Thanks OP! These Eco-Drive watches practically pay for themselves, you never have to buy another watch battery again.
- idonotknowwhy on 18/10/2018 - 22:59
  
  The $52 auto watch in the other deal does the same thing :)
  - macrocephalic on 18/10/2018 - 23:18
    
    There's a place for both. Automatics are interesting, ecodrives are accurate and reliable.
    
    I do wonder why they continue to use mineral glass in such rugged design watches though.
    - garage sale on 18/10/2018 - 23:49

      it seems that sapphire is scratch resistant but brittle, mineral glass is easier to scratch but also less brittle so doesn’t break as easily …..for a dive watch you want to be able to take more knocks and not break rather than scratch resistance ….it’s not for cost cutting …………..seilko have a hybrid glass that has characteristics of both.
    - butter on 19/10/2018 - 14:19
      
      Agreed. I'd never buy an automatic watch for day-to-day use though.
      
      Granted I wore my SKX007 for years but, maybe because I'm OC, it always annoyed me to think my time wasn't 100% accurate.
      - xoom on 19/10/2018 - 18:14
        
        @butter: Ironically with automatic watches you would have to wear it daily or it stops. Unlike solar watches. You can get away with not wearing for months.

        @idonotknowwhy: Eh, that first one looks like it may be of cheap Chinese build quality to my eyes man. I consider them more worth around $35. For them to be of that price I guess there's a saying that goes around which I noticed applies to most things in life "you get what you pay for". I'll give it to you though the last two look nice & casual, I'd wear them. I wouldn't bother wearing the first three, but that's just my opinion. Wot even is a Cadisen, some cheap chinese Gearbest brand?

        @NeedWifeForVeryCheap: You obviously don't know much about them then. Those Cadisen watches use either a Seiko movement (from the Seiko 5 series) or a Miyota movement (Citizen). Many of them have a sapphire glass, and have at least as good, or better water resistance than their Japanese counterparts.
        
        $35 is a joke, you can't actually buy the Miyota or Seiko watch movements for that price.

        tonyjzx on 19/10/2018 - 17:03
        
        @Fullhalter: They are just made up brands that originates from a random factory in Shenzen. Who really cares? Its a $35 watch. You either accept the funny name or go buy a brand.
        
        I personally bought brands like Guanquin and Star King etc. Its hard to beat the quality of the watches for the money.
        
        They go in rotation with my other watches.
        
        I have no seen a design I like from Cadisen so no buy from me.
        
        Fullhalter on 19/10/2018 - 19:24
        
        @tonyjzx: I'm on your side mate. No one knows Campanola, but it's Citizen's highest end branding. The same goes with Chinese no names. It matters little.
        
        Life after SEIKOLEX is boring. And believe it or not, many WISs even prefer quirky Chinese watches than high end shopping centre watches, no matter how good.

Thanks WatchNerd!

I just ended up pulling the trigger & purchased my first "real watch" the Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster Gold Trim, SS Bracelet BN0194-57E for $249.00 as my Black G-Shock is starting to feel a little childish at 25 years old… I can't believe Shiels sells it for $650 compared to $249 as well! Highway robbery wow.. I'm assuming these are what they refer to as "grey market" watches? How else could they be so cheap? As long as they're legit I'm happy :)

When it arrives I can assure y'all that I'll be rolling around like I've hit the jackpot & am Pablo Escobar (especially after I used to think I was the shit rocking around in my replica China Rolex 10 years ago).

Heck, I might even take a trip down to Jupiter's/The Star with my new fancy watch & hunt out some good old Cougars down Atrium Bar to try impress..they're going to think I'm a millionaire. Just hope that I don't come across any snobby Seiko enthusiasts along the way.. Although I would like my next watch to be a Seiko with Diamonds such as this https://www.starbuy.com.au/seiko-le-grand-sport-diamond-stee…

Thanks for introducing me to StarBuy, Kudos to you mate =)

  StarBuy aren't grey stock - full international and australian warranty as usually provided by citizen, seiko etc. They only have 1 shop front in the country, do most of their business online and probably do a bit of haggling with citizen and seiko etc by buying a lot of units to get prices down. Have bought from them many times and mostly have received watch in 2-3 days. I'll never buy a citizen or seiko anywhere before checking starbuy.

I've had the first one (BN0150-10E) for a year or so.

Its a really good beater watch but the band is feral on so many levels.

I ended up putting a Bonetto Cinturini 285 band on it and haven't looked back.

Its got 20mm bands so make sure you get the right one.

I have these bands on all my watches (including my SKX) and they are so bloody comfortable (and smell like vanilla!!)

These watches may cost more than other 200m watches, but these are iso certified; you're getting a real dive watch:

"ISO 6425 – Divers' watches international standard. This standard was introduced in 1996. ISO 6425 defines such watches as: A watch designed to withstand diving in water at depths of at least 100 m and possessing a system to control the time. Diving watches are tested in static or still water under 125% of the rated (water) pressure, thus a watch with a 200-metre rating will be water resistant if it is stationary and under 250 metres of static water."
- terrys on 27/10/2018 - 10:21
  
  Cool - as pressure increases by 1 Atmosphere ever 10 meters, this means you could safely wash your hands wearing it @ 200 meters…

Quite disappointed with the seller.
The watch came in non-original box without any protective film to show as new.

I wish I knew these issues before buying.

  That's not good.
  
  Mine came in a proper box with a manual etc.

  Did you receive the Citizen warranty?

  @ Orin Hi there. Could you please send us an image of the box that you received the watch in so we can see. Re the protective covering, Citizen (or for that matter Seiko or G-Shock) do not apply protective covering to all the models.
  
  Awaiting your reply on [email protected]
  
  Thanks

    The box was a cardboard box with a completely different model number printed on it. I am in transit heading overseas, below is the image of same box I received.

    That's an image to the box I received.
    
    The original should be either an air tank or in a plastic black hard case.
    
    Very disappointed as I was looking forward to the opening of the box.

      Every market gets their own box and Australia did not get that one. The box that you received is the only box Citizen in Australia have released. The warranty and the instructions manual would also have been included with the parcel.

        @StarBuy: That is the same type of box I received my new Citizen BM8475-34E from Starbuy in a couple of years ago.
        
        Can't say it caused me any angst.

      If you were that disappointed you could have contacted Starbuy when you first received the parcel. I think you're the first to complain about a genuine Citizen box not being genuine on here.

I did receive the warranty paper though.
