Had that exact one back in the day. Paid $90 for it on the bracelet and tubular green corduroy box. Nice bracelet and clasp. Crappy ran for a day Eco Drive movement. Ugly purple dial (looks black at some angles purple most of the time) Ended up trading it to Jack@IWW for a dial and hand relume and 2 other hand swaps. To this day I have sworn off Eco Drives as every one of the 5 I have owned have either craped out after a day or had QC issues (except for the SS Ecozilla on bracelet) which was just too damn heavy and big and didn't contour to the shape of my wrist. |

Did you have the monocoque case? There's several varieties. The monocoque case (Ray Mears) model is the only one that fetches a premium. Can't say that its deserved, but it is what it is. |

There is a similar non-Promaster look-alike (sort of). (vendor image)  |

Speaking of Citizen, anyone notice that Eli Manning is in the TV ads for them? He's been their corner whore for a least 2 years. And before that it was the Giants Shockey for Casio's G Shock watches. Them Williams chicks also pimped Eco Drives if I recall. |

He's been doing OK. We have a mantra here in the house - a cadence of "Pooooor Eli...." during every Giants game. It doesn't help that his o-line seems to think he can protect himself. |

I have no idea why he's playing so poorly this season . . . . maybe Mrs. Manning cut him off!  |
