Citizen Automatic Sport Luxury Steel Bracelet Watch, $405 (was $675)
Why do we like this deal?
Considered by many as one of the best watch brands, Citizen has taken its place among the best affordable watches today. It has become famous for its Eco-Drive watches, light-powered creations that last longer than anything else. But Citizen watches go far beyond this one iconic movement. As a great example, take a look at this automatic watch that’s now 40% off at Macy’s.
The Citizen Automatic Sport Luxury Steel Bracelet Watch is currently $405, which is $270 less than the standard $675. It’s a beautiful watch that avoids monotony with a Batman-esque color scheme that still manages to avoid clashing with bold colors in a costume.

What shoppers need to know
- size: 42mm
- Agitation: automatic
- Complications: day/date window
- water resistance: up to 100 meters
The watch has a solid blue dial, like the sky on a summer day, with markers for the hours above the numbers. In fact, the watch has markers for the number of minutes (10, 20, etc.) and markers for the date via a day/date window at the three o’clock position, but no hour numbers. The result is the refined and sophisticated look that Citizen is known for.
Although this watch doesn’t use Citizen Eco-Drive technology, it is automatic, charging from your wrist movements, meaning this watch could survive a month-long underground expedition as long as you move your wrist from time to time.

You can find this watch at Amazon or Walmart, but buying a Citizen watch at Macy’s has its advantages. The store offers free watch sizing at any of its stores with proof of purchase.
It’s a small thing, the size of the watch only costs around $20, but it’s also the kind of event that feels like total ownership, like when a restaurant provides mints after dinner after you’ve paid the bill.
The Citizen Automatic Sport Luxury Steel Bracelet Watch is down to $405 right now, but since it’s labeled as a clearance item, there’s not much left.
