Good looks meet dive-ready functionality in the latest Promaster Dive timepiece. Comfortable on the wrist at 41mm in silver-tone stainless steel, this handsome tool watch is secured to the wrist via a matching triple-link bracelet and stylized in wear via a blue unidirectional bezel. The gradient blue dial hosts the highly visible applied hour markers, with plenty of lume and a unique handset easily showcases the time no matter the lighting conditions. A subtle date window at the 3 o'clock position provides daily utility. Featuring our Eco-Drive technology – sustainably powered by light, any light. Never needs a battery. This high-performance watch includes a wetsuit extender that doubles as a tool-less micro adjust, is ISO compliant and water resistant up to 200 meters, and comes in an exclusive dive tank box. Caliber number E168.

“The watch looks as good in person as in the promotional pictures. It is a stunningly beautiful piece, with plenty of lume, excellent build quality, well crafted bracelet and handy micro-adjust, and more. I couldn't be more satisfied.”

“Easy purchase fast shipping(used standard). Watch wears light and is not bulky. Keep it in the light and it keeps perfect time. This is my 3rd eco drive and the oldest is about 20 years old. All work great”

“I've owned another Citizen Eco-Drive for close to a couple decades and it has been rock solid, even through lots of swimming, snorkeling, being knocked around with manual labor, etc. I was looking to add this as a less beat up & more colorful addition. While I like the color and trust the build quality, i found the machined edges of the watch body, bezel and even the watch band to be too sharply squared off and sort of uncomfortable to the touch. That's why I've taken one star off my rating. Because of this I've returned it and will shop for a different Citizen eco-drive option.”

“Looks great, runs great, feels great. My second citizen and with the discount a great value. A notable exception to the enshitification trend.”

“This watch is perfect. Love the size and weight, and the gradient blue is gorgeous. It looks like it should cost a great deal more. Plus you get a sapphire crystal, Eco Drive and it's ISO compliant? Yeah it's a great watch and exactly what I was looking for in a bulletproof watch I can wear all the time and that goes with anything. 10/10. Would recommend.”

“I love this watch. The Eco Drive movement is incredibly accurate. The case is right in the Goldielocks zone and feels great on the wrist. The size and style make this watch very versatile. The sapphire crystal and ISO certification were big selling points for me. As someone who is not currently a diver, it’s definitely making me dive-curious. Great watch!”

“For the price point, this is a very nice watch and truly competes with much higher-end options. The Citizen Promaster Dive watch is running on the Eco-Drive E168 caliber quartz movement, which is accurate to about plus or minus 15 seconds a month, though many users report higher real-world accuracy, and is universally celebrated among watch enthusiasts as a robust “set and forget” workhorse, capable of withstanding extreme conditions while maintaining exceptional timekeeping. With 200m water resistance, sapphire crystal, a unidirectional “clicky” bezel, excellent lume, 5-year warranty and powered by eco-drive. What more could you ask for? You're getting a lot of watch for the price, plus I think it’s incredibly comfortable to wear and keeps better time than an automatic, and its ISO certified. While many fashion watches feature dive-style aesthetics, the ISO certification is the dividing line that separates a dive-inspired watch from an actual life-saving piece of diving gear. Because these standards are strict, Citizen restricts the term "diver's watch" exclusively to models that comply with this regulation This watch can perform many roles, it could be your knockaround weekend watch, a boating watch, or pretty much anywhere since it balances aesthetics and functionality, especially since you don't have to worry about batteries or winding it up or losing time or resetting the date thanks to that wonderful eco-drive. My very minor complaints are the bracelet has a little more wiggle room than I personally like but you can find other bracelets online made specifically for Citizen Promaster Diver. I'm not a fan of the pin and collar system for the links, but once you get it sized its not an issue, especially since you have the tool-less micro adjust clasp. The fact that this watch is obtainable new from Citizen for under $400 makes it an outstanding choice.”

“This is my first quality watch and must say I’m very pleased. The fit and finish are first rate. The look and feel are fantastic. If I had one issue, it is that the bezel is not centred at top dead centre. It’s off to the right about one degree. This will be my everyday watch for years to come.”
