Citizen Promaster Dive Eco-Drive Watch, 3-Hand Date, ISO Certified, Luminous Hands and Markers, Rotating Bezel

Purchased this product almost a month ago. At first the packing. It was a huge box wrapped by some protective layer. Inside that box was lying a scuba tank which is worth seeing. Inside that tank, was the watch. Next the watch. You will be amazed to see the beauty of it. The polished stainless steel case, the glossy crown with the Promaster emblem in it, the highly glossy outline of the index markers will mesmerize you. The hands are beautiful with the hour hand outlined by glossy stainless steel, minute hand with vibrant orange outline, and the second hand is a thin white hand with a lume at the tip. The hour & minute hands are wide enough to see the time at any lighting condition. The dial is the deep navy blue colour (my favourite colour) on which the index marks & the hands really pop out. The bezel is also of deep navy blue colour. The strap is also navy blue colour which you may change if you donot like rubber strap. Now come to the time keeping capability of the watch. Its running 2 seconds late after 24 days. That means -3 seconds per month which is highly satisfied as you have to adjust time once in a year. Next the charging. The charging is quite fast. I opened the packing at night & after some exposure to the table lamp, it started running & I was amazed to see it running when I woke up in the morning though in a 2 seconds interval. After exposing it beside the window after about 2 hours, it began to tick in 1 second interval. Now the most striking feature of this watch - lume. Its awesome. You cannot understand this feature at the daytime, but at night, even in the middle of night, after 5 hours of last exposure to light, you can clearly see the glowing hands & markers with the naked eye (generally i use specs for reading & writing but to see timing in this watch, I donot use specs, it is so prominent). I was searching such feature in a watch for a long time & it is completely fulfilled by this watch. I really love it. Now the cons. The date window is really small though you can somehow manage to see it. the day is missing. The dial is quite large for small to medium wrists. The strap is of rubber. Final verdict : Every watch in this world has some pros & cons. It has also some. But despite it's cons, you should go for this watch without any hesitation as the appearance of the watch with deep navy blue dial & luminous hands & markers is great, the visibility of the hands is extraordinary, the lume is amazing with about -3 seconds variation per month. Its a must have watch. Addition after 7 months : it is running 8 secs late i.e., almost 1 sec per month. excellent.

Got Bowled by the case in which the watch came, it came in a Scuba Tank.. Genuine Purchase.. No regret. The only drawback is it does not ve Warranty in INDIA..

I have not used it for diving yet but I have no doubt it will prove well worth every rupee spent on it. Looks great. Keeps time perfectly. Solar powered - which is a divers dream. No need to open to change batteries! Can’t wait to take it under water. Will write more post that. So far a superb buy!!

The watch is really great. It came in original packaging, including the scuba tank box and papers. Everything works as expected. Ecodrive started within a few seconds after opening the box and going very precisely for the last two weeks. Shipping took a few days longer than expected due to customs. Reason for deduction is: The watch seems new, although there were no protective stickers on it. The Citizen paper box was crushed due to no padding around it.

Suberb watch, the quality really stands out in the Price Range. The accuracy of the watch is quiet good, which is expected for a quartz movement. been using it for almost a couple of months now and still shows the exact time compared to my mobile. You would have to go for a really expensive Automatic to get the same accuracy. The only gripe I have is that the glass is Mineral Crystal and Not Sapphire Crystal, hence more easily prone to scratches.

For such an iconic watch if there is no warranty,how can I buy this time piece with trust and confidence?If only the product warranty was available,I wouldn't hesitate a moment to purchase it.

This watch is a great daily time piece. The Eco-Drive Solar Quartz movement is durable, accurate and does not require battery changes for an extended period of time with many users stating the watch has operated smoothly for more than 10 years. The case design feels extremely robust and is backed up by ISO Certified 200m water resistance. To further add to this, it also includes a screw down crown for more security. The lume is extremely good and the watch also features a date window. Lastly, I confidently chose this time piece as my daily due to Citizen's excellent warranty as well as the service center being only 45 mins from my home. When it comes to appearances, I personally enjoy the look of this time piece and have very little to complain about. This piece also comes in a multitude of colours and you will definitely find one that you would enjoy wearing on your wrist! Since this is a quartz watch, due note that there are times when the second's hands to not line up the the markings inside the dial. Mine did not have this issue but it is something to note! I did however run into this issue with my Citizen BM8180-03E which I also purchased on Amazon and this is where Citizen's warranty and service center location adds great value to this time piece. I dropped off my timepiece at their service center and filled out a short form for personal information. I received email confirmation of them accepting my time piece and after 4 weeks, I received my watch back with properly lined up seconds hand! Overall the only downsides I can think of is the strap. It definitely feels a bit stiff when you first get it but there are tricks you can find online such as using warm water and a cup to help form it to fit your wrist better! ***Note*** This Amazon sold model does not come with the strap that has the text for non decompression times and did not come in the traditional scuba bottle box.

Relógio lindo demais

El reloj era lo q esperaba. El tamaño ideal y las calidades son buenas. No le doy cinco estrellas por q la correa m parece algo blanda y estrecha en la parte final

Muy buen reloj Diver todo terreno y muy estético.

Great Watch. Based on other reviews, here are some points to ponder if you are looking at purchasing this watch. Mine came in with all the tags and warranty card in a standard Citizen case. (It did not come in the fancy tank packaging (Amazon may want to remove this picture rom the listing), it came in the white and grey box as shown on the Citizen website for this watch). For a 44mm case it does look smaller than expected. For me, it fits nice on my wrist and is comfortable. The rubber band is a bit stiff but still comfortable and for the price, easily replaced if needed. Keep note, this is an Eco drive watch so it needs light to operate. More than likely it will come with no charge. What this means is once you open the box, it will slowly start working. At first the second hand will jump 2 seconds at a time. This does not mean the watch is broken, it is actually a signal showing a low charge. For me, I sat the watch under a lamp in my spare room over night and in the morning the watch was working fine. For the price, this is a great classic looking and functional Dive watch.
