Watch folks-- Citizen Automatic?
 

I found a watch like this one on ebay for about half of this price.

Citizen Automatic Diving Rubber Strap Men's Watch NH8380-15E

Decent $100ish watch?

Citizen is a very nice watch in that price range.

For that price, make sure it is authentic.

The seller I found says "new in original packaging"

Research the seller and make sure they have a good reputation. Other than that, Citizen makes a great diver. A couple of months ago I purchased an Eco-Drive one similar to the one you are looking at.

:cert:

there are tons of fakes out there these days. they use less expensive movements in very real looking cases. usually see on more expensive brands though. honestly, for 100 beans I wouldn't care if it was a knock off so long as it keeps reasonable time, which it likely will.

if you want a citizen, amazon, macy's or jomashop are better places to buy.

here's one similar:

:iagree:

I've had that very watch for several years now and it is a great watch.

I bought this one a couple of months ago, also a nice diver:

I had a Citizen Eco-Drive for years, but it died in a drawer.
I will say that I like the rubber watch strap.

Bought a Marathon from Nox years ago and I just swapped out a new strap that has been in a drawer for years. Still smells strongly of vanilla. :lol:

Nice watch.

Being a life long watch freak... my "automatic" days are over.
I just don't want the hassle of winding or rotating watches anymore; got enough going on in my life.

Shouldn't those watches be called "manual"? :bigears:

you'd think so; but "automatic" in the watch world = self winding.

Miyota Movements, they aren't fancy but they are robust workhorses.

I listed this on FB marketplace and got zero responses.

It's fugly... er, not my style. :shrug:

There's no such thing as an average citizen

It looks better in person.

I once went to Vegas to drink myself to death and I sold my ’93 Rolex Daytona for $500.
