Citizen watches....feedback needed

I have a different style Titanium EcoDrive and swear that it is so light that looking at buying another non titanium one just seems way too heavy, have never had an issue with it either.
 
I have a Titanium Chronograph Eco-Drive. It's been 7 years, the buttons are sticking, maybe it is time to take it in and have it cleaned/adjusted.

Other than that, you have to remember to let it sun once in a while, a watch tends to get covered by sleeve a lot so not a lot of recharge time. I used to take them off, put it on the dash while I am driving so it can charge.
 
The only thing to watch out for on that particular watch is that the band isn't very flexible....I got the ladies' version for my gf and it didn't fit her wrist very well at all.
 
I've had this one for almost 6 years - It's been a very good watch... But now I sort of want one of those new watches that gets a radio signal from the atomic clocks.
 
I was in the same situation a couple weeks ago and ended up getting a Seiko instead. A little more expensive, but I liked the looks better.
 
I've been thinking about picking up one of their 'Titanium Chronograph Eco-Drive' watches, and have read quite a few reviews and such. Overall, Citizen seems to put out a quality product.
 
I like my Citizen, but I have several scratches on the band just from wearing it while typing. I would be careful with it if you care about that sort of thing.

My wife gave me one over 2 years ago and its been the best watch i've ever had...no complaints here..
 
I strongly recommend a titanium Duratect watch. It takes a whole lot of abuse to scratch this finish, unlike the bare titanium which scratches easier than stainless.

Here's mine:

Basically, you have eco-drive with power saving feature. Perpetual calendar, which means that I never have to change the date. Sapphire crystal, which if I manage to scratch, I'm sure my arm will be in worse shape. Water resistant to 200 meters (screw down crown). Very strong lume. And a very readable face.

Huge :thumbsup: on these.

Looks like what I want, except I need an alarm. Other than that, quite nice. The sapphire face strikes me as a huge deal as well- I don't mind so much if the band get scratched, but the face is another story.

 
I've had Citizen Eco-drive for 2 years now and it's perfect. Makes more sense than Seiko Kinetic because if you don't wear your watch for a bit, it's dead with Kinetic, but it just keeps charging with Citizen unelss you keep it in the dark (and even then, it'll last for 270 days).... I have a SS watch, and I wish I got titanium, but I don't relaly mind now. Somehow titanium watches feel like plastic or something because I can't believe they can be so light =P. Anyways... a pin fell out the other day and the band was broken for a bit until I got it replaced. Other than that, I love my watch.
 
i have an eco drive and i've had it since about 10th grade (ill be finishing my second year of college this comming june)

i've never had to have the battery replaced yet
 
here's mine

im wondering where to get it serviced though, i figured i need to get it pressure tested and i should either have the O-rings looked at or changed since it's been a while

anyone know if you can send it in for that and how much it may cost?

*EDIT*
hahaha, mines the only one with a depth gauge 😛
