I used to own eco-drives, but unlike kinetics (which is driven by rotor), there is little I could do to hasten the charging. And unlike solar g-shocks with charge indicators, estimating the charge on an eco-drive is like guesswork. If the watch is being brought out to wear after hibernation, I have to sun-tan my arm the whole day to get a reliable stream of power going... :oops: :oops: :oops: Since then I've stopped looking at eco-drives.

But I'm sure things have moved on, and they must be very good now :mrgreen:

the one i got is promaster coz it has the promaster logo on dial and crown... there is another variant without promaster logo on dial and crown.

mine came on the canvas strap. but i think it looks nicer on the bracelet.

2100 movement is so cool, has charge indicator also (though sometimes wimpy). Would say that one's a really good buy. Signature collection, a bit higher market, but don't think they've got reserve sundial.

Wah, LE Bullhead? That one has
