Deal | This sleek all-black Citizen Eco-Drive dress watch is 54% off right now

Citizen’s Axiom lineup is all about minimalism. Clean, uncluttered dials and sleek stainless steel construction define the Axiom’s appeal as a refined dress. Among the many minimalist watches the lineup offers, the AU1065-07E is a standout option, with an all-black aesthetic that pairs with pretty much any attire or occasion. We’re seeing a great deal on this model that slashes its price by more than half, making it an excellent opportunity to add something elegant yet versatile to your collection. 

Amazon is offering the Citizen Axiom AU1065-07E for as low as $172.30. That’s a whopping 54% off its regular retail price of $375 and the lowest price we’ve seen for this variant—it beats the previous all-time low of $187.50. This is a seriously good deal considering Citizen US has this watch currently listed for $281.25 (after applying 25% Lunar New Year discount). 

Design is where the Citizen AU1065-07E really shines. It sports a 40mm stainless steel case with black ion plating, topped with edge-to-edge mineral crystal glass that gives the dial a seamless, glossy appearance. The black dial features a solitary 12 o'clock steel accent and a discreet date window, while the two-hand layout keeps the look ultra-clean. A black leather strap with a buckle closure completes the stealthy package, and at just over 52 grams, it’s light and comfortable for daily wear.

The watch features Citizen’s Eco-Drive movement, meaning it’s powered by any light source and never needs a battery replacement. It’s also splash-resistant and backed by a five-year limited warranty.

There is one trade-off to the watch’s stylish all-black design, though: legibility. Multiple reviewers on Amazon have noted that the black dial can be difficult to read in low light. In well-lit conditions, it’s perfectly usable, but in low-light environments, telling the time can become quite difficult. But then again, this is a watch that prioritizes aesthetics over quick-glance readability, and if you’re okay with that compromise, this is one of the best deals we’ve seen on a strikingly minimalist Eco-Drive.
