I LOVE the look of this thing just pulled the trigger on one from Amazon for 150 during black Friday I had been eyeing it for a while and finally did it truly glad I did it's worth every penny
Congrats on getting this dive watch. I think they got this one right with excellent visibility day or night, not too big or small, nice bezel action, ISO certified diver, nice blue color.. great watch.
I bought one of these a couple of months ago I love it. I have been thinking of buying an orange strap too to match the orange hand. Now I have seen this I am going to order one as soon as I have finished watching this video.
Thx for the video, bought this watch in black, no doubt it is a well made sturdy care free diver, but couldn't believe it has a 44mm case it really wears small on my 7.3 inch wrist maybe because of the narrower 20mm strap? guess that's the downside of buying online without trying it.
Hi.. it is difficult sometimes without trying it on.. I noticed that most of the watches I want aren't in the stores just online. Sometimes you just can't anticipate things, good thing most accept returns. I recently sold a beautiful retro Bulova limited swiss automatic Devil diver. Stunning, really nice watch. But 2 things I didn't realize were, 1 the crown was really difficult to unscrew since it is set into the case, and needed to unscrew to set the time all the time. And second the case was large enough but it a much too small dial was much too small on my 7 1/4 to 7 1/2" wrist about the same size as yours. I couldn't telll either of these things from my reading or the videos I watched! On this blue Citizen diver it may be wearing small on your wrist because of the wider bezel and slightly smaller dial than some other 44mm divers, and like you said the smalish 20mm straps.
I have the BNO 150 ( Black version ). The watch itself is excellent, built like a tank with outstanding lume. I just ordered the BRAC 35 from Long Island Watch, they make stainless steel bracelets for the promaster divers. The rubber strap the watch came on isn't working for me after a month of wear. I'm going to dress it up just a bit. Good vid, thanks.
Thank you! I'm not a fan of the strap that comes with these divers, hence the orange one I have on it and i have a different generic brand of blue silicon strap to mix it up once in a while. I wish more brands would make divers like this one that is a more wearable size and weight.
Great looking watch and orange strap is so great combo with it. I looking to buy for myself this Citizen but im in hesitate what color, blue or black, because i want to pair it up with orange nato strap and i don t know witch color is going better, blue or black. Sweet pains... Big Hi for you from Serbia!
Hello Boris! Nice to hear from someone in Serbia. Both colors look great. I chose blue because so many of my watches are black i choose colors whenever I can.. Plus the blue on this watch looks really nice. Black is good too, goes with everything.. have you tried google images? type: black dial diver watch with orange strap.. maybe a bunch will come up to give you an idea what it might look like.
I had to buy the blackout G-Square that comes on the combi bracelet just to get it to put on my Japan market Teal G-Square. The bracelets alone that were sale on ebay were $120 the watch was $150 so I figure I'd have another watch.
I love sapphire crystals and have many watches with it, so I don't need one on this almost perfect dive watch. This is a true ISO certified diver, with mineral crystals much more shatter resistant than sapphire it makes sense for a diver especially in this price range. I've had 1 Rolex sub, about 10 Omega divers, and many others but this relatively inexpensive diver has all the right elements for a great diver: 200m, super legible dial, nice bezel, not to thick or heavy, just great all around.. I wish other brands would make more watches this size and weight. With all the color options available in this watch it's hard to pass up getting one, and they're easy to find at least 25% off on one.
Thank you! The watch is great.. I have many watches and this one is still one of my favorites and works perfectly like all my Citizens.. I love the bright lume, one of my favorite features of the watch.
I did! Yes reflections show up on it when I"m outside, sometimes the blue sky is on there until I do closeups, then it is in shadows and not seen. Good way to show what it really looks like when using the watch, on how clear it is to see with reflections.. Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Thanks for watching and the comment! This orange, not for everyone but I think it's awesome and matches the minute hand. But I switch straps all the time, I have a nice blue silicone watch that looks great it and wear that strap a lot. I think the blue strap that comes with it is not good at all.
