Citizen Promaster Professional DivervsMarathon MSAR (Medium Search & Rescue) Diver's Quartz

The Citizen Promaster Professional Diver is noted for its robust, edgy design with industrial fonts and scratch-resistant Duratect MRK and DLC coatings. Reviewers highlight its intuitive and satisfying bezel locking mechanism and the substantial 4mm anti-reflective sapphire crystal. This dive watch utilizes an Eco-Drive E365 quartz movement, offering a 365-day power reserve and an end-of-life indicator, and is recognized as the first ISO 6425 compliant watch with a solar-powered movement.

On balance, the Citizen Promaster Professional Diver is recognized for its specialized, robust build and innovative solar-powered movement, though its size limits its wearability.

One owner finds the 36mm case comfortable after an initial adjustment period, while another reports accuracy within a few seconds of atomic time.
