Background: I've had expensive high end dive watches in the past, but have been using a Smart watch for a while now. However, charging every evening can be a pain if you're on the move all the time and they're not the most rugged of watches. So I decided I needed a solid watch, rugged, preferably a divers watch, but I didn't want to spend £2k! I narrowed my choice down to two Citizen models and in the end went for the black faced Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster 200m (BN0150-28E).
I love it!!
It's a great weight. You know it's there but it's not too heavy. The case is 43mm so looks the part. The design is classic divers watch, hence I went for the black face. It keeps imacculate time and the luminosity is as good as watches that cost 20 times the price.
Talking of price, did I tell you that it only cost me £145? Yes, you read that correctly, £145. You cannot get a better watch for that money, certainly not one with the specification that I wanted.
Mine came with a rubber strap which I'll keep for diving. But I've bought a 007 strap for day to day and a nice stainless steel bracelet for dressing it up. A watch for all occasions and yes all for just £145. :)
