I wanted an affordable blue dial diver, and after searching around, decided this Citizen was the one. I'm not disappointed. Main reason I picked it is because of the shape of the markers, being rectangular. I also like the large size, fits well on my wrist. Build quantity and finish are excellent. I like the Eco-Drive system because I don't have to worry about wearing the watch every two-three days to keep it running. A single day's exposure to daylight will keep it running for months. I did change the bracelet to a strap as soon as I got it.

This is a great watch! It works very well, with the Eco-Drive, and the movement is very accurate. It looks nice and has a dress watch appearance, but is also built in a rugged manner. The date is fairly visible, but less so on the double digit days. The markers on the dial are very visible and both hands and the markers have good luminosity. The band was much more comfortable than I expected. The band is longer and watch links can be taken out to accommodate smaller wrists. I have about a 8 inch wrist but like a 8.5 inch band and I needed to take out two links to achieve that. Some claim the watch band is cheap because it is light aluminum and doesn't have screws in the links. However, the light band looks good and it's nice not to have the extra weight on the wrist. In regard to pins instead of screws, screws almost always come at a higher price point and putting in screws would have raised the price. In all, I actually like it more than I thought I would and use it at work and home. I like the Eco-Drive a lot and solar in general more than regular batteries and automatics as the batteries are a bother to replace and the automatics are inaccurate (unless you are paying ten grand), large and prone to need work. Great watch that is fun to wear. Read full review

The watch came in the Citizen packaging without a cosmetic flaw. The length of the band needed to be adjusted but that was easy enough. My only complaint was when the watch was first received the battery clearly was not charged as I lost some two hours over the course of a day. Luckily the next day was very sunny and I left it outside for most of the day. As of now it seems to be working perfectly. I am certainly enjoying this purchase and would recommend you to anyone needing a high quality watch for a very fair price

Great watch however consistency in quality is hit and miss. Had to send first one back due to crown issues and have read of others having issues with loose wobbly bezel, hands out of alignment, off center bezel pip etc. Unfortunate that quality must suffer in such a beautiful watch. I recommend the watch but expect the possibility of having to send it back. 50 - 50 chance, hence 4 stars..

This is a beautiful and excellent quality Eco Drive Solar DIVE watch. The reason I'm highlighting DIVE, is because the watch is relatively big and heavy, since it is rated as a true and real dive watch. (200 Meters) I love this watch....it is one of my favorite dive watches. If you had the chance to see the blue face dial in the sun....you would understand why this watch is so hard to find and mostly sold out!

Solid end links, ISO certified, good bushing with mirror polished accents, nicely executed applied numerals, nice lume... If you dont mind going quartz this watch is one of the best buys you can make in the diver category. Case and dial are as good as pricier offering from other brands

I have the black eco diver with rubber and always wanted the blue w steel. Love the idea of pulling it out of the jewelry box and time and date are correct. My other watches are getting ignored. I’m solar all the time now. You don’t need to wind/shake and never need to replace the battery and send out to reseal. Great watch!

I like this watch for the eco drive technology, and their water resistances, even although I'm not exactly fond of the style. Still a very nice watch that I will wear for a very very nice price, it's everything I need it to be and then some, thank you official watch deals, I'll be back!

Good brilliance on hands in dark. Watch seems well built like not having to worry about a battery down the road. Have yet to take it to the beach and river but sure it will hold up its ISO rated so hoping wont let me down. Great watch
