Whether you’re a serious watch collector or are just starting out, adding a dive watch is a no-brainer—they’re tough, good-looking, and highly functional. This unique take from Citizen on the classic dive watch design is ISO-compliant, anti-magnetic, anti-shock, water-resistant to 200 meters, and has a one-way elapsed time bezel, super luminosity (up to 6 hours), and an easy-to-use stainless steel bracelet that can fit over a wet suit. The design, though, is the biggest selling point, boasting a striking silver-tone stainless case with a blue, three-hand dial and bezel indentations that are reminiscent of an orca’s black-and-white patterns. It’s also light-powered by way of Citizen’s vaunted Eco-Drive tech, so you never have to wind it or worry about changing a battery.
Happy customers loved that the stunning dive watch is functional and beautiful. "Looks great—punches way above its weight," said one. Another commented: “I wanted a hearty dive watch that I can wear every day for fishing, swimming, and boating on the bay and ocean—the Orca is perfect for my needs.” A shopper who actually dives liked the bracelet’s adjustability, saying, “The best thing is the metal band has a feature to increase in diameter so it fits over your wetsuit sleeve.”
Other shoppers like the overall design and aesthetics of the big diver. One said that the “dial is perfectly executed with fantastic lume on the oversized markers and handset.” And another liked that it’s “built like a tank.”
It’s always fun to add a new watch to your collection, but high prices can be a deterrent. At almost $300 off, though, this dive watch is a must-buy. It’s high quality, comes from a trusted brand, and offers a unique and striking design that sets it apart from all other dive watches. Plus, it’s very functional and is ready to take you to the depths. This sale won’t last long, so add it to your collection now before the savings wash away.
