Citizen Women's Eco-Drive Silhouette Stainless Steel Watch #EW9330-53A
After 9yrs of daily wear, my beloved old EcoDrive stopped keeping good time because it wasn't recharging properly. Having it serviced was going to cost as much as a new watch. That model was out of production, but I wanted to replace it with something almost identical: the smallest, simplest, plainest, steel/silver-tone, metal bracelet EcoDrive I could find. It needed to have all twelve tick-marks for the hours (not just one at noon), but I didn't want the added clutter of a date window, minute tick-marks, or a second-hand. This model fit the bill.
When it arrived, the first thing I noticed was that the bracelet felt "cheaper" than the bracelet on my old watch. Each link is made of five metal pieces in two rows (3+2), but they are fused instead of being connected with a pin the way they were on my old watch, so the bracelet is not as flexible. On consideration, I realized that the biggest difference is that this new bracelet is much lighter than the old one... and that the changes were probably made as a deliberate improvement. My old watch scratched easily, so I will be careful with this one, especially the crystal, because I'm guessing it won't charge as efficiently if it's all scuffed up.
Overall, I'm delighted with this purchase. It's a beautiful little watch, just what I wanted. And I love that it's an EcoDrive. Somehow a watch is never quite the same once you've had to replace the battery; after the back has been opened it's never quite as water resistant afterwards, and its days are numbered. But with an EcoDrive, there's no battery to replace, so I'm looking forward to (hopefully) another 9yrs!

Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Titanium Watch #BM6260-58L
I purchased this watch and immediately returned it. The pictures here on Amazon make it look like a shiny silver watch with a cobalt blue face. In actuality the watch is a dark gray color (with a dull finish) with a darker gray face. Not only do I personally not like that color combination, but I actually think it makes the watch look cheap. To make matters worse, I had assumed that this watch would be the size of comparable men's dive watches or luxury watches (e.g., slightly over sized). This watch is tiny - almost more of a size you would expect in women's watches. The small size makes it look even more like a cheap, $20 watch. While the style of this watch may appeal to some people, I can honestly say that I have never been so disappointed with an online purchase.Buy Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Titanium Watch #BM6260-58L!

Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Corso Two-Tone Watch #BM8404-59L
Having just replaced an old battery driven watch that had its back removed too many times over the years to bother with overhauling, I went for this Citizen model. The 2-tone design makes it more elegant looking than solid stainless steel, and the classic, simplistic design of the face is what I was looking for. I don't need a watch with a lot of extra dials and functions that I'd never use. The selling point to me was the Eco-Drive, solar powered, never needing a battery replacement. The watch arrived with a low charge, giving the 2-second sweep as its indicator (Citizen's standard low-charge warning). Almost immediately after exposing it to light, the charge began, the second hand reverted to the 1-second sweep, and it's keeping perfect time. If you want to spend slightly less, look at the solid stainless model that otherwise looks identical to this, but the 2-tone is worth it IMHO; I don't buy a watch often, so it's got to be right, and it's still priced affordable for a great and stylish product.Buy Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Corso Two-Tone Watch #BM8404-59L!
