Citizen make great watches and Eco Dive watches run for decades. - As is often the case with watch manufacturers the pictures they supply, particularly on desertcart don't do it justice. It's a nice looking field watch style everyday time piece. Citizen seem to like their watches on the larger side, this watch would have been better in 38-40mm case, 41mm is pushing it a bit for this style but it's fine. It works on a variety of straps but if you like bracelets, search out the model supplied on a braclet, it's also available on desertcart, then later on spend an extra £20 on a leather strap or a NATO, it works on both and on a variety of colours and styles. The supplied black leather strap is decent and typical of Citizen quality and value, and based on experience of other eco drive watches, this watch will last for decades and thankfully now it has a sapphire glass, the crystal will remain relatively scratch free . (Just remember its a solar powered watch and will loose charge if kept in a box or a drawer for months on end and may need an initial charge out of the box by leaving it on a windowsill for a few hours) Review: would i buy this ,no - Can not understand why the date and day is so difficult to see . Somebody as surely got this wrong , other than that the watch keeps good time . ## Features - Case - - Case Material: Titanium - - Case Shape: Round - - Case Colour: Grey - - Crystal: Sapphire crystal ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0C5DKSBY1 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Band Colour | Black | | Band Material Type | Leather | | Band Width | 10 Millimetres | | Bands | 1 | | Best Sellers Rank | 466,877 in Fashion ( See Top 100 in Fashion ) 3,326 in Men's Wrist Watches | | Brand Name | Citizen | | Case Diameter | 42 Millimetres | | Case Material Type | Titanium | | Case Thickness | 10 Millimetres | | Character | No aplica | | Clasp Type | Buckle | | Closure Type | Buckle | | Country Of Origin | Japan | | Crystal | Sapphire Crystal | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 58 Reviews | | Dial Color | Black | | Display | Analogue | | Embellishment Feature | Crystal | | Face Style | Modern | | Included Components | Gift Box | | Item Shape | Round | | Item Type Name | Watch | | Item Weight | 52 Grams | | Manufacturer | Citizen | | Manufacturer Part Number | BM8560-29E | | Model Name | BM8560-29E | | Model Number | BM8560-29EC | | Pattern | Solid | | Power Source | Solar Powered | | Special Features | Glow In The Dark, Solar Powered | | Sport Type | Walking | | Strap Type | Leather | | Style Name | Classic | | Theme | Modern | | Warranty Type | Limited | | Watch Movement Type | Eco-Drive | | Water Resistance Depth | 10 Metres | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Images ![Titan BM8560-29EE Mens Wristwatch - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616HCuuQEeL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, solid, depedable watch.
