40th Anniversary watch is just awesome.
I’ve owned two of these watches since 1987 (the first one stolen in 1998, second one leaked just recently- I wasn’t careful enough when I replaced the batteries), so now I have the third Aqualand, and it’s stunning! The satin gray finish and the gold details make it the best looking watch I’ve ever owned. I dive often, and have relied on these instruments as backup for my primary computer. I had a dive computer fail once, and my trusty Aqualand saved the day. I look forward to many more years with this watch. Great job, Citizen!
Im very happy that Citizen brought back this watch. It was rough on the secondary market as many of the older watches’ dive sensors don’t work. I’ve wanted this model for a while and hope citizen brings back other vintage models.
I had the original watch from the early 1990's. I loved that watch. I even wrote Citizen a couple times saying to bring it back! And they DID!!!! The minute I saw the ad for this, I purchased it. It is true to the original! While I have not taken it diving yet, It is like an old friend. I love it. It works great. It looks really cool - the way a REAL dive watch should! (Unlike 99% of all the pseudo dive watches out there.) I look forward to testing all the dive functions in Cozumel soon!
Miss the scuba tank on the 40th anniversary watch but otherwise very happy with my purchases I have the 1st, 30th, and now 40th maybe I'll see the 50th
I bought mine more than 40 some years ago and am having it completely refurbished this weekend. This watch has great sentimental value for me, having traveled with me through a jungle, through Central & South America, diving on drug planes and a submarine. It’s been everywhere! It’s old now and so am I but I can’t wait to get it up and running again after finally finding a place that will refurbish it!
Beautiful watch! My original had died and I needed a standby computer for diving. Some divers will want the old bezel with half-minute detents for a smoother ratchet. I haven't put it in the water yet but I'm looking forward to it soon. Naturally, I Love it!
This watch definitely brings back memories from when I was a teenager back in the 80s. It’s a great looking watch and feels great on the wrist.
This new reproduction anniversary edition If not for the case back cover would would be hard pressed to tell it from the origional. Back in the day the back cover was the shape of the case secured by 6 screws. My origional shown in the photo is still running strong after 40 or so years. I would really like to refresh the bezel dial which would return it to like new condition.
Fans of this watch, this is awesome. I honestly dont use it for diving, but the look, feel, and the way it sits on your hand is great. Its a limited edition, and if you are into diving watches this is really nice. The rotating bezel is great. In addition the stopwatch in the digital display is very helpful. I am constantly timing my activities one way or the other. It takes less than 5 minutes to set and these new Citizen Promasters are really easy to learn. Its a one time setup. Its also very light and the colors look really nice. I am going to pull it out of my watch collection now and put it on for the night!
