank to display your watch when your not wearing it. I don’t dive, but I do swim so it will look great at the beach or water park. It’s a great simple everyday watch. Looks great and the Lume looks good in low light.
Hey i actualy bought this as my first dive watch after finding your channel. It has some good diving specs for the price and is a great every day watch! I would advise anyone who has thought about buying this watch to go for it!
Thanks for sharing your personal experience, Lewis!
@@TeddyBaldassarreReviews no problem man thanks for making great videos they are very interesting to watch 👍
At first I didn’t like the “ND limits” text on the strap (and seems like others agree). But when I realized that the text and style of band is exactly the same as the original Aqualand from the mid 1980s, that changed my mind. The orange minutes hand dates back at least that long too. If the text was just a recent addition, it would be sort of lame and gimmicky. But because it’s been on Citizen straps for 35+ years, it charming and gimmicky. ;)
Yeah I love it and I don't even dive
Nice diver. I purchased an Eco Drive watch for my daughter about 15+ years ago with a water resist leather strap. Never understood water resist leather. She enjoyed it. Good vid. Keep at it!
I have had the black version for about 3 weeks and use it as my everyday beater watch. I was a mechanical watch snob with several mechanicals but I missed the accuracy of quartz. What really sold me is the Eco-drive where I don't have to worry about the battery dying at an inopportune moment. My other beater is the famous SKX but after 5 years it accuracy was way off...almost 20 mins per day! Granted that it needed servicing but still cannot compare to quartz accuracy. The other comment is I am an avid skier and the lower-end mechanicals are sensitive to banging your ski boots on which certainly thru off the SKX. Overall I am THRILLED with this watch as it looks great, rugged and now the everyday watch that I depend on to be on time for everything from desk diver calls to painting the house and swimming in the ocean!
Been wearing it for a month now, at work in the bike shop, at home, when going out (as much as that is still not really a thing).
And I love it, superb value. Strap also got more comfortable and a bit of rubbing alcohol takes care of the writing on the strap aswell.
Little Update: still wears great, the raised slightly raised bezel insert actually protects the crystal really well. But I ditched the original strap as I fell in love with the marine nationale style stretchy nato straps. Man those make this thing disappear on wrist and make a square G feel uncomfortable as hell lol.
This thing is super solid. No complaints. Be sure to get a protective glass covering for the mineral glass. Prevents scratches and sits a hair above the bezel, preventing scratches/paint chips on it too if you knock into something. I had to place the strap under some books over a few nights to get it to wear right. I think the included strap complements the look the best (I don't think a thinner strap looks as good). Accuracy is around 1-2 seconds fast per month. It's my first real watch and I could see it being my only real watch.
Where do you get a protective glass cover for this watch please?
@@andysmith1996 Amazon has them, though I wouldn't get the watch itself through that place
@@bobsondugnutt7526 Thanks. Do you know if anyone makes replacement bezels? I think it's look good with a Pepsi or Coke style bezel. I saw one where someone had put the bezel from the blue model on a black model and that looked good, too. Do you recommend the watch? They seem to have jumped a lot in price from a few years ago.
does the protective glass affects the solar charge?
@@dark_power72 To this point I've never had a power issue. I don't make a point to charge it, I just wear it.
Have mine for 5 years now, swim everyday in the Med with it during the summer months, there is a bit of wear on the rubber strap otherwise it is perfect. I couldn't get to it for 10 months during lockdown, (it was left in a press with a glass front) but it was still going strong when I put it on my wrist again.
Most of my watches are automatic. However I have a few quartz timepieces and I think they are awesome. My Grand Seiko, Sinn, and Seiko Marine Master are not only tough and rugged, they are nice-looking. I bought this Citizen Promaster because I was curious about solar. Great piece and I plan to pick up another Eco Drive for my collection.
Yeah the solar aspect grabbed my attention as well
I still have some Citizen Eco Drive watches from many years ago, so far none have failed way outside the warranty period. Accuracy is as good today as they were many years ago and all of then within + second or so a day. I'd guess the standby time may have reduced somewhat over the years but I've never had to put this to the test. Whilst I don't have a Citizen diver (why not?) I do have a lot of respect for the brand and the solar technology that they have used for a very long time. I like and purchase watches that appeal to me for a multitude of reasons regardless if they are mechanical or quartz, No snobbery here. Only earlier today another purchase for yet another new digital G-SHock. Great review Teddy!
I have 3 citizen eco watches. Magnificent altogether. Great ready to go watches.
i've had a blue one for more than 5 years. upgraded to the stainless steel bracelet. excellent piece.
How is year 7 holding up?
@@donhoward4218 no issues, still wears like new.
@@baloosdhow about the glass?
@@GavynBrauer only mineral, but mine is scratch-free, no issues.
Purchased this today from TeddyB! Gift for my son to convert him to a watch addict.
Thank you for your support, Dan!!
One of the best budget watches ever! You can't go wrong with this watch.
It's not expensive but it certainly isn't
a budget watch either.
@@Stoater1 For about $200 it is most definitely a budget timepiece.
@@aryanbaweja896 No, it's not. I know guys like you. If it's not overpriced hype, it's "budget." If you're not paying thousands for a name, it's "budget." Fucking ridiculous.
I bought this for my friend a few years ago. Seeing the worn bezel makes me proud to have given it to him
Great review and watched it while wearing my black dial model. Love that the second hand hits the indices spot on. As for accuracy, it gains about 5 seconds a month. Lume is on par with my SKX and readable after 6 to 7 hours of darkness. My only real critique of the watch is the tiny date window, but other than that absolutely no complaints.
Totally agree about that tiny date window
I wear my 150 (black face) maybe every other day, It's my primary grab and go watch. I've got a 151 (blue face) in the case. The 150 is on a Bond NATO. The 151 is on an oyster bracelet. Fit and finish are very good. They look terrific. For around $200. these are hard to beat; a great value. These watches hit that sweet spot between a tool watch, and a dress watch. You can wear it with jeans, or a suit. Some guys call them dress divers.
If you had to choose one, black or blue?
CB - I wear the black on a NATO, and I wear it a lot. The blue is on a bracelet and it looks terrific. I wear it when I want to feel pretty. I'd say go blue, because not too many guys are wearing blue watches. Enjoy!
I have been enjoying scubadiving for 15 yrs. The best diver watch is submariner bu far. It truely elevate all diving funtionality factor into a piece of art. I’m more Omega man and Rolex hater but I give full thumbs up for submariner.
Other than submariner, of all diver watch, this one is the best. Easy grip bezel, great loom dial yet 12hr dot and minite hand has different color. Ecodrive not to open back yet no need to set time everytime you wear. Rubber band w ND time. This is the next best diver watch so much better than seamaster, aquaracer, marinemaster or etcs.
I'm actually wearing my blue Promaster right now! A great watch for the price.
thanks for watching Tyler!
Me too!
Not just for the price, a great watch at ANY price.
I'm wearing mine too I have it in black and I think it's a great watch with nice build quality :)
I just ordered a ProMaster from Amazon.. be My first citizen watch.. I hope I like Eco-Drive
Citizen is the Honda of the watch world... in my opinion
Well, a lot of people think Honda sucks, so not sure which way to read your comment.
So Casio is the Toyota? And Seiko is the Mitsubishi?
i don't have any citizen. now you make me want to buy this watch.
Thanks for this review. I purchased a black version of this right after you posted and have not taken it off since. It's just the right size and I like the 4 O'clock adjustment. The only change I made was wider version of the band that I trimmed to fit. It now flares out to the same width of the lugs on either side and it look great. The way it should come from Citizen.
I have one of these and it's a real dive watch and the real deal. I have two friends who are professional divers and they both use Promasters.
I have both the black and blue versions. Fantastic watches. Great size, GREAT lume (lasts all night) very visible hands with high contrast. Bezel function is the best on the market. ECO-DRIVE! Both of mine are on Miltat FKM rubber straps (the blue is a perfect match)
Does it really last all night 🤔
@@jayskywalker5049 It does last several hours at least. I charge mine with a regular flashlight (less than a minute) since I spend most of time inside, and although the strong lume disappears quickly, in properly dark environment you can still see it shining for hours.
2:55 did I hear him say unsigned crown? It is most definitely signed.
Killer watch. Great review. I love Citizen watches. You can't go wrong with a Promaster.
Thanks for that. I thought I heard it too. Mine has the Promaster symbol on the crown as well. Keeps perfect time.
I bought the green dial version, one of my best budget diver watches. Really looks stunning!
Bought the Coke recently on special for about $150USD. The Pepsi on bracelet was $120USD. Very happy with this watch. Dimensions and fit beat even many Seikos.
I have this watch, love it and just put it on a BluShark nato!
This looks great on a nato!
@@TeddyBaldassarreReviews I have to agree. I do have a question for you. Why on pictures and reviews are do watches show the time 10 past 10?
@@mashedpotato238 blog.crownandcaliber.com/why-are-watch-hands-always-placed-at-1010/ basically it just looks nice and usually doesn't obstruct any complications
@@TeddyBaldassarreReviews do u carry this exact nato for this watch. I'm interested in a link.
I got it for 129 EUR (Amazon sale), but had to return it 2 times, because the seconds handle wasn't aligned correctly to the markers. Great watch and great video... :-)
If I charge the lume before I go to bed, I can still read the time in the dark in the early morning. Incredible!
Citizen - the KING of quartz!
2:56 “The unsigned screw down crown”. Looks signed to me! (2:16)
Good presentation Teddy. I've had the 168 movement in another Citizen for eight years. It has taken a beating sailing but keeps time at +.3 seconds/day regardless of conditions. Ideal for cel nav timing which requires a chronometer which is simply a consistent timepiece.
Got one of these on prime day a few years back for $60. Also longislandwatch is selling bracelets for these now.
VERY underrated Brand. Good content Ted 👍🏽
@Nigel Molesworth clearly you must be NEW to the Watch Community. If you must know...let's start with the RUclipsrs. Few of them feature Citizen watches on their channels. There's one in particular who openly admitted, that he hadn't featured the Brand enough on his channel. Teddy started his business quite a while ago ...and it's only now he's introduced the brand to his catalog. I could go on to give more examples. But as I said...you seem NEW to all of this.
@Nigel Molesworth I only gave the RUclipsr as ONE example Sir ( seeing we're having this exchange on a RUclipsr's page ). But I'm not gonna make this into a debate with you. There are MANY others who have agreed with my comment, within the community...its OK if you don't.
@Nigel Molesworth Brands like Casio ( Seiko, Citizen etc. ) appeal to the masses, because they offer watches that are INEXPENSIVE and get the job done, not because the Brand is “ LIKED " or appreciated. Your average Joe isn't interested in Brand, Heritage and the like that appeals to the Hobbyist and Enthusiast, which are very small communities of people. This is a statement of FACT and not opinion...your argument is WEAK.
@Nigel Molesworth Citizen is mostly popular in Asia...NOT in the USA , UK, Canada,Europe or South America. It is underrated in most of the world ---but not where the most populated Asian countries are buying these things like hotcakes. in the sense that most people buy cheap Walmart / Amazon homages, Casio watches, etc because they are cheap. The average person has no idea which movement is in their watch. I work with physician's that have no idea that there are even solar watches...lol. One MD was super impressed.....he only knows the quartz world...not even automatics. Eco-drive?..forget it.
In my country(ASEAN), it is more popular than Orient. They are sold in both department stores and many markets.
I have the black one --lume lasts all night....... easily. The movement is almost exact-- compared to atomic time clock . It gaines a FEW ....and I mean an honest FEW.....seconds per month. Easily the most accurate watch I own...besides my / protrek / atomic watches.
ADDENDUM: i REPLACED THE STRAP WITH A SILCONE DIVER BAND....SUPER COMFORTABLE.
These watches are going for $180 on the Citizen store on Amazon. What a deal.
Nice!
I have 3 my self 2 black 1 blue one, I just love them great value for money, plus very accurate thank you for reviewing this incredible piece, is a must for any collection out there...👍👍.
For some reason RUclips has started pushing watch collectors' videos to my feed.
I'm sitting here with this exact watch on my wrist. For comfort, I replaced the strap with a Nato strap as he suggests. I bought it probably four or five years ago. I just checked the time against time.is and it's running accurate to less than a second, though I can't remember when I last set it - certainly not in the last month or two. I take it off when I shower because I don't want soap residue on it, but otherwise it's on my wrist 24hrs a day, 365 days a year. Yes, I sleep with a watch on. I don't dive, but I do sail dinghies and it's taken a few capsizes in its stride. It has a couple of scratches to the glass, nothing obvious but it's a shame. I still think it looks better than some gaudy Rolex. It's the black version and on the rare occasions I wear a business suit or a tuxedo it doesn't look out of place.
So yes, I'd love to get into the watch collecting hobby, RUclips - the problem is I can't think of a single reason to buy any other watch.
Have the blue on an orange Borealis strap. Has been my go-to for stand up paddle boarding, swimming, snorkeling and general beach days here in Aus. I've had many dive watches but this has been my reliable water watch.
I own two of the Promaster Automatics. One in black the other is the sought after dark navy blue variant. While my Promasters are both mechanical, I'm not by any stretch a movement snob. I wear a Citizen GN-4-S during the week as it is a lovely eco-drive field watch. My collection of Automatic watches includes the two Promasters and Vostock Amphibia that I modified with a new dial and bezel several years ago. I think the Steve Zissou/Bill Murray case back and some new hands might be in it's future (I tend to get bored over winter).
My favourite watch, excellent build quality and super accurate...
I have 3 of these - the blue, the black and the green and I love wearing all of them.This watch is beautiful and indestructible - definitely one of my faves.
You’ve convinced me, Teddy! Great watch and respectable brand. Thank you.
I have an exact blue one .A good diver watch
ouuu you know, i've been seriously looking into citizen lately! fab video T!
I have the automatic version, it is very similar in appearance but with the crown at 8 o'clock.
I bought this because it is as good as
or more likely better than the Seikos
a this price point.
I also have the Promaster diving chronograph rated at 200m.
What about accuracy, regarding the automatic Citizen dive Watch? Are you pleased with it? Thank you so much
I own one of the blue watches and I really like it. I do wish that it had a larger date window and a bezel that is easier to grip.
I'm wearing my promaster on black NATO. Unstoppable watch
i wonder the one disliked this video was a SEIKO Fan🤔🤔
I think it's possible to like both. I like Seiko a lot but they don't have anything in this price range that can compete. At thie price you're looking at the new Seiko 5's, which have half the water resistance, and personally I don't mind quartz because it's convenient, reliable, and accurate.
Lately seiko become overprice and some models have QC issues
Thank you for this review for I realized that by purchasing this watch I got an extremely good deal. Like your reviews.
Thank you Teddy, I bought my first ever citizen dive watch, I am totally satisfied of that😍👌
I LOVE the look of this thing just pulled the trigger on one from Amazon on black Friday for 150 I'm a Virgin diver this is my first
I have the black dialed version that I bought last November and I really like it. I also have a smaller case 300m Ecodrive diver that I've had for around 7 years and it still works great. I recently bought the all lume dialed automatic Citizen diver with the crown at 8:00 because I wanted an all lume dial but I've been moving away from automatic watches for several years now due to the increased costs of servicing an automatic. Nice review.
I have the automatic diver NY0084. Citizen make great quality pieces! Tough and accurate.
Me too.
got the green dial today BN0154-01X ..replaced the rubber strap with my titanium bracelet that was just lying around. and man love it already. kudos citizen
Citizen dive watches are underrated - Citizen BN0000-04H is/was the Royal Navy issue watch
Seem like this and the Marathon Nav, Orient Defender 2 are (as newbie) are best of tool watch on entry level. One thing with Promaster's I do get a kick of people who wear the 53 mm Professional Diver as daily. As functional dive watches most of my former co-worker who dived professionally in Kane'ohe bay or Pearl Harbor doing biological survey work just wore very complex digital stuff from the likes Suunto, Garmin or Aqua Lung.
I have the blue Promaster Diver, it is a really fun beach watch, just get rid of the factory strap.
My first Promaster. Highly recommended. Very robust and with very good quality control.
Hey! Im a Baltazar, old Spanish name. Excellent video my friend, I love diver watches for they are my favorite. Keep up the great work!
BEST WATCH IN THE WORLD, 2 MIN FOR 1 Y........IT IS PERFECT, I HAVE BLUE AND BLACK!!
I like how you are not afraid to call out the Quartz snobbery out.
I have several watches and some of my favorite ones are quartz. and truth to be told I can only manage to own one Mechanical watch at the time . If I am rotating watches having to deal with adjusting the time on 5 watches all gaining or losing several seconds a day it is tedious. quartz, specially the solar type and atomic are extremelly maitenance free and you can just put it on and don't worry about anything and go on your way.
I swear by the Ecozilla! The lume on Citizens is amazing!
I own one (blue on bracelet) very nice very accurate .. and fantastic lume !
Me 2. Looks great with a bracelet
I just bought the middle size version, 37 mm, for my 15 cm wrist, EO2020-08E
everything is shrunk from the original, except for the thickness, diver specifications, and the E168 caliber
very well proportioned, especially for women and men with small wrists
I love my Blue Promaster! The crown on mine is signed!
By who???
I have one of these: very functional and reliable - used it diving and swimming in rivers and seas with no issues whatsoever - I'd recommend it all day long.
DOES ANYBODY KNOW where I can get the original stainless steel Citizen bracelet that fits for less than the rrp of the price of the watch itself ? There are several shameless thieves masquerading as legitimate companies who offer the bracelet for more than the actual watch costs !
I had this watch and loved it. Sadly I lost it and purchased the Casio Duro which is a very nice watch but I still miss my Promaster. Think I'm going to get another. Simple design and manly.
Surely someone has nicknamed this the Transformer because of that 3, 6, 9, and especially 12 o'clock indices.
Absolutely phenomenal watch.
Man this is such a perfect diver's watch
Just received it today! Beautiful watch. And great price with Teddy! Big fan. Keep up the good work!
Nothing wrong with quartz. I have a Seiko Marine Master and I am now getting into solar watches. I don't dive but I snorkel. This Promaster has been a great find and I plan to buy the Tough.
I want to get this watch. It'll look good next to my Casio Duro.
Thx for the video, almost ordered the Seiko prospex solar 43.5mm but now this one comes into play, looks very appealing except for the strap
Love this watch! Thanks for sharing Teddy!
Thank you Teddy for syncing the two watches in the video.
I have this watch, but with the green bezel and dial, as well as the NY0040 Promaster 'Lefhty' automatic, I love boy=th of them as they are just brilliant performers.
bought Citizen original metal bracelet and can´t be happier after combined that with my blue dial one.
I have the green dial one. I found the band too stiff and replaced it with a softer rubber band. Watch is a beast and the lume is the best I’ve ever seen. Good job with the review.
The green one is now available on a bracelet, and an awesome one - milled clasp with a divers extension, solid links and end links..I really am contemplating getting one. I'm a little afraid of the 44mm though - would love if Citizen did them the same size as the Automatics
I had mine on a bright orange NATO and it looked very purposeful. I ended up selling it cause it was just too much hardware on my wrist. Just wasn't my style, unfortunately. Still, 10/10; would recommend.
i bought the green version, my first ever dive watch, it's so catchy, citizen got me hooked into watch collecting. I love the brushed finish, but the bracelet is not too comfortable, probably change to strap or nato
Teddy, I don't know if you've checked this model out in awhile, but Citizen is offering some different color varieties. They are making this watch with a lovely rose gold case with a textured dial now for about a $100 premium over the regular price.
Citizen does this type of affordable watch better than anyone, IMO. Dollar for dollar they are nicer than Seiko, if you can find a design that doesn't look crazy.
I will normally go about 230 meters down into the ocean (no equipment either!), so this might not quite be enough
Thanks Teddy you’re the man! Best reviews and outstanding website process, from prices to checkout! ❤❤❤
Very nice watch! And eco-drive is great!
And another great video from Teddy ❤️
(Btw there is no subtitles)
keep up the good work 👍
Citizen Eco-drive watches are very capable watches. I own the pro-master titanium BN0200 56e, good watch for the money.
Good watch for any money IMO!
How long does the lume last
