Citizen Zenshin Chrono Super Titanium vs Citizen Eco-Drive Military Field Watch

The Zenshin Chrono is the more substantial watch: a 43mm Super Titanium case, sapphire crystal, chronograph, tachymeter and a salmon dial that stands out. The Military Eco-Drive is the lighter, simpler field watch, around 60 g on a nylon strap, with a day-date and a clean black dial. Reviewers of the Zenshin praise the titanium lightness and the finish for the money; owners of the Military model like its low weight and legibility, but note the mineral crystal scratches and the stock strap is basic. Buy the Zenshin if you want a feature-rich sport chronograph; buy the Military if you want a tough, light everyday watch.

• Choose the Zenshin Chrono if you want a chronograph with a tachymeter, sapphire crystal and a titanium case and bracelet.
• Choose the Military Eco-Drive if you want a light, simple field watch with a day-date and a fabric strap.
