The Eco-Drive is a really good idea: never again need to replace the battery. Good extended warrenty. The face is a little smallee than we’d imagined (but then, maybe, we didn’t read the spec carefully enough).
This is the second time I have bought this watch. The last time was in 2010 and it worked perfectly until now when I think the solar powered battery died. So no complaints on reliability and I like the slightly retro analogue face with Roman numerals.
Lovely looking watch small which is idea for small wrists like mine. Strap a bit stiff but I’m sure it will soften up with wear.
Very smart looking watch. Easy to read dial and strap is good quality leather. Love not having to wind it or replace batteries.
Needed a watch to wear everyday, and best of all no batteries.
I bought this for my wife who has a very small wrist. It fits perfectly without having to try making an extra hole in the leather strap. It looks elegant and seems to be keeping time very well so her rather sedentary life (she’s disabled and her mobility is severely curtailed) does not appear to affect the battery charging. Setting the time and date are easily accomplished and the face is very clear to read. The only downside is that the calendar date is rather small. I would thoroughly recommend this watch.
A gift for her indoors, very happy and satisfied – happy days.
A lovely little watch easy to read and the fact you never ever need to put batteries in it a complete bonus . Buy it !!
So far (3 days!) it does what it says on the tin!. Very attractive looking, dainty watch, and that is where the one problem lies. The date aperture is miniscule. I can just about see the single figures, but the double figures I find indistinguishable. Not good if you don’t have 20/20 vision. In the picture it looks very clear, but don’t be mislead. Leather strap gives plenty of leeway in the fitting.
Over packed – outer sleeve, inner cardboard box, plastic box – all way too big for contents.
Amazon delivery excellent, arrived day after order placed.
This was bought as a present for an elderly lady and she seems to like it a very good watch for day-to-day wear.
My partner needed a practicle but stylish watch and provided a perfect Christmas prese
Stunning watch, the photos don’t do it justice!…so happy with the quality of this watch and it fits my tiny, tiny wrist perfectly….Happy customer here…great value!
A lovely looking watch ticks (haha) all the boxes for me as I don’t have to think about batteries during lockdown or anytime. I’m more than pleased with the watch and Amazon delivery was really quick plus parcel arrived in excellent condition Thank you
I love this watch its easy to read and its eco
Big fan of Citizen Eco Drive. Bought this as a Christmas present for my wife, she is very pleased with it.
Keeps excellent time and looks good. Date a bit small but readable. Overall very pleased with this watch.
I like the dial and the fact that the strap is leather but the proof in the pudding is whether the wife likes as its her birthday present.
No batteries to change and accurate time keeping plus long guarantee make this a good choice for my wife. I already have a Citizen eco gents watch which has performed really well. The face size is just right however the calendar can be a little difficult to read.
I cannot understand those who call this a tiny watch, or who complain that the date is invisibly small. I’d say the watch is actually slightly larger than medium-size, and the date is perfectly legible. I bought it to replace a (smaller!) rectangular-shaped Citizen Eco-Drive watch which was given to me 15 years ago and which still keeps perfect time. There is nothing wrong with it, other than the metal case and the glass have become very scratched over the years, the dial has yellowed, and it doesn’t have a seconds hand or date, and I do like to have both these things. The fact that it never needs adjusting, even after all this time, convinced me of the reliability and quality of Citizen Eco-Drive watches, so I looked at the range and couldn’t decide between a much larger, waterproof bracelet model, and this more delicate one. I purchased the bracelet model at less than half price, which meant I had money left over to purchase this one too, with its classy leather strap, into which I have had to punch an extra hole to make it fit my fairly slim wrist. Its roman numerals give this watch an air of classic elegance, and the gold-framed date in place of the III is beautifully unobtrusive. A beautifully designed timepiece which I shall try to keep free of scratches.
Looks good, elegant. The date is far to tiny to read but I didn’t buy it for the date. Not having to replace batteries is the main reason for purchase
We love this its is a gift and was loved by new owner. The watch looks bigger in the picture so be to shocked when it arrives. The face is about the size of a 20p piece but can still be read clearly
I have a small wrist and cannot wear big watches so this watch is what I needed. It is clear to read and the strap has enough holes in it. I did not need to make additional holes in order that it fitted my wrist.
Had been looking for new watch, but the majority of them the face was too big and few had a leather strap. This one fits all the things I was looking for, it is neat and easy to see. Eco drive is new to me so shall see how it goes, but not having to change batteries is great.
Works well. Diameter smaller thanit looks. Almost 10 more expensive. Saw a cheaper option of 72 after my purchase on same Amazo
One of my favourite watches!
Very comfortable to wear, since the watch is very light. The watch has a petite design and is quite tiny, but I personally don’t mind since it’s a style I really like.
The best feature is the eco-drive, no batteries needed! I’ve had this watch for a couple of years now and it still works perfectly.
Chosen to replace a similar-looking and much-loved 32 year old Tissot ladies watch that finally had to go because repair parts were not available.
I have bought 2 earlier watches with Citizen movements, and this one, with its eco-drive, looks a step up in ease of use and avoidance of repair costs (as long as it keeps working!). There was a 6-year guarantee by registering with Citizen instead of the printed 5-year one. So far so very pleased!
I have had Citizen Eco-Drive watches for many years and I would recommend them to any body. They come with a five year guarantee and nothing ever goes wrong with a Citizen Eco-Drive watch.
Absolutely love my watch. Really smart, quite dressy, but with a nice clear easy to read dial which looks very classy. I haven’t had it long enough to know how well it lasts but I’m really pleased with it so far. Leather strap is comfortable and easy to do up. Initial setting the time is a bit fiddly as the crown is very small but hopefully if it holds it charge as long as its supposed to, apart from the hour changes twice a year, it shouldn’t need doing again. Great buy.
Love this watch. Clean, elegant lines. Exactly the right size for my wrist. I’m fastening it on the second hole on the strap, so heaps of adjustment potential if I ever become portly. So pleased not to have to buy batteries.
A lovely watch, strap good to I’ve had one before but this is bigger the numbers are good to see but the date not good to see. I’m very happy with i
+ The watch looks better (to me) than on the photo. Personally, I like the simple roman numerals and the overall classy look of it. It has the look and feel of a good-quality watch. The smallish case looks pretty good on my thin wrist (not sure how it would suit someone with broad wrists). And it was the case that ultimately made me choose this watch over 4 other watches; and the fact that this is an eco-drive watch built to last for a while.
– My dislikes about the watch are mainly about aesthetic and feel, i.e. very subjective: First off, as other reviewers mentioned, the date window is designed in a way that makes it difficult to decipher the date; you have to put it right up to your eye or use a magnifying glass. I don’t really mind that as I don’t use my watch to check the date, but agree with others that it’s useless and unnecessary.
What’s bothered me a lot more about this watch is the armband. It is very (!) stiff and the holes seem to be in weird places, meaning it doesn’t fit well feels doubly uncomfortable. Even after a couple of weeks of wearing the watch it’s not possible to keep the case centred; the armband’s design combined with my wrist-size means the case always slips halfway around my wrist. Not only does this not look or feel nice, it also means the case is much more likely to knock or scratch against objects.
I’m also not a fan of the band’s look – strongly patterned plus the shiny reddish-brown colour makes it a little too gaudy for me, a little too pretend-posh looking slightly cheap / bad taste. The overall look of the watch, “gaudy” armband plus 3-colour case makes it a bit too busy to fit my classic tastes.
Because I really liked the case, especially after comparing it to a number of other small-case watches, but could not get on with the armband, I kept the watch and got a new band in the end, a softer and less gaudy brown one that fits and looks better. Even with the extra cost I still consider this a good deal, but also a waste of good material.
I’ve bought this as a present. I love it! It is light and nifty. Quite pretty and nothing to dislike about it – I’ll keep it for myself if my friend does not like her present!!
Love this watch. I love that it has no battery so never have to pay to replace that. The strap looks and feels great. And the face looks excellent – really good quality. It also has a little window with the number of the date inside which I find very helpful.
I bought this to replace another Citizen eco-drive watch that was still working after 8 years when I lost it. I hope I won’t have to buy another for even longer than that because this has a leather strap. My previous watch had a non-replaceable metal bracelet and after several years the clasp had become loose and it fell off my wrist without my noticing. Great never to have to worry about batteries running out. Yes the calendar is very small but they always are on the women’s watches. The only critiicism I have is that the numbers on the back are near impossible to read in order to register online for a further year’s guarantee because they are miniscule.
I bought this for my Wife for Christmas.
She tells me she is very pleased with it and that it looks good on her wrist (which it does) .
She is yet to say if it keeps good time, but we both know that Citizen Eco-Drive usually do and there is no reason WHY THIS ONE SHOULD NOT. So on the basis of Reputation, Looks and the 5 year guarantee on this product I can see not reason why it does not deserve 5 stars. Both myself and my wife have yet to have any problem with Citizen Eco-drive Watches.
It has a lovely clear white diall and easy to read Roman numerals. So far keeps good time. Nice secure strap and fits my wrist (which is very small) on its tightest point. Extremely pleased that I don’t have to bother with replacing batteries. Highly recommended.
This delightful watch arrived quickly, sourced from Watchco through Amazon, it had been ‘set up’ with some charge and the correct date – thanks.It has a beautifully clear, easy to read, face and it is a perfect fit for a small wrist.A classically attractive watch it is quite elegant and I love it. The small date window is in keeping with its classic dial.
Already have a Citizen Eco drive watch in silver and love the fact that I don’t keep having to buy batteries as have a selection of watches to wear but it always seems that when I haven’t worn one for a while they need the battery replacing now I don’t have to worry, just need to keep them out of drawers!! Packaging and delivery were perfect and on time.
My daughter was very pleased with this watch and loves everything about it. Only thing is we can’t work out how to change the day as it continued on to the 31st of February.
This watch was received today less than 72 hours after placing the order with Creative Watch.
My wife is delighted with it. It is more stylish, with a neater numeric dial and slimmer leather strap, than the similar Rotel watch that had to be returned to a local store because of a faulty fastener. As a bonus, this watch will never need a battery. I agree with the comments regarding the tiny date display, but we don’t rate this as important…… I forgot! a five-year manufacturer’s warranty is included.

Quality look and feel and no more watch batteries! Watch and packaging arrived in good condition. As usual I left it to the last minute. I told my wife that I would replace the watch I bought her 22 years ago (Rotary) with a similar one for Easter. Unfortunately I was unable to find one exactly the same. I did discover this one, similar; by this time it was the Thursday before Good Friday. I had to tell my dear lady that the watch I promised would not arrive till after Easter. Then to my amazement it arrived on the Saturday morning before Easter Sunday! Well done you gave us a very happy Easter and I’m a happy Bunny! I’ve no idea what customer relations are like as the order went through with no problems.
