I have an eco drive from 2002 and it still works without any battery replacements. I'm tempted to get this, but mine still has a lot of life left.

Curious how you can tell how much left is left in it?

This is titanium case and bracelet and sapphire glass.

A lot of watches, when the battery is dying, will tick every two seconds to save on battery life and serve as a warning that you're going to need to replace the battery soon.

Not saying that's what his is doing, but that's one way to tell. I had a Timex do that for two years before finally dying lol, I guess it's not an exact science.

For those who have never worn a titanium watch, it's about half the weight of a typical bracelet watch. Normally very comfortable.

I think I understand that once the ticking gets wonky it probably indicates the battery needs replacement soon.

But it seems like a wild guess to say a watch has plenty of life left simply because the ticking is still strong. How can you be sure it wont start ticking strangely tomorrow? Next month?

No, they actually are not brand new. They are "a factory refurbished" watch even according to the seller. these are also sapphire glass and titanium bracelet. For the price difference, I would just buy the new one. That's me.

I have a couple of titanium watches and the weight difference is especially nice if you're getting a large 43mm-46mm watch. The titanium watches I have come out of the water looking great. I have one Citizen and a Breitling.

With these Eco Drive watches, a second hand skipping and ticking every other second usually means that the charge is low. It does not necessarily mean it needs to be replaced – it may have just been stored in the dark for too long, etc.

I've had Eco Drive watches for many years, and they do that when I wear one and leave the other one in a drawer for a while. Leave it in the sunlight face-up for an hour or two and see if it gets better. If not, you really may need to replace the watch (or the rechargeable battery if feasible).
