Stylish and practical this CITIZEN Eco-Drive Chronograph is a perfect addition to your watch wardrobe. The stainless steel case and bracelet are complimented by the charcoal grey dial with orange accents. It also gives you luminous hands and markers, a 1/5 second chronograph measuring up to 60 minutes, 12/24 hour time and bold piston style push buttons. The watch is 100m water resistant.

A simple, yet revolutionary concept: a watch that never needs a battery. Citizen eco-drive technology harnesses the power of light from any natural or artificial light source and converts it into energy which is stored in a permanently rechargeable lithium-ion cell. It recharges continuously in any kind of light to run forever.

Any of these watch manufacturers realise that colours are going to severely limit their appeal?

I just bought this via Argos a half hour ago, picking up tomorrow. Then I came here. :disappointed:

How does one get the quidco 10% ? It's showing 1.1% for me.

It's OK, no problem at all, it is not a bad watch at all, it was just bit a shiny for my liking, buttons etc. Thank you for your message though.

Picked one up today, I would say it looks exactly like the picture, hoped it may look a little different as suggested. I have two eco drives which feel more solid than this, they were more expensive so not unexpected. I just wanted a watch for general use but for me it is too shiny so I am returning it. However, the movement will be good, a lot better than many watches at the price so I am adding heat but if you do not like the look of it you may be wasting your time.

So sorry that you dont like the look, for me its one of the best watch, the dial face has a deep which looks like a more expensive watch than really it is.

I bought this 99.99 at Argos few weeks ago... Any price match option for me?

Best bet is to buy again and return with the old receipt

What's the face diameter on this? Got very slim wrists so most current guys watches don't suit me.

Benno1uk to thel33ter

26 Dec 16 #44

It's around 42mm. It is pretty large but strangely seems to look ok and I have fairly thin wrists.

How much lighter is a titanium version? Just picked up mine from Argos and while I like the design a lot, it feels a bit heavy to me. It would be fine for a night out, but not sure for day-to-day wearing.

Leonidas85

26 Dec 16 #41

Good luck with it mate :wink: Believe me this watch is a bonker for this price. Especially with Quidco! :smile:

That must be why they produce dozens of different models with various designs.

i dont hate the watch at all but still the orange color ruins it for me a bit

Rickardo to andreasuk

26 Dec 16 #21

Nearly all watches I've been interested in look different (usually better) in the flesh, so don't rely on the images.

Spelling colour like the Americans ruins it for me

Are your wrists that fat you have to soap it on?

Benno1uk

26 Dec 16 #35

By the way for those questioning the orange strip, I think it gives the watch a striking and original touch without looking tacky.

Ok, ok, wasn't arguing, just saying, that's all.

Bought for my sons 18th.

Just hope his wrists aren't too skinny for such a solid, heavy watch.

Tried it on myself and it looks magnificent for the price tag.

Thanks OP - I picked one of these up this morning. It's a really nice looking watch. I've never had an analogue chronograph watch before (usually having digital Gshocks). I like it very much. The only thing I find odd is that the second hand stays still unless in stopwatch mode. I know it's normal for a chronograph but it seems odd somehow.

If you prefer titanium this Citizen is worth considering (assuming the design appeals). I got the last one in stock this morning so any further orders have a waiting period. £299 RRP and average retail from most outlets at the moment £220 to £240. Also a 5% off code is offered via a tab in the bottom right hand corner on the page against your next order but it worked for me on this first order so brought the price down to under £142.

Great price for titanium

Outstanding deal for a Citizen Eco-Drive. If you have never owned one of these watches you will not want to go back to one where you have to swap the batteries every year or two. All you have to do to keep it running is not to leave it in a drawer for weeks on end.

26 Dec 16 #29

i belive you are right..uve talked me into it....u should go into sales...ud do well
im gonna buy one but not in this colour...bargains like this come up sometimes

Great price. I've got two Citizen Ecodrives already otherwise I'd be getting this (still tempted though!).

andreasuk

26 Dec 16 #26

we have a difference of opinion that's all

andreasuk

26 Dec 16 1 #25

I do if it's red or orange..colours won't change even if I put the watch on

Are these titanium strap and body. I find stainless steel a little too cumbersome and heavy.

ThePrince to amdg

26 Dec 16 #24

Comment
It's stainless steel my friend. TBH I'd prefer titanium too but all my previous watches have been stainless steel and I've had no issues with them.

Looking at the reviews on Argos it seems to look much better than the images. They also say it looks more expensive, somewhere around the £300 mark.

Leonidas85's comments above have been helpful. Hence I've reserved one to pick too

kakar125

26 Dec 16 1 #22

Just reserved one and will buy and see if I want keep or return back (not sure how's that red line looks while wearing)

10% Quidco is making this very tempting

Leonidas85

25 Dec 16 #18

the lumination is nice, of course not as strong as a Nite but still good enough to see the time properly. I dont know how long it last, never checked. :smiley:

What is the lume like on this model?

Leonidas85

25 Dec 16 #16

I understand but IMHO the radio control feature is not that important nowadays, because everyone has a smartphone, which always shows the exact time. :smiley: Watches now is much more jewellery than timekeepeing machines :wink:

Well I'm going to be believe you :smiley:

Gone ahead with the reservation. Can't wait to get my hands on it...or in it. 5 year guarantee is quite reassuring.

For me it's hovering between nice and horrible, can't decide.
Good price but I'm a G-Shock.

Leonidas85 to collectorcol

25 Dec 16 #10

I jave several G shocks as well, but this watch is far away from horrible. It looks like a 300 quids one, so just take a try with it. But please leave me one in the store because I want to buy another one or just replace it :laughing:

Leonidas85

25 Dec 16 #9

A simple review... Just buy it. I have several watches from different brands but this one is one of my best. It looks way better in real lofe than in the pictures. This watch looks awesome, its a bargain for this price. Dont hesitate, believe me! :wink:

Not a bad looking watch to be fair, it looks better in the shop. Shame it's quite large?
