Good pictures here

Eco-Drive means the watch is solar powered, it has a rechargeable battery.
Reports from members in previous deals say that the rechargeable battery is still working in their older eco-drives after 10 years or more.

      Haven't you been after a deal on that model for a while?

      I got the black one from this deal. It's a very nice watch, but I love dive watches anyway.

      • sky blu on 10/02/2018 - 09:39

        Good memory. Yes but since I got my first automatic dress watch it's more suitable for work. This is a great price but I am still finding reasons to justify spending the money.

        It's 43mm but it wears small doesn't it?

        • WatchNerd on 10/02/2018 - 09:42
          +1

          Yes 43mm, I measured it when posting the deal. I wear this more than my Seiko SKX007, but that's probably because it's always working & is on a rubber strap.

        • sky blu on 10/02/2018 - 10:33

          @WatchNerd: What's the SKX007 diameter and thickness? Looks smaller than the Promaster.

          So does the Promaster wear small on the wrist, and does it feel bulky overall, with the diver rubber strap?

        • WatchNerd on 10/02/2018 - 10:52
          +1

          There isn't much in it - the Seiko SKX007 appears to be slightly smaller at 42mm, but the Promaster feels smaller & lighter on the wrist because it has 19mm lugs (Seiko 22mm lugs) and a rubber strap. My Seiko has a SS bracelet.

          They don't feel bulky to me, but that's because it's mainly all I wear, unless I'm working, then I'm wearing my favourite massive China Cheapo - Skmei 1134.

      Well, the question there is really more "solar/battery vs mechanical", isn't it?

      I've had eco drive solar for over 13 year and still going …. nice thing is never need to open seals for battery change and quartz means only need to set to daylight savings in regards to crown seal wear and tear ….. dive watch you want waterproof and not have to pay for a service.

        • sky blu on 10/02/2018 - 10:48

          You bought previously, or you just bought on this deal - both colours?

    I've had my Casio MDV-106-1A for a few years now and I find it very comfortable. It's about $75.

      I own one too and have posted it in the past when Amazon would ship it here.
      It's an awesome watch for the money, nothing else really comes close if you want a 200m quartz dive watch with a screw down crown.

      • sky blu on 10/02/2018 - 12:52
        +1

        Let me know if it ever happens again.

        44mm though, how does it wear?

        • Daabido on 10/02/2018 - 12:54
          +1

          I have a thick wrist and it sits beautifully.

        • WatchNerd on 10/02/2018 - 13:27
          +1

          My wrist is almost 7 inches and it looks and feels fine to me.
          If someone asked me to find them a quartz dive watch for around $100 or slightly higher I would still recommend this.

  • sky blu on 10/02/2018 - 12:56

    WatchNerd, the Citizen Promaster or Casio MDV-106-1A? Since you have both, which one is heavier and which 'feels' better when worn?

    • WatchNerd on 10/02/2018 - 13:05
      +1

      They feel very similar in weight and even if one was slightly heavier it shouldn't be an issue, because you don't even feel them on your wrist after wearing a watch so often.

      The Casio is close enough to 45mm, has a lower build quality, hopeless lume & isn't solar, so those points and the price should be the deciding factor between the two.

      I like wearing both, but I guess you always feel better wearing a more expensive watch.

      Kind of - When the battery is getting low the second hand skips a second to let you know it needs some sunlight

      • [Deactivated] on 10/02/2018 - 13:28

        It get s charged with sunlight? Wow…

        • The Vat on 10/02/2018 - 19:35

          If it's like my Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster just leave it in the sun for a few hours once a month or so and you'll be fine. My Pulsar PX solar's the same.

    https://www.jomashop.com/tissot-watch-t0624301705700.html Which one better for the value？

    • PJC on 10/02/2018 - 15:58

      The Promaster has mineral crystal and is rated WR 200m so fine for diving. The Tissot has sapphire crystal and is rated WR 100m so fine for swimming not proper diving.

      • yuisakas on 10/02/2018 - 16:31

        Which one will be easier care and daily wear？

        • PJC on 10/02/2018 - 17:46
          +1

          The Tissot is a particularly good price discovered by Member ilikeit but being an Automatic, it will one day need servicing, which rarely costs below $150 nowadays, though you could learn to DIY. It may not need a service for 20 years or more. There are many reports of an Eco-Drive giving over 20 years service, but they too can eventually stop functioning. The Tissot is much more likely to become a family heirloom.

    Just saw the jomashop link above and went through it.

    Pulled the trigger on this watch https://www.jomashop.com/citizen-watch-bl8140-55e.html

    $262.50 USD delivered with join up $20 USD discount code which they email when you get onto their page.

    Great looking watch. A replacement for a Promaster Eco-Drive which I have had for 8+ yrs, which recently broke down because I pulled the crown too hard and yanked it all the way out. Have no idea how much it cost to repair (Watch nerd-any experience on this. May have to take it to a local citizen repair shop to find out). The feature that I really wanted was perpertual calendar which will remove the need to change the date every 2nd month.

    Also looked at this one https://www.jomashop.com/citizen-watch-at4008-51e.html which is not bad at $299 USD + delivery but not sure if the atomic time correction feature would work in Australia being away from US/London radio transmission (would it work for the other radio transmission sources located in Japan?). Looks really nice though.
