Basically the title says it all. I picked up one of these brand new off eBay for $120 and I think this is a fantastic tool watch. I ended up with one for work as I’m in healthcare and didn’t want to gunk up my nicer GADA watch. It’s a great size for my slender wrist, easy to read and so far keeps great time! Yeah it’s an eco drive, not automatic but I mean for a watch I just can slip on and head to work I can’t think of a better model in ths price range. Definitely a firm recommendation from me for whatever that’s worth.

Like some others I wasn’t keen on the original strap but I picked up a few from CNS and I’m loving the single pass strap on it!

    I love solar quartz watches (I own three!) and am the rare watch enthusiast who prefers them to autos. But I don’t own this one because it’s a mineral crystal. Why Citizen doesn’t offer more sapphire versions of their eco-drive watches is beyond me, I’d happily pay a small premium for that.

      I’m a quartz enthusiast too and in general, Citizen watches are just too big for my chicken wrists.

    Any strap recommendations?! I just bought this a week ago and the strap is horrible.

    My first watch!

    I really wish Citizen would update this line with some new sizing, colors and materials. I don’t know what they’re thinking. They are way behind the curve. Period. They finally make a smaller pro master and then call it a women’s watch. Hello? Anybody home??

    This is my daily driver! Had it for 10 years and never had a problem. I’ve taken it through oceans, hot tubs, lakes and rivers. It’s lasted longer than three relationships, a failed marriage, and my current marriage. It’s been to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and been present for the birth of my children. I can’t state enough how much I love this watch. I’ve replaced the original strap 3 or 4 times now. Congrats on finding a true gem.

    Was actually just looking for one last week as it’s an eco-drive and has day-date drawbacks are the large size, small crown, overly busy display and 100m wr had it been a 38 with a larger crown, cleaner display and 200m wr would of had one immediatly …
