Our take on the Citizen Drive Grey Dial Mens Watch BM6983-00H

The Citizen Drive BM6983-00H is a 42 mm casual watch with a rose gold-tone steel case, a grey dial with rose gold hands and index markers, and a brown leather strap. It runs on Citizen's Eco-Drive E111 movement, charged by light, so it never needs a battery change. A date window at 3 o'clock, a screw-down crown and 100 m water resistance round it out. It suits someone who wants a warm two-tone look without the upkeep of an automatic; against mechanical rivals at similar money it trades a sweeping seconds hand and exhibition case back for set-and-forget accuracy, and its mineral crystal is a step below the sapphire on pricier pieces.

Questions and answers

Does it need a battery?
No. The Eco-Drive E111 movement is charged by light, so there is no battery to replace. Keep it where it gets regular light, and it will keep running.
Is it safe to swim in?
It is rated to 100 m with a screw-down crown, which covers swimming and showering. Avoid pressing the crown or diving deep.
How does it compare with an automatic watch?
It is more accurate and needs no winding or battery service, but it has a quartz tick rather than a sweeping seconds hand and no exhibition case back.
What size wrist does it fit?
The strap is 22 mm wide and 8 inches long with a tang clasp, which suits most average wrists. A larger wrist may need a longer strap.
What is in the box?
The watch on its leather strap, with Citizen's documentation. It does not include a spare strap or travel case.
Is the crystal sapphire?
No. It uses scratch-resistant mineral crystal, which is less hard than sapphire.
