Keep time with military precision while adding a unique edge to your wardrobe with the Citizen Eco-Drive Men's Chronograph Canvas Watch. Featuring the clean look and the rugged dependability of a stainless steel case and bezel, this timepiece relies on the unique Citizen Eco-Drive movement system, so you never need to replace its battery. Eco-Drive is an advanced, technical system that uses a thin solar panel under the dial to convert light energy from any source into electrical energy used to run your watch. Also playing a key role in this unique system is a special energy storage cell that greatly increases the efficiency and dependability of using light as a power source. As an added benefit, Eco-Drive power doesn't utilize the harmful chemicals contained in traditional batteries, so it's an excellent environmental choice as well.
The watch features a black dial with easy-to-read Arabic numerals in white, a convenient date window at four o'clock, a slim second tracker on the outer dial, and three subdials that provide chronograph functionality along with the ability to track hours on a 24-hour scale. The dial is further offset with luminescent minute and hour hands and a sweeping red seconds hand. Even the cool canvas band on this watch offers ultra-detailed construction. In addition to featuring a sturdy buckle clasp that relies on steel-reinforced eyelets, the band is backed with leather, which provides added durability and results in a pleasant feel against your wrist. This versatile men's watch is water resistant to 330 feet.

I've owned this watch for about 3 months and the watch has functioned well in every aspect. The one drawback being the size of the strap and the placement of the rivet holes on the band itself. My wrist is about 7 1/2" and I have to use the second to last rivet hole on the band. If you have a 8" wrist or larger you will have to change the band or find a different watch as this one will not fit you. The band almost seems like a "youth" sized band. With that being said I really love this watch. The fact that it doesn't run on a battery or need to be worn to work (i.e. automatics) was a big selling point for me. I own battery powered quartz movements along with mechanical and automatics so I was looking for something different and I found it with this watch. The watch keeps excellent time and has a very long reserve power supply. Also very easy to read even in low light conditions.

Nice watch after you give it a good charge. Chronograph works nicely. Changed the band to a Hadley-Roma Men's 20-mm Black Carbon Fiber With Leather Backing Watch Strap #MSM840RA-200...now it looks and feels like it should,..4 stars because I had to do the band change (another $20), otherwise I would have gone with 5.

I probably should have paid more attention to the other reviews of this watch, but it looked so nice in the pictures and was rated highly by other reviewers that I bought it, despite some reviewers saying the band was short. Well the band is VERY SHORT. It is not like I have a super thick wrist but the strap was on its last hole for me. Plus, the holes have metal grommets so the holes are farther apart than on most watch bands, limiting fit choices. Sure, I could have swithed bands, but I liked the cloth--that is why I bought the watch. Also, I saw a Citizen replacement cloth strap and it is $70!!! I was not going to throw away such an expensive strap. Finally, the watch face is totally flat--no depth at all--so it looks cheaper in person than in the pictures. For a couple of reasons, therefore, I can't recommend this watch. If you do like it, be sure you have a small wrist.

The Eco-Drive chronograph canvas is everything I expected...nice timepiece with simplistic yet stylish good looks. As with other reviews...unless you have an exceptionally small wrist have another band ready. I had pre-purchased a zulu military green band that fits the bill perfectly.

I got this watch two months ago for Christmas. Since then I have been really happy with it. The militaristic look is a cool contrast to my clean cut/ modern wardrobe. I have only worn metal bands in the past, but the canvas/ leather one is really comfortable. And I like that I can adjust the size when my writs swells in the heat.
The chronograph is good, and I like how the large red second hand is the stop-watch second hand. I have noticed that when I zero the chronograph, the red second hand naturally rests between 59 and 00 seconds. This kind of annoys me, but not enough to take it in for repair.
If I could, I would make two changes to the watch. I would rather the 24 hour dial on the face be a second time zone. And it would be cool if when you hold the reset "B" button, it showed the percentage charge of the battery. Then this would be the perfect watch!
As for the battery, I live in Canada. I spend less than an hour a day outside, and always wear long sleeves and a coat. I have had no problem maintaining the battery at full change.
Overall: great watch for the price!
