The Eco-Drive 300 Meter Professional Diver watch has a 180-day power reserve, with a four day advanced low charge indicator and is accurate within +/- 15 seconds per month, and a one directional rotating elapsed-time bezel for safety.Watch charges in both sunlight and indoors. The Eco-Drive is water resistant to 999' (300 Meters), a solid one-piece case, screw-down crown with rubber wrist band and it never needs a battery. All making the 300 Meter Professional Diver one sought after timepiece. Watch purchase includes the five year US warranty.
The Eco-Drive is an analog solar powered diver's timepiece. The solar power generation function transforms solar energy into electrical energy to run the watch. Since solar energy is used as the power source of this watch, it has no need of regular replacement of the battery unlike the general diver's watches using the mercury cell, etc.
Fully charging the watch with an overhead office light is usually insufficient, to achieve a full charge from a completely depleted power reserve, however, office light is sufficient for keeping the watch continually charged. It is recommended to use natural outdoor light, or recharge indoors with an incandescent (3,000 Lux) bulb 20" away from the watch in 120 hours, outdoors, cloudy (10,000 Lux) 35 hours and outdoors, sunny (100,000 Lux) in 11 hours.

Compared to Invicta the watch face is a little small.
It is well made and the seals hold.
I was able to easily move the dial as needed.

Not a fan of watches over the years, but this watch is great. Not just for diving - a simple to use everyday watch that other divers will recognize.

Finally, a dive watch that doesn't flood beyond 60'. Made a dive to the Oriskany at 125' with no problem. The solar power means I don't have to break the seal to replace a battery. Simple and functional, just what I wanted!

Comments about Citizen Citizen BN0000-04H Eco-Drive 300 Meter Professional Diver with Rubber Band,:
comfortable, stylish, accurate, practical (because it is waterproof/resistant) and easy to maintain (no winding). What more could you want from a watch?
The "perfect online order": price was great, website was well designed and perfectly functional, notifications were prompt, delivery was as stated. Not one complaint.

Comments about Citizen Citizen BN0000-04H Eco-Drive 300 Meter Professional Diver with Rubber Band,:
This is a classic Citizen design, and I often find myself on a Dive liveaboard with someone that has the older Automatic iteration. The radium dial is readable ALL THE TIME. Can be used over the wetsuit or under the diveskin. The bezel is functional and easy to read. Only downside is salt build up in the crevices of the wrist band, but easily removed with an old toothbrush. This watch proclaims loudly I'm a diver.

I own 10 watches and wear this ALL the TIME. Lost Seiko gift from my mom to burglars and replace with this one. Excellent ... pay attention to keeping light source to keep it charged ... daily exposure is all it needs. Buy from Leisure Pro ... best price anywhere!

This is a great watch at a great price. You can wear it diving all day and to dinner that night. It never needs a battery. Slim design close to your wrist, not big and bulky like other dive watches. Hands, numbers and bezel glow great at night above and below the water. If your looking for a simple to use, accurate time piece this is the watch to buy.
