Amazon.com Product Description
Fashionably stylish as an accent to your business wear, the two-tone Citizen Eco-Drive Calibre 8700 stainless steel men's watch with bracelet band will also make sure you never miss an important date. More than just pretty face, it features a perpetual calendar that automatically adjusts for odd and even months and leap years through 2100. It has a wide, round silver stainless steel watch case and bezel that features a thin, gold-tone outline. It's further complemented by a stainless steel bracelet band that mixes silver brushed and gold polished finishes.
The black dial background is accented by day-of-the-week and 24-hour subdials, as well as a mode subdial that displays the selected function (local time, calendar, alarm). It also offers luminous, gold-tone hands (with seconds hand), a date function at 4 o'clock, and gold-tone dial markers. Other features includes a dual-time function for tracking a second time zone, scratch resistant mineral crystal with anti-reflective coating, and water resistance to 330 feet (100 meters).
This watch is powered by Citizen's unique Eco-Drive, which absorbs sunlight and any artificial light through the crystal and dial to recharge the watch continuously. With regular exposure to light, the Eco-Drive continuously recharges itself for a lifetime of use. This watch's Eco-Drive provides a 180-day power reserve, and it can be recharged with just 4 hours of exposure to light.

Citizen Men's BL8004-53E Eco-Drive Calibre 8700 Watch Reviews
| 77 of 79 people found the following review helpful By I typically shy away from quartz watches except as cheap work knock-abouts. My best watches are all automatics. I have several Omegas, 3 Rolex's, and 2 TAG's and a Breitling. All Automatics. I also have a Luminox as my "cheap" quartz knock-about. I feel that it is silly to have an expensive watch and it be reliant on using a battery. A good watch should be self-sufficient. Citizen has performed an amazing technological breakthrough with the Eco-Drive movement. It is powered by light through a solar cell underneath the face. The cells are so efficient that they are invisible and it is impossible to tell it is there. They seem to have overcome any limitations of face design, and they now come in a multitude of colors and configurations. The watches are claimed to never need a battery. The solar cell keeps...

I too researched watches and decided on this one. My only complaint is the crown. The crown has a lip on the end that gets caught when I reach into my briefcase and in some instances on the inside of my pocket. The crown catches and pulls out much too easy. The watch stops when the crown is pulled out. I almost missed a flight thinking I had plenty of time but in reality the watch was stopped. Keep an eye on the crown. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful This review is from: Citizen Men's BL8004-53E Eco-Drive Calibre 8700 Watch (Watch) This is my third Eco-Drive, and perhaps the single most beautiful watch in my collection of over 30 (including Rolexes, Breitlings, etc.). Brilliantly designed and built to Citizen's usual high standards, possessing the legendary accuracy of the Eco-Drive system, this is an essential men's watch. Two-toned, it can function beautifully as a dress or sports watch. As others have noted, it looks quite expensive and easily rivals the beauty of far more expensive models like Rolex. Even at full retail price, it's a bargain. Yet it can be found online for half that price. Its perpetual day-date calendar is an amazing convenience. Highest recommendation. |
