Only finishing up hs so still pretty poor
It’s an Amazon black Friday deal right now for 137. Check it out.
Eco Drives are great. I’m sure you’d be happy with that watch. I would consider whether you would like an automatic watch more. Once I started buying automatic watches with sweeping hands I haven’t bought another Quartz watch since. You can find some great Seiko watches in your price range. Check some of them out and best of luck in your search.
Check that it’s sapphire and also check the thickness. Some citizens are thicc bois that don’t slider under most cuffs.
Also check out prices on OfficialWatchDeals on Ebay.
My only gripe with my eco drive is that “CITIZEN” is written on the crystal, not the face of the watch. Couldn’t tell from all the pictures, was a disappointment when I got it. It’s not this model though, one of the star wars ones.
This was actually my first watch. I really enjoyed it for a while. It’s definitely VERY sporty looking so hard to wear outside of casual.
My only comment would be to seriously consider if you think you want to “get into” watches. Because if you think that might happen, eventually you’re really going to want to go to mechanical watches and this piece might feel underwhelming and you might regret spending the money.
If that sounds like a possibility, save up a little more for a Seiko or an Orient. You’ll thank yourself. There are reasonably nice Seiko 5 models that you can snag for a couple hundred bucks and will be more versatile and reasonably high quality for the money.
my eco drive is 23 years old and still accurate AF. That is a sharp looking watch and would be pretty versatile. Go for it.
Go and get it. A good and good looking watch from a respected company
Honestly man; I used to have a few Seiko and Citizens that I got rid of; had you posted something like this maybe early last year. I would have just given you all of mine.
That’s a nice looking watch, I dig it.
I have a bunch of watches, some of them very nice. I’ve been thinking of picking up an Eco Drive for the no-worry factor. It’ll never need a service or a battery.
This is a handsome one; I was looking at a similar model called the Brycen that has a rotating dive bezel, but then I found out the bezel on that model doesn’t actually rotate. Why, Citizen? Why? Anyway, this is a nice watch and a solid choice.
Citizens are great watches. Unpretentious but respectable.
That will serve you well… eco drives are dope and this looks fun and sporty. You can have some fun with this trying out some different bands. Might look pretty cool on a black band
10/10 great looking watch!
It looks like it wears really large
