 "The best watch I've owned" 2010-04-07
By aksdealer (Boston, MA USA)
I wanted a simple, elegant watch with no battery change worries and no date change issues. This watch meets all my expectations and more. The two tone band looks great, very classy. The white dial with black roman numerals is simple yet elegant. I have got many compliments on how beautiful this watch looks. Also, this watch is super slim. I removed 2 links using a 1mm screw driver to adjust the length of the band. This was easy to do and can be done at home. I've had this watch now for close to 6 months and it keeps very accurate time. Love the solar functionality and will definitely consider buying another eco-drive in the future.

 "Nice Watch, Poor Instructions" 2008-07-06
By P. Wilke (Brown Deer, WI USA)
This watch is a fine product and is very comfortable to wear, but I would NOT recommend buying it on the internet. It comes with no less than four instruction sets for the watch itself, but there are no instructions for adjusting the band, which is of a rather unusual design! While you can get a shop manual for the band from Citizen (which I did) you cannot adjust the band without a 1MM screwdriver (this is smaller than a typical eyeglass adjuster) which is an item you will almost certainly not have in your toolbox (even several watch repair shops couldn't adjust the band for me!). Finally, a kindly Citizen dealer was able to adjust the band to fit my wrist (which made me feel guilty that I had not bought the watch from her), but if you want this watch it will be MUCH easier if you buy it from a Citizen dealer who should have the tool to adjust the unusual wristband.

 "Classic looks, light and Solar powered time keeper!" 2007-01-06
By Thomas M. Miner (St. Pete, FL)
I had one of these 2 years ago - it suddenly disappeared. That watch had a deep blue face - very nice looking - VERY dificult to read! Why? The shimmer of the glass face with the dark background prohibited easy reading of the watch hands and the numerals.



This white faced beauty is perfect! Light on the wrist, and if you do a lot of computer work - it is sooooo thin that you can bear up to wear it all day while at your desk using the keyboard! Larger thicker bands and watches will normally cause discomfort while doing this kind of work due to the rubbing against the desk while tapping out on a keyboard!



I hightly recommend this watch for it's classic appeal, great time keeping - and it's environmental friendly solar recharging. This is my 5th Citizens watch! And I love this one the most!

 "A good option for a diver's watch, as well as a day-to-day sport watch." 2009-12-14
By Cosmin Nahaiciuc (ON, Canada)
Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Promaster Carbon Watch #BN0055-53E

I recently purchased the watch and the first noticeable feature was its XXL size. Even on a big wrist it may appear somewhat oversized but despite this, every design detail makes it look and feel good. Overall, it feels solid and nicely built. I expected for a watch like this to be made in Japan (movement & case entirely made in Japan) rather than "Japan Movt" (only movement made in Japan, while assembled and cased elsewhere), but surprisingly none in the whole series is, whether you spend $300 or $800 (this is the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5). Its large, black dial with luminescent hour marks and hands makes it easy to read under any lighting situation, including underwater; furthermore if exposed to light during the day it glows the whole night. I opted for this specific model as I have been using another Eco-Drive, the Citizen Aqualand BJ2054-51E for the last 4 years and although I loved it I have always been bothered by its excessively busy dial. With this new one, I was looking for simplicity, sturdiness and reliability and so far I'm pleased with my choice. For divers, the carbon fiber bezel offers a nice grip, even with gloves on, which is always a feature to be appreciated. The mineral crystal glass is truly non-reflective and it feels solid but its flush mount with the case makes it somewhat prone to be accidentally hit (and eventually scratched/chipped). I didn't own it long enough to be able to submit a comprehensive accuracy test result but it seems to amaze me with a mere 1 second deviation in 5-6 days, which would result in a remarkable accuracy of only 5-6 seconds deviation per month. The screw-down crown seems to be better built than the previous models as the date adjustment can now be performed without accidentally stopping the watch when actually this was not intended (date adjustment is performed by pulling the crown one notch, while time adjustment requires pulling the crown further, to the second notch). The stainless steel bracelet looks and feels solid and is easily adjustable for various wrist sizes by removing as many links as needed. The expandable clasp sounds like a nice feature for divers but unfortunately it just doesn't extend long enough to allow the watch to be worn over a 7mm wet suit if the bracelet was previously adjusted to snugly fit the owner's writs. The date placed at 3 o'clock doesn't have magnifying glass but, personally I like it this way. Overall a nice watch and with prices expected to go down in the near future it truly makes a very good option for a diver's watch, as well as a day-to-day sport watch.



A final advice: go see it before you buy it - the pictures are deceiving about the size; it's BIG.

 "NIce watch" 2009-11-19
By T. Dahleen (Minnesota)
I purchased this watch about 3 weeks ago. Had given my wife a Citizen Eco-Drive about 3 years ago and has been a wonderful and reliable watch. I have been looking to get a Citizen Eco-Drive Dive watch (I'm a scuba diver) for my self and this one finally came down to a price I could live with. This is a very well constructed watch. But beware this watch has some serious size and weight to it. I own two Invicta Dive watch's I bought about 8 years ago and they are OK watch's but they don't come close to the quality of the Citizen. Good Watch for a Good Price.

By Engineer1 (Iraq)

I just received this watch and I will agree with the previous reviewer that it takes a few minutes to set up, but the instructions are clear and once it's done, it's easy to maintain.



If any gripe at all, the rubber strap is too large (and I have a large wrist) and there really aren't any adjustments you can make to it other than physically cut it down...but it appears the strap is designed just for that.

By Marvin Cohn (San Antonio, TX)
I shopped around quite a while for a simple, elegant, and thin-cased watch to replace a 15 year-old Seiko, whose time had run out. The case had lost its integrity due to the many battery changes. Well, this Citizen supposedly doesn't need battery replacement due to its constantly being charged by light. We shall see...so far so good.

The only con is that the day/date is a little small and difficult for these old eyes to see; but it "ain't" going back. Everything else is simply beautiful about it.

 "Lovely and thin ... but" 2005-03-11
By Frank S (Chicago)
I really treasure the watch. It is exactly what I was looking for. It is thin and quite comfortable on my wrist. It looks sharp and is a great conversation piece. How many people do you know with a solar powered watch ... and one that doesn't look like a piece of technology too!



Charging it has turned out to be no problem ... as I left the watch in full-sun for several days. NOT having a charge indicator IS a drawback. It is hard to KNOW when you need a re-charge. Other Citizen watches tell you they need charging by the behavior of the second hand. This watch has no second hand.



The band is especially comfortable, something that is important with any metal-link band, although the clasp is difficult to work. It requires that you press two 'buttons' -- one each on either side of the band -- to release AND connect the band. The action is tricky, and may not be to everyone's taste. It is a llittle awkward.



Be warned that the watch is ONLY water resistant. Do not wear it while doing the dishes!



Lastly ... my watch appears to run slow ... losing roughly a minute every two days. This may only be MY watch. I have contacted the seller and am waiting for a response.



Update -- CAUTION. The seller explained that the watch runs slow because it is not being fully charged. When I explained that the watch had sat in full sun for two days and still ran slow, the seller stopped communicating.

 "great, but costly repair" 2009-09-02
By Hotan Rohparvar
Excellent watch. I love it.



I bought this watch a few years ago. I have gotten many compliments on this watch over the years. One person saw it on my hand and thought it was a Rolex. I can't speak for how accurate the watch is. I have not had any issues with it keeping the time, but I wouldn't notice if the time was off a little.



The only issue I had with it was when i dropped it. the minute and hour hand stopped moving. I sent it in for repair, and I got a bill for $115 to fix it (parts, labor, tax and shipping). I did a search for it and came up with around $250-300 to buy a new one. I just think that the price is too high.

 "Good watch...but has some flaws" 2009-08-07
By E. Aris (San Diego, CA)
I've owned this watch for about 4 years now. Just some comments on what I've experienced with it.



The dial window, being mineral, scratches easily. I have already replaced it once.



The watch band and case is a combination of a polished stainless steel and a brushed stainless steel. The polished parts tend to scuff and scratch easily. Cost me a pretty penny to get it polished out, so now I don't wear the watch as much as I used to.



Adjusting the time is also a little "odd". When you pull out the side button to adjust the time and you go to adjust, the minute hand moves, but it stops at every minute marker. So changing the time is a bit of a chore. So I usually don't take this watch with me when I travel to a different time zone.



I have the Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Calibre 8700 Watch #BL8000-03A, and adjusting the time on that watch is as you would expect. You turn the button as fast or as slow as you want and the arms move accordingly.



I do have to say, of all of my metal banded watches, this one is the most comfortable. It's a good looking watch, all in all, but just be careful with it, because it easily scratches. If you tend to be hard on watches like I do, might want to look for a watch that's mostly, if not all a brushed stainless steel or brushed titanium.

 "You get a lot of watch for the price!" 2008-11-22
By William R. Merton (Columbia, SC, USA)
I'd have to agree with everybody here. This watch was definitely a nice add to the "collection" and I find myself choosing to wear it at least as often as even the most expensive watches I own. I, too, truly appreciate the perpetual calendar with the leap year function.



As can be expected, though, it takes a bit to figure out how to set the time/date/etc and I'll have to keep the manual somewhat handy since it's not necessarily a pull-the-crown-and-adjust-the-time affair like simpler watches.



Overall, it's a beautiful watch and I'm very pleased with it!

 "Impressive Watch" 2008-11-11
By J. Verzosa (Seattle, Wa USA)
If you're undecided whether you should buy this watch or its counterpart with a blue face, here's your answer: Go for this one! I've had a chance to compare this item side by side with the blue face Calibre 8700. The latter is more popular but pales in comparison to the elegance of the black and white faced dial. The black, white and gray contrast each other so well it goes along with any conceivable wardrobe that you may have. The bracelet is equally handsome and distinct. Setting up the watch may initially be cumbersome, but with the help of the included interactive CD guide, it's a cinch even for non-techies. Also compare the price on Amazon with a regular jeweler's and you'll know you're getting a really great deal here.

I purchased this watch as a replacement to my fossil watch I have had for about 3 or 4 years. I always wanted a Citizen watch and decided to get on for my birthday. Out of the box, I loved this watch's look. Vintage, but modern, full of features, and Citizen reliability. Looks good on my arm and looks a lot more expensive then it really is. It takes a little time to set the time, day and calender but once you do, that's it.

 "Petite + Classic + Style" 2009-08-07
By Maria D. Leguizamo (Angel1234)
First and for most, I am super happy with this watch. It's the perfect watch I was looking for. A small, cute, and stylish watch--all in 1. I love it. I didn't buy it online, I actually bought it at JcPenny and I was very thrilled and happy to get it because not only does Citizen make nice watches, but the price is excellent. Overall, I give it a 5 stars so far. I don't know about being water resistant though bc the guy who sold it to me said it wasn't so not sure if it is or not. I highly recommend this watch.

 "Very Pleased" 2009-06-08
By Bargain Shopper (Kaneohe, Hawaii USofA)
I've been going from store to store looking for a very small elegant bracelet watch for months now. Most small bracelet watches are two toned, have a black face, and/or no hour markings. I have to say I was not completely thrilled when I purchased the watch, but was thrilled when I actually received it. The picture does it no justice! So here is a small personal description. The actual band is smaller than an eraser head. The watch face is about the size of a dime in hight and a little smaller than a dime in width. The face isn't white. It is more of a matte silver metallic color. The band has a "smooth" pave type finish which will be resilient to scratches. The best part is that there is a protected groove going down the middle length of the band that is shiny as all get out! It is very feminine, slinky, and has a lot of class. It goes perfect with my wedding ring, but is small enough to fit in any casual occasion. An amazing deal for the price. I only have one question. Is the watch waterproof and how many feet? I do not recommend women with very large wrists to buy this watch. It does not come with an extra link. I have a "medium" sized wrist and it fits me perfect. For ladies with small wrists, this is also a great buy because bracelets usually hang a little, but a link can be taken out professionally. A comment was made about it possibly scratching someone when worn. I have to disagree with them. Definitely a great watch and brand... especially for the price! A+A+A+

 "Great Watch!" 2009-02-15
By Jeannie (Michigan)
I've owned this watch for well over 5 yrs (the length of the manufacturer's warranty...) and love it! I get so many compliments on it. People comment on how small it is and how versatile--wear it to the gym or a wedding and it fits right in! It is so small that it isn't something that necessarily catches your eye as often bulky watches can. The only problem with my watch is I lost it! This watch is durable. I've accidentally dropped it from a standing position and it's hit the ceramic tile floor several times. Still accurate and unscratched! My son accidentally slid it down the sink drain a couple yrs ago and it sat in the trap for several mins while I figured out how to remove the pipe to retrieve it. Still ticking! Kohl's website says it is water resistant to 167 feet (haven't found that mentioned elsewhere). I'm unsure about that claim as the standard seems to be 30 feet and 167 is pretty deep! But I've gotten it wet (even submerged for a few seconds) numerous times without a problem. The jewelry clasp could be a little more secure as over the years it is more sensitive to coming undone--hence the reason I most likely lost it! But it's been tugged at while being worn and used to always stay on no problem. You can take out the links to fit it to your wrist, too. And it rarely spins around. Where you put the watch face, the face stays; it doesn't pull your arm hair or snag your clothes either. It does have rather sharp edges on the outside of the band which has unfortunately minimally scratched people depending on how it's rubbed them, myself included. But I'm pretty active with a small boy & dogs, so my usage may not necessarily be typical. But if it can stand up to all I put it thru, it's a great watch, indeed!

 "Love Love Love!!!" 2008-08-01
By MAK (Florida)
Love this petite watch. It has the look and feel of a bracelet and you hardly notice the weight on your wrist. I live in FL and with the heat I find it very comfortable to wear. The battery in this watch lasts a long time. I have had mine for over 2 years now. Citizen watches are well made and very reliable in time keeping.

 "Price Fixing???" 2009-01-19
By Barry Van Gerbig (West Palm Beach, FL)
Listen ... this looks like an awesome watch, and I've been looking for one with this type of toughness built in, but it seems like all the top retailers including Amazon.com have it at EXACTLY the SAME PRICE. We know all about "SUGGESTED RETAIL," but it bothers me that in this tough economy it might hint at PRICE FIXING that all these retailers have the watch at $446.25. Remember about ten years ago when many record company labels had to settle a class action lawsuit for price fixing MUSIC CDs??? Just a thought!

 "Nice BIG diver." 2008-09-01
By J. Walker
This watch, and it's steel brother, are commonly known as the Eco-Zilla's. I prefer the titanium version because of it's light weight. The watch is built like a tank. The rubber band doesn't just use spring bars to attach. Each end of the band fits into a machined openings and then then there is a metal ring that screws into the back of the case that secures the band. You aren't going to loose the watch due to a broken spring bar. 5 stars as a tank diving watch.

 "Ultimate tool watch" 2008-07-21
By Gaius Julius Ceasar (Ancient Rome)
I consider this to be the ultimate tool/dive watch. Here is why:



Movement is as robust as they come. It's very specise, gaining about 3 seconds in the last 3 month. Crystal is 5mm Thick. Lume is very bright.



The bezel can be removed and cleaned and the rubber strpa as well. There are 3rd party adapters available for this watch to let you wear it on any strap or bracelet you like. Just google zilla adapters.



I have worn much more expensive watches and not only those watches require EXPENSIVE maintenance, they do not provide anything that this watch doesn't do.

 "This is a Diving Instrument" 2008-04-27
By Elliott (Texas)
Lets not kid ourselves. This is labeled as a watch but it is truely a diving instrument. The size is correct, measuring approx 51mm, but doesn't seem so wide due to it's extreme width; approx 21mm. I personally like the height as this is a divers watch and anyone who buys a "true" diving watch should be expected to wear a rather large timepiece. I'll rate the attributes,1(bad)to 5(good), to help you out, the rest is up to you. Size is a 5, it's a diver's watch! An Omega or Rolex may be water resistant, but not practical when diving. This watch screams business. Lume is a 4. I like the blue, and the fact that it glows for a long time, but just not a bright as some other models that I've experienced. Accuracy is a 5. Eco-drive is great, with little/no maintenance(a lot better than the fluctuations from a spring balance).Ledgeability is a 4. You can tell what time it is from across the room. In fact, the minute hand, with contrasting orange flouresence seems 3-D and seems to jump out of the watch. The date is the minus here, as it is a very small window and easily obstructed by the hands(even the second hand?) Construction is a 4. I have the Ti version with the rubber strap, which is light, but would have liked a quick-clasp rather than a "large" buckle. I think the bracelet version would have been a real issue since the lug width is approx 31mm, and would look big on anyone's wrist. I love the watch, and it receives a lot of feedback when worn. Again, the more accurate description of this item should be a "diving instrument" rather than a watch, hence it's nickname "eco-zila". The Mineral crystal left me questioning at first, but you'll find that it is extremely protected by the castlated bezel. The bezel has little gutters to let the water drain from the crystal? Sapphire is alway the choice, but should not be an issue for this watch as the mineral version seems very protected. Hope this helps you. This is a great addition to any collection, or someone with an inferiority complex. Cheers!

 "Heavy, man." 2007-07-01
By Dan D. Mish (Talent, OR.)
This is an excellent watch, and matches the quality of watches costing much more. As the other reviewer stated, this watch does NOT have a helium release as the discription says. However, I do not know what model he does have because the bevel IS "sculpted"[which, by the way, makes it easy to turn] Pay close attetion to the specifics, because the watch is big, heavy, and thick. Overall, this watch looks good and performs well at exactly what it is made for. I highly recommend this watch.

Great, fashionable watch.



This watch has luminous hands and dial so you can see the time at night which is not mentioned in the Amazon description.



Band is a flexible band but it is a different type of flexible than the traditional and fits snug but not tight and doesn't pull hairs.



For the money this watch is hard to beat.

 "Birthday Watch" 2010-04-02
By M. Goza
Accurate watch that looks great on the wrist and wears well. Not as large as the Orient it replaced, which has turned out to be a benefit- less scuffing. Followed the direction for proper charging the first three days, and have not needed to worry about anything except wearing it.



I would recommend this watch for the person who needs a multi-use watch, or one that can go from work to coaching to workout to dinner. Of course does not have stop watch functions nor will be perfect with tux, but certainly will range from the burrito shop to church.



Only issue is researched online for about two weeks thinking I found a strong set price through Amazon. Two weeks later it was discounted $50.00, and I still need a jeweler to resize. Next time I will go to a local jewelry store for more consistent though higher pricing.

 "Wrist Watch Review" 2009-11-07
By James W. Pixley (Corona, CA United States)
I received this very nice Citizen watch as a gift, and it's a beauty! It's heavy, and features the new Citizen Eco Drive. Light enters the watch through the crystal and dial, and hits a solar cell. The solar cell converts the light to energy, which runs the watch. No batteries of any kind are needed.



The dial is a midnight blue, with radium hands. The watch will look good with just about anything, and is attractive. Masculine, yet not gaudy or gadget-laden.



Also, it's nice to be wearing an analog watch with a sweep second hand, again.
