This thread did give me a gift idea though :lol:

Got dad a citizen eco drive for his birthday. Hope he likes it. I suspect he'll appreciate the fact that it *should* never have to be opened up or have the battery replaced.

Probably a gay toy cheapo watch to some of you folk though, like a cort or shine :lol:

leather is comfier than plastic (for watches).

Good. Never have to be charged + titanium = dad should like it. I was just worried for a second that citizen were cr@p for a second :lol: I *presume* tonemonkey was joking, and I just know little enough to not spot it @lol:

Dave, how can you know you dont like it when you never tried it??

[dave_mc]

oh i thought you were talking about plastic and leather watch straps :lol: :lol: :lol: :oops:

[ToneMonkey]

Ha ha, just the usual gay dad joke.   :lol: :lol: :lol: They're nice watches.  Just aiding along the onset of the filth.

I used to have a titanium Pulsar and I loved it.  Really light (about a quarter of the weight of my current watch).  The only problem that I had was that the titanium pins in the strap kept breaking.

I know a couple of people with Citizen watches and never heard one of them complain about them.  Got a link to the one you've got your dad?
