CitizenWatch PROMASTER NY0125-83E [Marine Series Mechanical Diver 200m] Japan Domestic

I bought this watch as a replacement for a Seiko SKX that I wore for over 20 years until it finally died. I liked the Seiko MAS 62 style of watch but there is no way that I could afford one. Then I found this watch. Knowing Citizens reputation as a great dive watch, I decided to conduct further research on this Promaster model. There was very little on the internet, but what I did find was positive. I went ahead and purchased the watch with the hope that it would be a good replacement for my old Seiko.The watch arrived before the estimated time. It arrived well packaged. Upon opening the package I was glad to find the watch in brand new, running condition. I would definitely buy from this seller again.First the negatives, because there is only one. When trying to size the bracelet, I found that the pins, once removed, were impossible to get back in to stay. They would fall out just by moving my wrist. I don’t know if this is a design flaw or if I just got a bad example. My plan was to put this watch on a NATO type strap, so it’s not that big of a problem for me, but could be an issue for someone who would want to wear it on the bracelet. For this reason, I didn’t take off of the 5 star review for my situation.Now the positives. The bezel turns nicely, has no back play, and lines up with the markers. So far, my watch is running about 4-5 seconds fast a day, (over the last two weeks of daily wear), with no adjustment. The weight and size of the watch is no problem and is very comfortable to wear.I have not been in water with this watch yet, but have no qualms about doing so. I will report back should there be any problems with this.So, even though I had issues with the bracelet, it was not that big of a deal as I had planned to put it on a more secure retention strap anyway. This is a good watch and I am very happy with it so far. I will update this post should any negative issues arise.

It is a throwback reissue of an older style Citizen. However, the price, features, and quality make it stand out on its own. It also has everything aligned unlike many of my favorite Seiko products. Very glad I purchased this item. Yes, it has a Miyota 8000 series movement, but it does hack and hand wind. No wobble like the old 8215 Miyotas either. Lume is excellent, bezel action is superb and solid. Keeps times well within tolerances of any automatic I have up including Swiss movements. Very pleased with my purchase.

Watch defective doesn't keep time,followed manufacturers instructions still not worth money had one for 50 + yrs no problem just wore out

Great looking watch and fast delivery. I was not expecting to get the watch so soon. I'm usually not used to wearing a watch of this size but I really don't notice it.

This is a great sorta reissue of past Citizen 70s divers. The price is amazing for what you get. And it’s a cheaper version of the new Citizen titanium NB6021-17E:-Really cool and useful divers extension that’s similar to the Tudor/ Rolex glide.-41mm case and 20mm lugs is perfect.-Gilt dial and gold coin bezel is a nice touch.-it is a tall watch at around 13mm but you hardy notice.-JDM model with Kanji day wheel is an awesome.-200M depth.-Has a 62MAS look to it, but doesn’t cost $1000-Citizen is a tried and true brand with good history.-I was not too hot on the Mercedes hour hand until I saw that the older Citizen models it’s designed from all had that.I say go for this watch 100%. It’s easily gotten at $260-300. Worth every penny!
