Hi guys, the question is simple, I am trying to learn from your mistakes because I don't have money to make my own.
And I thought we could share some stories too.

Be wary of used Citizen Eco Drive watches. Citizen discontinues movements quite regularly so you will find it hard to get it serviced 5 to 10 years down the road.

Eco Drive is just solar quartz. All you need to do is change out the battery (capacitor?) every 10-20 years.

It’s supposed to last 40 from what Citizen is claiming.
