Perfect Not Shiny Not Cheap- looks gorgeous. Links give it sturdy, cool look. Size is terrific. Never needs winding-finally!
Perfect Not Shiny Not Cheap- looks gorgeous. Links give it sturdy, cool look. Size is terrific. Never needs winding-finally!
This is a great everyday watch, especially if you live in an area of temperature extremes like I do. I like that the dial is very legible at a glance, which gives it a modern field watch vibe. It is a larger, heavier watch that might not work well on small wrists. The monocoque case and super titanium coating makes it tough and the overall design is attractive. What prevents the watch from getting five stars is the very small, almost useless date window and the fact that it runs faster than my other Citizen Eco Drive watches. Otherwise, if you're looking for a tough watch that's attractive and works for daily wear in the office, as well as for recreational activities after hours, this could be right for you.
Perfect watch for me. One thing I can complain is that the date is too small to read.
Best Watch Citizen Has Made!
I now have this watch in blue and black. I believe this is the best "grab and go" watch Citizen have ever made. Please reissue this with the GMT Eco Drive movement you used in the Marine GMT.
Outstanding watch. Bring this back!
I love this watch. I'm glad I bought it when I did. This watch deserves to be around for a long time. Perhaps a titanium version to save weight, and options for a nylon band as well.
The watch
An excellent, elegant and sturdy watch! Sapphire crystal is awesome, precise movement, virtually eternal battery, glowing all night long. Looks, feel, function. Unless you’re someone that has to make a statement with your screaming $$$ watch, this Citizen is as great of a taste proof as it can be! Thank you for designing and engineering this watch. It’s also very affordable.
Promaster Tough - Simply the Best
My husband loves this watch. He purchased a Citizen watch 20+ years ago and cracked the lens. All he wanted for his birthday was another one like the old one. I never expected to find one even similar, but here it is. Made my day!
My husband couldn't be happier!
Finally!!! A "tough" timepiece that doesn't look like a child's Tonka truck. I searched for hours upon hours to find a watch that would both stand up to my husband's hard wear and meet his criteria for a simple design. He is extremely happy with this model, loves the weight and everything about it. The Eco-Drive is an added plus and he is looking forward to having and loving this watch for a long time.
Best Watch!
Have owned Rolex, Breitling, Rado, Ebe,l. and Cyma watches. This is the most accurate and comfortable I have had!
Outstanding value
Bought one for myself. So pleased I bought two additional for my sons. Value lies in durability and versatility. At home in the water, in the office, and appropriate for every social event short of a black tie affair. Can easily dress up this watch with one or more leather bands or a NATO strap. Only criticism is that the date window is very difficult to read and is a distraction. One of the virtues of eco drive is the ability to set it and forget it. Except for the five months that have less than 31 days, when the date needs adjusting, one could set and forget the screw down crown except if one lives in a part of the world that observes daylight savings time. My suggestion to Citizen would be to drop the date window and consider issuing dials with Arabic numerals in addition to the current baton style. I’d probably buy another one.
Promaster Tough is MAGIC!
Truly a remarkable watch! Tough as nails and more accurate than my Rolex - quartz after all. Eco-Drive is an amazing technology. Best "field watch" or every day watch you could find. Do yourself a favor and BUY THIS WATCH!
Promaster Tough
This watch is perfect for the everyday. Stylish and under the radar but still built tough.
