7. Citizen Avion Eco-Drive

Silver stainless steel watches are great, but they’re also ubiquitous. Even a little color is jarring to most watch wearers, and that’s really unfortunate. When used tastefully, a little color can do a lot of good, and this is the case with the Citizen Avion.

This watch features a stunning rose-gold 45mm case contrasted with a rich blue dial – a winning combination. The watch features Eco-Drive, a chronograph complication and luminous hands. It also features 10 meters of water resistance and a mineral crystal face.

It takes cues from aviation watches with its spacing on the dial and overall presence. It’s also probably one of the better-looking watches on this list. It features a large legible dial with clear white numerals that make the watch even more stylish, all for roughly $200.

8. Citizen Eco-DRV AR 2.0

The Citizen AR 2.0 is the perfect casual everyday watch when G-Shocks are too tactical and dive watches are too showy.

The AR 2.0 features a textured dial with blue accents throughout the 44mm stainless steel case. It also features a date window at the traditional 3 o’clock position instead of the 4 o’clock position like other models we’ve seen.

It’s powered by Citizen’s Eco-Drive technology, which can run for months without recharging. It features 100m water resistance on a comfortable rubber strap.

Our favorite design detail is the tasteful blue accenting all around the watch, including the unique crown-guard and the crown. True to Citizen’s standards, the watch can be had for roughly $170.

9. Citizen NH8350-59L

People think that automatic watches have to be pricey, which is why many watch wearers will opt for quartz models. While many of the watches on this list feature Citizen’s Eco-Drive technology, Citizen also offers quality automatic watches.
