A step higher above are the Citizen Eco-Drive Chronograph mens watches with Atomic Timekeeping feature. Rest, it’s about functions, functions and more functions! The newer line comes with busier dials, which appeal to men more than any other style. The slide-rule rotating dials contribute generously to the busyness; moreover, they also bring in the aviator look, which is all the more appealing.
However, simply looking at the dial of a Citizen Eco-Drive Chronograph Mens Watch is not going to reveal much; you need to check out the list of features and functions one by one. It’s going to take some time, but once you get a hang of it, things shall start falling into place like the right pieces at the right places in a jigsaw puzzle.
Most of the Citizen Eco-Drive chronograph watches are big, but surprisingly, they don’t feel that big on wrist. The new line has sapphire crystal atop the contrasting dial colors and the hands. The contrast makes them extremely easy to read and the larger, flatter crowns and pushers make operations a piece of cake.
Still the biggest point is that these watches are light-powered, which assures despite so many power guzzling functions, your watch shall never run dry, provided you give them a couple of hours of sunlight or expose them to some other bright light source everyday. Once fully charged; no problem even if you are staying under the ground for even a few months after that.
Anyone who is paranoid about their watches keeping irregular time or fussy about perfect timekeeping shall find the Citizen Aqualand Promaster a peacemaker; even if it is not radio-controlled, Citizen’s highly accurate Eco-Drive movements shall never falter beyond a couple of seconds, max. With the atomic timekeeping feature, it’s dead accuracy at the cost of nothing, as long as you are accessible by the atomic tower clocks in Europe, USA, China and Japan. The atomic timekeeping also lets you read the time in other time zones with equal precision.
However, if you want a Citizen eco drive calendar Watch with a simpler build but with a great style and durability, look no further than the Citizen Eco-Drive Military Chronograph watches. They are built to fit in as your day-to-day wristwatches, sport easy-to-read, large dials and you can stay absolutely cool without worrying about changing batteries, winding or shaking. When you see the seconds hand stagger, put it under some moderately bright light. If you can leave it there for roundabout 10 hours, you are ready to go for another 6 months or more.
