Customer Reviews


I am slowly converting my watch collection from a mix of self-winding automatic and a few quartz to all Citizen Eco-Drives. This is the newest addition and I am delighted with it. The watch is a "beater"...it will be wonderful for weekends, travel and whenever you want a watch that can take something. The stainless steel case and bezel have a satin finish and the screw-down crown is knurled. The dial is an oil black, not a flat black as you might possibly anticipate in a "military" watch. The substantial numbers and markers have a ton of luminous material and glow like beacons in a dark environment -- perfect for night viewing. The second hand is precisely registered with the second markings on the chapter ring. The crystal is a flat, hardened mineral crystal with an anti-reflective coating (presumably on the interior of the crystal) so there is pretty little reflection. This is a substantial 42mm diameter watch -- not such as the crown which is guarded with shoulders]. It is not clear if the woven, fabric band is nylon or some other material it is nicely created and the holes for the clasp are reinforced with stainless steel rivets. I genuinely like this watch and ... at a mere $105 ... this is a awesome obtain.

I was unable to choose between this model and the BM8180-03E, which is a much more utilitarian looking model. So I ordered each, but am keeping this. My impressions:
- The BM6400-00E is alot more substantial. I'm a medium-develop guy, and I thought the BM8180-03E looked small for my wrist size.
- This is a better seeking model than the BM8180-00E. I'm incredibly picky when it comes to watch types, and I seriously like the way this looks. This is even more 'dressy' however is not too fancy looking as an everyday watch. It will look considerably nicer with a suit than the BM8180, which is much less costly searching
- I was worried about the date display being also smaller. I assume it looks smaller than it is considering of the oversize numbers on the dial, but it is nevertheless totally readable.
- The band on the BM6400 is longer than the band on the 8180, and the black looks significantly improved than the green. I find the band to be comfy, and am not in any rush to go swap it out for one other.
- I favor the 'screw-down' crown on the BM6400 - less worries about water obtaining into the case. The BM8180 has a two-notch crown that doesn't screw down.
All in all, this model is additional than worth the extra $25 dollars among the two, and is a great deal at this cost.
