The Promaster Aqualand Depth Meter has existed in evolving forms for many years as a popular dive watch choice for those looking to measure their depth as well as the time under water. As an amateur diver and watch lover, I make use of my dive/tool watches to actually dive.

This is especially interesting, since even with the omnipresence of dive computers, a dive watch, in my opinion, remains important while diving as it provides the secondary method (backup plan) for timing that any diver knows is critical and potentially life saving if something were to go awry. Acid Pro 4 Free Download Myegy. Some of the most complicated modern mechanical dive watches are the ones that have depth gauges. Not that typical dive computers do not include a depth measurement feature, but again, as a secondary source of redundancy, the dive watch with depth gauge is highly usable and practical. One of the most affordable, yet feature packed, dive watches with a depth gauge is the Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster Aqualand Depth Meter reference BN2029-01E (or Citizen Promaster Aqualand for short). As I venture into eventually becoming a master diver, I did not hesitate when Citizen wanted to send me one exemplar for my second trip to Key Largo, FL, in the past three years to dive in the marine sanctuary there. What follows here is a recap of three days diving with the Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster Aqualand diver.

Citizen is well known for their quartz watches, however, the Citizen company has a long history in horology dating back to 1924 producing pocket watches under the name Citizen but branded by Shokosha Watch Research Institute. Currently the most popular lineup from Citizen stems from their Eco-Drive watches which use a solar cell on the dial to charge a battery and fuel an accurate quartz movement. The great part about this technology is that watch can be powered by any light, solar, home light, and so on, and the battery is typically rated and guaranteed for a the lifetime of the watch. This makes for an accurate watch that requires very low maintenance. In the model I received, containing the Eco-Drive J250 movement, one charge will typically hold the watch working for 180 days and more (by going to standby mode) if the watch is kept in a poorly lit enclosure.

So far, I can attest that the battery charging has worked perfectly as the watch remained pretty much fully charged (easily seen by the power reserve indicator on the dial) since I received it a couple of weeks before the trip, and the sun in Florida constantly recharged it as I used it for diving. What makes the Citizen Promaster Aqualand particularly usable to me for diving are two unique features that are most commonly found in either dive computers or mechanical watches ten times the price of this one: a depth gauge with indication of current depth and max depth. If you look carefully at the dial above, you will see that besides the two skeletonized hands in white (indicating hours) and orange (indicating minutes), there are two other smaller hands shaped as pointy arrows in blue and purple. The first one indicates the current depth in meters and the other moves along but remains at the greatest depth achieved. For instance, in the picture above, you can see that I was at about 8 meters (26 feet) depth, whereas my max depth at the time was about 10 meters (or about 33 feet).
