Citizen Watches for Christmas

C has a new meaning in my watch collection.  I recently received my first Citizen watch as an anniversary present.  This Citizen Eco-Drive watch is a great looking timepiece with high tech wizardly within the case.  But, it's even nicer as a gift from my wife to commemorate our 15th wedding anniversary.  This watch is also called "Drive by Citizen."

Here is a picture of my new Citizen Eco Drive watch that I took way down yonder on the Chattahoochie river.

The watch is solar powered and never needs batteries.  It also has a black ion plated case, a comfortable leather band, a date window, and a high degree of water resistance (100 meters).

The dial is black and silver.  It's interesting because at some angles it will appear black and at others it can appear silver.  I like this watch because it uses various shades of black to create a very masculine design that is not necessarily military.  The watch is also understated and refined enough for office wear.  It has a sensible 44 millimeter diameter case and it doesn't exude an attitude of excess and bling.  Instead, the design of this watch sends a message of strength and no nonsense technical competence.  I like it a lot. You can read my complete review here -

If you'd like one just like it, they are available on Amazon.com at pretty good prices.
