    Top notch service from Starbuy. I received my last order with blazing speed. And even more amazingly, the Seiko I bought was fully aligned.

    • roweysvn on 24/06/2019 - 08:43

      Agreed, have bought a few watches from StarBuy now and the dispatch/delivery is fantastic. I wish I could say the same about Seiko's service turnaround time though…

    • tommynolips on 24/06/2019 - 09:00

      what do you mean by "fully aligned"? sorry, i'm a bit of a watch novice

      • tanimaga on 24/06/2019 - 09:23

        He meant fully aligned bezel. Unlike the Swiss, Seikos, especially divers are notorious for not having fully aligned bezels!

      • ilikeit on 24/06/2019 - 13:18

        Seiko has patchy QC. Is not uncommon to have misaligned bezel inserts and dials. The rate of occurrence seems higher than equivalent Swiss and even Chinese pieces.

  • JaxSantiago on 24/06/2019 - 01:22

    Missed out on last week's CA0700-86E offer. Hope there'll be a repeat (or even better pricing!)

      • swings on 24/06/2019 - 15:38

        Same for me, 3 of them and very happy, great value they looks very solid and well built in real.

    • Oneiricer on 26/06/2019 - 15:54

      Anyone know if it is made in Japan?

      • lesterfreamon on 26/06/2019 - 16:30

        Tis not. It's also sold out.

        • Oneiricer on 26/06/2019 - 20:36

          made in china?

          edit: i managed to buy one straight away and it got delivered today. However as it is a gift, i can't open it to check where it is made from. It looks so nice, i may just end up keeping it rather than giving it away!

          • lesterfreamon on 26/06/2019 - 21:13

            @Oneiricer: The box shouldn't be sealed, so no harm taking it out of the box to inspect it.

            That's an almost 100% guarantee you won't be gifting it though…

    The Citizen AW1490-84E is an insanely good price IMO. Eco Drive, Sapphire Crystal and Titanium. Three pretty awesome features.

    • lesterfreamon on 24/06/2019 - 09:55
      +1

      Agreed. 41mm diameter too, so should suit a lot of wrists.

    • Deepchild on 24/06/2019 - 10:16

      My thoughts exactly.

      Will definitely be biting the bullet on this one.

  • badinh on 24/06/2019 - 09:42

    Hi OP,

    Is there any deals for Citizen GMT BJ7111-86L Promaster as before?
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/455821
    https://www.starbuy.com.au/citizen-promaster-titanium-gmt-20…

    By the way, personally I see that Citizen has better performance/price than Seiko. Most of Seiko watches in the list of Starbuy are not utilized with sapphire. What do you think?

    • lesterfreamon on 24/06/2019 - 09:57
      +1

      I'll check in with StarBuy and confirm. It all comes down to the supplier and availability of stock.

      You certainly get a lot more options of sapphire from Citizen, especially under $500 than from Seiko. Titanium too, if you prefer the lighter weight on wrist.

    • lesterfreamon on 24/06/2019 - 13:41

      Confirmed BJ7111-86L will be on sale.

          Not sure about this one. Stock may be unavailable.

  • EightImmortals on 24/06/2019 - 11:03

    Arrrg, decision time. My 20 year old Seiko Kinetic has stopped charging and is due for a service, last time cost around $250. I only pause because it was a birthday present from my wife and has sentimental value…… Or a new citizen with eco-drive?

      I hope you have picked one up. After these are gone, there will be no more available from Seiko.

    • jjjia on 28/06/2019 - 00:47

        While I can appreciate there will always be some who are disappointed that their ideal watch is not on sale, there is nothing to stop you from contacting StarBuy to ask for a deal or when a deal may be coming up.

        They are very responsive and easy to deal with, as many of the positive feedback comments will attest to.

  • Munki on 24/06/2019 - 11:23

    Always upvote Starbuy. Can't fault their service at all.

    • swings on 24/06/2019 - 13:31

      Same for me, got 3 ecodrive since last October from Starbuy, all 3 arrived in 2days, perfect boxing and papers. All 3 watches looking way more premium than their price and photo. Can't reccomend starbuy enough, price was always the best around, with local warranty.

  • [Deactivated] on 24/06/2019 - 13:34

    How long do citizen's eco-drives last when compared to seiko's automatics? Probably going to go for the Citizen AW1490-84E

    • lesterfreamon on 24/06/2019 - 13:42
      +1

      As in charge or lifetime?

      10 months reserve if fully charged.

      • [Deactivated] on 24/06/2019 - 13:46

        Sorry I meant lifetime and general reliability.

          I can only speak for my small collection of three, which I have not owned for longer than 2 years.

          Extremely accurate and comfortable to wear. They do have a low profile so can tuck away nicely under a sleeve and the divers are excellent in the water and on a dressier strap.

          Anyone else care to chime in with long term ownership?

    • Gmann on 24/06/2019 - 13:50

      I've got a CA0021-53E (eco drive, sapphire & titanium) bought in 2010. It gets used most of the week and hasn't had any issues since I bought it. I also rotate with my seiko automatics, the main difference is that the seiko automatics when left unused for a couple of days, is that you have to set the time again. Eco-drives don't have this issue generally.

      • [Deactivated] on 24/06/2019 - 14:18

        …the seiko automatics when left unused for a couple of days, is that you have to set the time again.

        Unless you choose to invest in a watch winder - like an automated shaker-maker.

    • ruddiger on 24/06/2019 - 15:16

      Hey.

      2 citizen Eco drive watches in regular wear.

      BN0000-04H dive watch and a BJ7000-52E nighthawk both bought at the same time approximately 10 years ago and haven't missed a beat.

      Both regularly spent time in the pool/ocean and occasional Scuba use down to 40m at least once each. So far so good. Having said that my seiko orange monster is slightly younger and has been at least as good.

    • [Deactivated] on 26/06/2019 - 19:46

      Cheers all, my Citizen AW1490-84E arrived and it's a beauty…

      That's a particularly good buy @ $199 - Titanium, Sapphire, 41cm (not too big for most).

          Instructions on the Citizen Australia site, not that you'll need them.

          Make sure you keep the endorsed warranty booklet as the warranty travels with the watch (ie: is transferable).

    • lesterfreamon on 24/06/2019 - 20:41
      +1

      Correct. Some models in their ranges offer the choice of both, but more often than not, are Japanese grey import if sold outside Japan ie Seiko 5, Prospex Samurai, Turtle etc.

      Presage series are made in Japan only and are available in all markets.

      An easy to identify J at the end of the model number will flag a made in Japan watch.

  • TimeWaster on 24/06/2019 - 21:26

    Kinda tossing up between the Seiko SRPB99K and the Citizen AW1490-84E, any advise? Or am I on the wrong track altogether? Just looking for something nice and relatively timeless :)

    • lesterfreamon on 24/06/2019 - 21:37

      They are quite different. The case and dial on the Seiko are fantastic, especially at the price. A very modern looking automatic dive watch.

      I would argue the Citizen is the kind of watch you would keep for longer. Titanium, sapphire and a sleek dial make it very versatile indeed.

      Or, you could just get both.

  • ilikeit on 24/06/2019 - 21:58

      • ilikeit on 24/06/2019 - 22:32

        No worries, I noticed on their website it is the JDM version of the SPB079 mentioned above. I'm already well stocked in lower range Seiko divers.
