Sure there are going to be those who look at their depth meters and smile thinking about suiting up for a dive in the near future, but as far as many people are concerned it is a feature best reserved for when you are diving. The feature is so specific in its purpose that it is totally useless unless you are actually underwater. So, is it nice enough to wear full-time even when you are out of the water?įor me, that has always been an issue with watches containing a depth meter function. Citizen has clearly focused on actual dive utility which says something solid about the overall Promaster range of watches. Legibility and utility are very good considering that this is not a typical dive computer. This is one of the Eco-Drive Promaster collection’s most useful timepieces, incorporating (among other features) a chronograph and depth meter into a dive watch.
#CITIZEN PROMASTER AQUALAND BJ2120 07E SKIN#
That means a fresh and upgraded skin for an existing movement. You might also be interested in our reviews on these two other Citizen watches: the colorful Altichron BN5030 or the diving masterpiece, the BN2029 Promaster Aqualand.Citizen’s newest Aqualand model takes a familiar movement and concept and dresses it up in an even nicer suit. If you want one of the best dive watches on the market which will offer an improvement in your style / status and you are willing to pay a bigger price for that, then the Citizen Aqualand BJ2115 is the watch for you. It is a finely crafted masterpiece which comes with smart functions for both divers and regular users alike. Another sweet feature that is not so present on other dive watches is the dive meter which measures the depth of the water and displays it in feet.Īs a final note, I would mention that the Citizen Aqualand BJ2115 is not a watch for everyone. This is especially useful because you will never have to swap batteries. The Eco-Drive technology assures that the watch is always charged just by exposing it to light. Anyways, at least, the paint is bright and will make the watch readable in most environments. I don’t like that Citizen choose dots so small for the hour indicators. However, the rubber band perfectly complements the feel of the brushed stainless steel thus making it perfectly suitable for every kind of wetsuit or other clothing for activities which imply water.Īs you can see in the above image the illumination is fine although not as good as the Seiko’s LumiBrite. It features one large screw down crown on the right side along with two smaller crowns for the chronograph and other adjustments. It is made of a quality stainless steel that I would say is a little too much brushed in order to look shiny. Now that this aspect is clear we can talk about the case. At a case diameter of 50 mm, the feel on the wrist is quite significant this is why I would not recommend it for people with smaller wrists. So the advantages of it won’t be just pragmatic but will also positively impact your relationships and prestige.įirst and foremost before looking at any other aspect, it is imperative to say that the watch is huge. This is why the Citizen Aqualand BJ2115 is not just a serious Dive Tool but also a piece of jewelry which creates status and added value to your image. This is a luxury looking watch that turns heads and will surely make your friends and business partners ask you about every aspect of it. The Citizen Aqualand BJ2115 is yet another example of the continuous improvement that Citizen assumed. Citizen was founded in 1918 and it continues to surprise with the new watches they come up with to the market. Everybody had a Citizen watch due to their reliability and affordable price tag. Citizen is one of those watch companies that you know from your childhood.
