Citizen Promaster Diver Men's Solar Watch with Rubber Strap

Nice watch

I have had this watch for a little over a week now and am exceptionally happy with the purchase. Being a bit of a watch fanatic, I am very critical when it comes to the little details. The second hand of this time piece precisely matches to the markers on the face. The rotating bezel is crisp and precise as well, with no clockwise movement when set. The strap is ridged however will take the shape of your wrist very quickly. I received the watch in a completely powered down state, however this started working within seconds after exposing it to a artificial light source, however at a degraded function. Exposing it to natural light for a short time made it 100% functional. The precision of time is amazing, it has not lost or gained a second since set over a week ago.

Mis à part le guichet de date minuscule, je trouve cette montre très attachante ! Depuis mon achat, elle ne quitte plus mon poignet, même la nuit. Magnifique !

This is a fantastic diver watch for the price. Solid build, clear face, perfect time keeping. I had previously owned the 'classic' Seiko SKX007 but personally prefer this model from Citizen. Pros: The colour blue works really well, giving the watch a unique look when compared to a majority of divers (that often opt for a black dial). Excellent attention to design and detailing - the orange edge on the minute hand, the positioning of both the date and crown at 4 o'clock, the reflective silver that edges the hour markers and hour hand that increases legibility both in and out of the water. The watch has a nice, solid weight to it without being too heavy on the wrist. Cons: The strap is gimmicky. It features a printed depth guide table that obviously has practical uses but for day-to-day use it looks far better put on a different strap. Crown & Buckle produce a heavy duty NATO strap in blue that matches very nicely. The case is a little boxy (for my taste, at least). There's no curvature from the bottom of the case to the sides. It's just a sheer 45 degree angle. The Seiko SKX007 has a much more organic case shape as do some other Citizens such as the Promaster Tough (also known as the Ray Mears) that seems more fitting for a diver. This isn't an issue with the watch, just a personal preference. Overall, this watch deserves serious consideration from anyone looking for an affordable diver as it offers excellent quality for the money and I would have happily paid more for mine.

Muy buen reloj

Molto bello. L'ho restituito perché la cassa è 44 mm e un po' grande per il mio polso.

The watch was just what I wanted and I feel it looks good too.
