🕐 Citizen Men's BM8475-00X Eco-Drive Military Black Plated Steel Canvas Strap Watch: Reliable and Stylish Timekeeping at its Finest Review

What can I say? Citizen makes great and affordable watches. This particular model is ideal for outdoor activities. I like the Eco Drive concept. Do not change the batteries for the next 20 years. And Citizen's interior lighting is second to none. Once you expose the watch to bright light for a few minutes, it will glow bright blue all night. I have two little quirks. I wish the watch had a screw down crown to improve water resistance. The clock hands could be a bit larger, and the phosphor…

This is a very good watch for the money. I wasn't impressed with the black finish as it scratches too easily compared to other pvd coated watches. The strap is too stiff and doesn't change shape when worn. I've found the watch wants to wander either side of my wrist because the strap doesn't like to fit. The light is nothing special, but in daylight the dial is very legible. I've had great results with several Eco=drive watches, so I assume this watch will last longer than I intend to wear it…

I haven't worn a watch in many years because the ones I have are too fragile for everyday use (my (great?) grandfather) or too difficult to read (fancy chronograph all watch faces and lightning!), but I was looking for something I could wear every day that would cover the basics. I tried a pair from AMZ and thanks to their return policy I didn't get burned. This is the best so far - clean and VERY accurate (didn't lose a second as far as I can see). As someone else pointed out, it's very large,

This is the second Eco Drive watch I have purchased from Revain. I love both watches but this one inexplicably just fell out of the watch a few days ago trying to set the date when pulling out the stem to set it. I've done this several times and it's always worked well. But now I'm not sure about the quality of the watch. They are still running but the fact that the stock has come out gives me reason to believe something is wrong with the watch. I have already passed the return date for this…

I bought this watch as a daily work watch. I like it because it's big and the numbers are easy to see day and night in glow mode. You can't get better watches for money. I wish they had this when I was in Vietnam! The canvas strap is very thick and seems to last a long time. I've worn it in the shower a few times and it dries well without shrinking. I recently gifted it to my nephew because he has a slightly smaller wrist and it fits him perfectly. If you have a very wide wrist this watch…

This watch is definitely large in diameter and is also thick (almost 1/4 inch), the round dial is about 42mm (1 - 5/8) . inches) as listed, but if you include the metal piece that holds the strap in place it's closer to 50mm (2 inches). I have a small wrist and it really covers it up. The strap has a black nylon canvas and a synthetic foam lining on the inside so it doesn't scratch directly on the wrist like regular canvas. The key to using this watch seems to be getting enough sunlight to…

I looked at this purchase from the perspective of an already satisfied Eco-Drive owner. My original Citizen has a titanium case and bracelet and is great for business attire. But I wanted a less formal watch for everyday wear. This watch caught my attention and it was love at first sight. The watch arrived in about five days as stated. When I opened the box I was surprised at the size. This is a watch with a large face and I was expecting something of the same size as my titanium case. I…

I carry my watch very heavy. I've been looking for a long time for a watch that will withstand bumps, splashes, falls and practically forget about it while I'm at work. I'm a restaurant manager and I deal with customers all the time, so I also wanted the watch to look good. I've been wearing this Citizen for about 4 months now and I can say that this model meets all my requirements and then some. Pros: First of all, a great watch looks good. This watch is a bit larger than I usually wear, but I

I was looking for another clean everyday eco drive. I already have a Citizen Ti-zilla and love the durability of this watch. I have a couple of good automatic watches, but I always reset my watch if I haven't worn it for a while. That is the great advantage of Eco-Drive. As long as the watch receives light, it will continue to function and show the time perfectly. I've been waiting for this watch for a few months. When it first came out, I knew I wanted to order it. I'm a fan of aviator and…
