Citizen Men’s Stainless Steel Watch #BK0860-56L
This is a great looking watch and I’m really happy w/ it for the price. However, the photos and packaging are a little deceiving…this is not an eco-drive watch. I did some hunting around online and discovered that this model is several years old, which probably explains the drop in price. For some reason its currently sold in the eco-drive packaging.
Rating: 4 / 5
First, my whole reason for buying a new watch was for one feature: Readability when driving around town in the dark. And compared to my fossil collection it is quite readable in the dark. Still being fairly new I don’t exactly know how long that will last, but for the price it isn’t bad.
I paid about $115USD at Kay Jewelers in the local mall. Through the store I received a lifetime battery replacement warranty…Well, on to the quick stuff:
Pros:
Water resistant to 100 Meters
Very readable in low or no light (At least for a few hours)
Clasp very secure (Double push-button with fold-over)
Band and case quite sturdy
Dial nicely sized for the average person
Cons:
Dial doesn’t rotate (Could be a pro depending on how you look at it)
Somewhat plain looking in my opinion, you’re not going to win any awards with its looks (If you want looks, in my humble opinion, buy a Fossil)
It does pinch the occasional hair or two, nothing too bad but it happens.
Overall an excellent watch for the price. This watch is a perfect daily wear, just don’t try to be overly dressy with it. This is the reason I rate it 4 stars, its not as pretty as some, but still not too bad. Durable, easy to read, and decent water resistance; I would buy another one.

I purchased this watch for my husband for Christmas. He loved it! I was impressed with the quality of the product and look forward to him getting many years of use out of it.

This watch looks more expensive than it is, but it’s not cheap either. In other words, it’s a good buy for someone on a budget who wants to wear a nice-looking dress watch without spending hundreds of dollars.
Pros:
+blue face (my fav color…might not matter to you)
+glow-in-the-dark hands & number pips (takes a couple days of light exposure to “charge;” quite useful in dark places obviously)
+relatively easy to adjust to the size of your wrist (I had to take out a link and shift the main adjustment pin one slot tighter; it fits perfectly now, however)
+solid clasp and general feel
Cons:
-no rotating dial; not a big deal if all you care about is the time
-will probably need a size adjustment to fit your wrist (but what watch doesn’t? And like I said, it’s relatively simple to do [with a hard counter, a hammer, and a tiny screwdriver or awl])
Overall, I am very satisfied with this product. I would strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to add a touch of sophisticated style to his right or left wrist without spending a ton of money.

This watch is a great purchase for someone looking for that dress/casual watch or just a men’s watch for all occasions. Good, sturdy construction. Water resistant, although I haven’t tested the limits of the watch on this. The watch does scratch a little from wear and tear (light scratches) under the wrist if you aren’t careful. Overall, a great value for a quality watch. I love it.
