Citizen Men's BM8240-03E Eco-Drive Black Leather Watch Review

This is an excellent watch. It is thinner than I had thought it might be, given it is solar powered. I would have preferred a smooth finish black band instead of the cheaper pieced look, but overall it I really enjoy it. The only other thing I would have liked was if the hands illuminated in the dark.

Citizen Men's BM8475-00X Eco-Drive Military Black Plated Steel Canvas Strap Watch Review

I considered this purchase from the viewpoint of an already satisfied Eco-Drive owner. My original Citizen features a titanium case and strap and is great for business attire. But I wanted a less formal watch for casual wear. This watch caught my eye, and it was love at first sight. The watch arrived after about five days, as advertised. Upon opening the box, I was taken aback by the size. This is a large-face watch, and I was expecting something about the size of my titanium case. I was considering returning it, then decided to give it a try and sell it on eBay if I didn't like it. As it turns out, I got used to it after a couple of days. The canvas strap became a little more pliable, which helped the watch stay in place better on my wrist, and the discomfort of the band disappeared. Now I can focus on enjoying the big face and oversized luminous digits, which glow extraordinarily bright when exposed to a light source at night. Like my original Eco-Drive, this watch keeps excellent time. So far I have not detected a single second's variance between checks and settings. If you order this watch, keep in mind that the face is larger than most and that you'll have to be patient while the canvas strap gets pliable.

Ideal for everyday wear, the Citizen Men's Eco Drive Strap Watch features a casual, canvas watchband with buckle clasp that's sturdy and durable. The metal grommets on the watchband add a unique touch. The clean, black dial displays large Arabic numeral indexes at three, six, nine, and 12 o'clock along with an analog day and date display. The simple dial is bordered by a black ion-plated stainless steel bezel and case. Powered by Japanese quartz movement and fueled by natural and artificial light, the Citizen Men's Eco Drive Strap Watch is ecologically friendly and functions without a battery. Plus, it's water resistant to 330 feet (100 meters).

Citizen Men's AT0200-05E Eco-Drive Chronograph Canvas Watch Review

Citizen Men's AT0200-05E Eco-Drive Chronograph Canvas Watch
Average Reviews:

I upgraded to the eco-drive from a watch that recharged by wrist motion. So far I'm a lot happier with the eco-drive. It holds a charge a lot longer, so it's not a problem to leave it unworn for a day or two. I didn't like the green military style band on this one, but it was easy to swap for a leather 20mm band. The stock band was a tad small for my wrist. I would expect a lot of men would need to swap it. The numbers look big in the picture, and they're big on the watch. I like the big numbers, others might not.
May 2008 Update:
I still like this watch as much as the day it arrived! It works perfectly, never runs out of battery and looks good. For those of you who haven't paid for a decent watch, you might not realize you're missing out on a good quality glass / crystal face. Mine still is scratch free. The watch looks pretty much brand new, even though I wear it every day.

Keep time with military precision while adding a unique edge to your wardrobe with the Citizen Eco-Drive Men's Chronograph Canvas Watch. Featuring the clean look and the rugged dependability of a stainless steel case and bezel, this timepiece relies on the unique Citizen Eco-Drive movement system, so you never need to replace its battery. Eco-Drive is an advanced, technical system that uses a thin solar panel under the dial to convert light energy from any source into electrical energy used to run your watch. Also playing a key role in this unique system is a special energy storage cell that greatly increases the efficiency and dependability of using light as a power source. As an added benefit, Eco-Drive power doesn't utilize the harmful chemicals contained in traditional batteries, so it's an excellent environmental choice as well.
The watch features a black dial with easy-to-read Arabic numerals in white, a convenient date window at four o'clock, a slim second tracker on the outer dial, and three subdials that provide chronograph functionality along with the ability to track hours on a 24-hour scale. The dial is further offset with luminescent minute and hour hands and a sweeping red seconds hand. Even the cool canvas band on this watch offers ultra-detailed construction. In addition to featuring a sturdy buckle clasp that relies on steel-reinforced eyelets, the band is backed with leather, which provides added durability and results in a pleasant feel against your wrist. This versatile men's watch is water resistant to 330 feet.

*Charging information: Functions of this watch may not work correctly if the watch is not charged, or charged properly. Please see the full Technical Information.
To set the time *(refer to full-setting instructions here: Manual ):
Pull the crown out to the time correction position when the second hand has reached the 0 seconds position.
Turn the crown to set the time. The 24-hour hand moves in conjunction with the hour hand. Pay attention to AM and PM when setting the time.

Mens Expedition Camper Watch-BROWN- Review

Mens Expedition Camper Watch-BROWN-
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This watch is a real deal. It is rugged and dependable, waterproof, and very comfortable. It's very lightweight and is noiseless, so you don't have to worry about a jingle alerting whatever quarry you're hunting. The watch is attached to the band via an elastic shock-strap that prevents sudden impacts from ripping it off the band. All in all, a very effective design.
The "quick date" function assumes there are 31 days in every month, so after the shorter months you need to adjust forward a day or two for it to be correct. This is no big deal, and is common to most analog watches with this feature.
My personal experiences with this watch have taken it hunting in all corners of the backwoods of Kentucky, as well as backpacking through the smokies and the titons. It has proven to be extraordinarily tough. I had had problems with other watches with the watch coming separated from the band after a tug or strong bump (such as taking off a rucksack and having it's strap catch on the watch bezel), but the elastic loaded shock attachment on this Timex seems to have eliminated those problems.
The only down side to this watch that I have found is that the bright-white watch face is quite noticeable at a distance in the woods. So if you plan to take this watch hunting then make sure it's under a sleeve cuff or it could quite easily give you away. Otherwise the white face contributes to readability, even for those whose eyesight isn't quite what it used to be.
If you're looking for an analog, easy to read watch that is tough enough to match your lifestyle, then this just might be the pick.

I like the clean, aeronautical "instrument panel" look of Bell & Ross watches but don't like their square cases or price tags. This Citizen has similar kind of styling. It's comfortable to wear, just the right size for me and easy to read. I like the bright blue lume as well. The canvas strap is nice and thick and has backing that appears to be leather. Very happy with this purchase.

I used to be a Timex watch person. But the cheapness of the straps and the constant demand of replacing batteries grew old and annoying. Then someone told me about ECO drive watches.
This is one of 4 that I own now. I have dressy ones, ones with metal bracelets, but I love this one the most.
The face is easy to read, the leather strap holds up to dousing with water and doesn't dissolve, and the crystal face has not scratched despite being banged into things all the time.
Best of all, no more running out of batteries. No one can go wrong with this watch. My eyes are too old to read the date function, but my watch keeps me on time, all the time. I will never get any other brand of watches any more.

Citizen Men's BM8180-03E Eco-Drive Canvas Strap Watch
Average Reviews:

I ordered this watch from Amazon and it arrived before the estimated delivery date. I love the watch, and it looks much better in person than in pictures on the web. Quality is very good and the hands line up perfectly. The luminova is evenly applied and lasts longer, actually all the way through the night, which I didn't think would be the case. The only feature I don't like is the canvas band, which I found uncomfortable. I'm sure it's fine for others, but still a black leather band for less than (...)(any jewelry store or online store) compliments the watch very well, and it no longer looks like a 'weekend watch'. One small point about the Eco-drive that some other reviews I've read overlooked: Citizen Eco-drive models DO have a battery. The solar cell stores energy in a rechargeable mangenese-titanium battery. The battery should last a very long time according to Citizen engineers who project that even after 20 years the battery should retain 80% of recharge capacity (on their website), but only time will tell... no pun intended. Speaking of time, the watch is pretty accurate. I've had the watch for one month and during that time it has lost less than one second when compared to the US national time (www.nist.gov). In sum: this is a very well constructed watch that I feel is worth the money.
