I have been wanting an Eco-Drive for sometime now but didn't want to spend hundreds on an everyday watch. I wanted something to go from the gym to the office. This fit the bill. It is stylish but not fussy. I like the push-button clasp - easy open and close. So far, it has been a great watch and kept perfect time. My only suggestion is that they update it with a second hand and the date on the dial.

This is a beautiful watch, my wife loves the fact that it is solar powered, no batteries to replace. I was hesitant about the size of the band, but it is easy to remove links as needed, just go to their web site for directions. I didn't have a special tool for this so I placed the band over a small hole on a bench to push the pins through.

I have been wearing this watch for the past 10 years on a DAILY basis. It is still in beautiful shape. It has never failed me. SO worth the price!

I ordered this watch as a gift for a friend. I previously purchased (and reviewed) a different Citizen Eco-Drive watch, and based on my good experience with that item, I purchased this one.

The watch is heavy for its size, which suggests a solid quality. The watch is quite a bit smaller than I expected, but not "dainty" small. However, it is definitely a feminine sized watch.

There is no date or day display, and no second hand.

The water resistance rating is resistant only, meaning not suitable for submersion (nor for bathing, swimming, or showering), only for the occasional splash. This is consistently incorrect in the information panel.

While it is 2-toned (silver and gold tones) the silver is definitely predominant, and the gold serves as an accent tone. Neither metal is pure.

It is an attractive and feminine watch, well made and durable. I would classify it as business casual up to moderately dressy.

My wife is hard on watches. She doesn't mean to be, but for some reason her watches tend to stop running for mysterious reasons, slurp up batteries every two months, and get broken (once as a service person changed a battery, he reset the time, twisted the stem too hard and it never worked correctly again). She stopped wearing a watch, using her cell phone to check the time. I knew she wanted another watch, but she didn't ask me for one. But as a surprise birthday gift, I selected the Citizen eco-drive. The eco-drive doesn't depend on a battery (which will have to be changed), or winding the stem, or even the kinetic (your movement powers it). The eco-drive has a solar cell which powers the watch, using sunlight or even light in her office. I set the time and she strapped it on. She likes the two-toned watches because they go with everything, and is pleased to not to have to worry about what to do when the battery dies. She was very happy to be surprised, and very appreciative to her loving husband.

I had purchased an Eco-drive watch for my husband about a year ago, and I decided that I would like one as well. For a solar watch they are very nice looking and we have not had one issue with either of them. We only received compliments.

This is the second Eco Drive watch I have purchased. I've had my first watch for about three years now and it hasn't lost a minute's time since I first put it on. I found it to be very durable and it has stood up well to brief submersions in water. I have been so pleased with it that I decided to get another one in a different style.

I just received this particular watch and it is much prettier than in the product photo. It is a bit more narrow than most everyday watches which gives it a very dainty, bracelet-like appearance. The band length is generous and may need to be resized if you have a smaller wrist.

Although it is a two-toned watch, the silver color stands out much more than the gold tone. I would classify the overall appearance of the watch as a little on the dressier side of an everyday watch that would also work well as a dress watch too. It does feel weighty for the small size which makes it slide on the arm like a bracelet. My only wish would be for a second hand, but I'm not sure any of the eco drive watches have one.

Very well made ladies watch with good eye appeal. Looks very smart on my wifes wrist. Very pleased with the purchase.

Ordered this watch primarily because of the Eco Drive. Although I saw the design, I was extremely pleased when I received the watch. It is VERY nice! It can be shorten by removing links but I choose to wear it as a bracelet. It is equally "at home" with casual styles as it is at dressier occasions. A good buy- -all the way around!

I purchased this watch because of the eco drive and knowledge I have about its reliability (from the purchase of other watches made by this manufacturer). I needed a watch that could be worn every day as well as with more formal wear and have not been disappointed.
