Citizen Eco Drive Nylon Strap BM8475-00F Watch

The rough and tumble associated with my job as the Senior Engineer at a reputed vehicle service centre has quite often taken its toll on the attire and accessories I use. It’s precisely why I make sure to wear a tough and rugged watch to work. Last week however, a minor mishap at the service station completely damaged my watch. I had been using it for several years, so it was after all time to get a new one. It had to be sturdy and functional piece, one that I could wear every day to work.

I am partial to the Citizen brand – I own a couple of Citizen timepieces and love the way they are built. My decision was made – my new, every day watch would also be a Citizen timepiece. Gone are the days when you had to make time to visit brick and mortar stores to find an item of your choice. Today, online stores have made it extremely easy to shop so, I settled down to a bit of online research to find my choice of a Citizen watch.

Citizen is known to produce some very functional and robust timepieces that are popular worldwide. Most of the online watch stores have a massive collection of Citizen watches and frankly I had a tough time making up my mind. But to cut a long story short, Downunderwatches.com had just the piece with the right features.

The all-black Citizen Eco Drive Nylon Strap BM8475-00F Watch looked cool.  As a member of Citizen’s military collection, it accentuates the stealthy look. Some might say it isn’t easy to read due to its all-black appearance, however, the design uses different shades of black to improve the readability. The large, bold Arabic hour numerals and hands ensure clarity during the day while the luminosity allows for easy reading of time at night. A mineral crystal covers the large black dial and a black nylon strap completes the picture. The day/ date display is in contrasting white to aid legibility.

Citizen’s environment-friendly technology, namely the Citizen Eco-Drive is used to power the watch. The revolutionary Eco drive technology uses any light source to power the watch. Thus, there are no batteries to replace, reducing the electronic waste polluting the environment.

As a daytime accessory the Citizen Eco Drive Nylon Strap BM8475-00F Watch would complement both casual and formal attire. It was the perfect timepiece for my workplace. Citizen watches are great value for money; they are tough and durable, will last you for years.
