00:00 You always remember your first, right?
00:01 Well, for me, one of the first nice watches
00:04 I ever bought for myself was this right here.
00:06 This is the BN series.
00:08 It's very popular.
00:09 It's been around for a while.
00:11 But today, that very classic Citizen BN series Diver line
00:16 gets an upgrade,
00:17 along with one of my favorite features in a watch ever.
00:20 (upbeat music)
00:29 Hello everyone, and welcome to the Watch Outs.
00:32 I'm Bradley Hasemeyer.
00:33 And like I said at the intro,
00:34 I'm so excited to show you guys the newest offering
00:38 on Citizen's Promaster Dive EcoDrive collection.
00:41 All the same durable, practical, stylish elements
00:43 from the entire BN series line.
00:46 Now, it has a stainless steel bracelet.
00:49 Enough talking, let's do an unbox.
00:51 If you know Citizen,
00:52 you know they are awesome with their packaging.
00:55 Look at this.
00:56 Just open this box.
00:58 Reminder here, set, protect, register your watch.
01:00 Always a good idea.
01:02 The quality, the details.
01:03 This isn't just like a picture of a dive watch on the box,
01:06 or a picture of a dive tank on the box.
01:08 No, they're giving you this dive tank for presentation.
01:13 Now, when I first got it, I was like, do I do this?
01:15 Do I twist it?
01:16 No, you don't do that.
01:16 You just lift up.
01:18 Now, right as you see this watch,
01:21 it's such a powerful stance.
01:23 The gray sunray dial matches the gray bezel.
01:26 And I love the way this looks,
01:27 but I'm getting ahead of myself.
01:29 Let's talk specs.
01:30 This is the BN-016750H.
01:33 It's powered by EcoDrive.
01:35 Has a 44 millimeter stainless steel case and bracelet.
01:38 A gray sunray dial, and also comes in blue.
01:41 Has oversized hands for better visibility,
01:44 and a 200 meter depth rating.
01:46 Now, of course, one of the very first things
01:47 you're gonna notice about it is,
01:48 it's a classic dive watch.
01:50 In fact, it's using Citizen's
01:51 proprietary EcoDrive technology.
01:54 That means this watch is powered by light.
01:55 Any light.
01:56 The light coming from the windows here,
01:58 the light when you're at the pool,
02:00 the light when you're driving in your car.
02:01 All of that powers this watch, and I love that.
02:04 And that means you don't have to worry
02:06 about changing the battery,
02:07 and you don't have to worry about
02:08 literally millions of batteries
02:10 going in the landfills, not with EcoDrive.
02:12 Also, something else that's made the BN series
02:14 very popular is it's a ProMaster.
02:16 So this thing has professional level dive
02:18 credibility to it.
02:20 It's rated to 200 meters.
02:21 It has a screw down crown, a rotating bezel width.
02:25 (clicking)
02:27 A very satisfying click.
02:28 It has large hands, it's got lume.
02:30 I love the lume that they have.
02:32 Look at that.
02:33 And all of those aspects have been around
02:34 for the BN series for a while,
02:35 but this stainless steel bracelet is really the news.
02:39 It just adds this kind of even more polished
02:42 and professional look to it.
02:43 And I told you there's one of my favorite features
02:45 in any watch ever on this watch, and it's this.
02:50 This micro adjust built into the band.
02:54 So you can perfectly size it, get it ready,
02:57 and you're good to go.
02:58 A daily driver watch with a stainless steel bracelet,
03:01 an integrated adjust.
03:03 It's subtle, it's stylish, and it's powerful.
03:06 So what about you?
03:07 Do you already have one of these BN series watches?
03:09 Are you interested in this stainless steel bracelet?

03:24 Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to,
03:26 well, pretty much do whatever I want
03:28 because I'm rocking a light powered, dive rated,
03:31 beautifully made watch.
03:33 Like maybe go diving in the Maldives
03:35 or probably just the neighborhood pool.
03:36 But either way, it's gonna be fun.
03:38 Have a great day and remember, enjoy your time.
