This review is for the BM6550-58E. I was looking for a stylish watch with stainless steel case and band that does not require battery changes. The watch is a simple analog dial with second hand and a date window. The hour and minute hands glow in the dark. As you'd expect, the time and date are set by the watch crown.
I purchased this watch specifically because of the Eco Drive feature. I wanted to have a timepiece that I could wear day to day without worrying that it would lose time or stop running because the battery needed to be replaced.
I've owned a Seiko Kinetic for about 10 years and when it started losing its capacity, learned while it needs no batteries, the capacitor which stores the electric charge and powers the watch needed to be replaced. So I thought I'd give Citizen's Eco Drive a try.
I've had this watch for about a month now, and so far so good. I wear it daily, and it seems to get sufficient charge from normal use (indoor office on weekdays, some outdoor sun on weekends). It's only gained a few seconds (by atomic clock) since I set it a month ago.
