Feels the luxury on wrist. Delighted to see the quality and simplicity that went into the design of this masterpiece. Lucky to own one of 1300.
The watch is beautiful and holds time well. My only complaint is the presentation of the watch when unboxing/receiving the watch. For this to be one of the most expensive watches they sell, I expected more from the package. There was no special box. There was no limited edition plaque. There weren't any special papers. There weren't even instructions in the box on how to set the watch. At the time of this review, there weren't instructions on the website either on how to set the watch. My $280 Promaster Dive had a better presentation at 1/6th the price. I own multiple Citizen, Bulova, Accutron, and this packaging was the most underwhelming.

Man. No words can express how happy it made me to open up the watch box and see this beauty. It fits like a glove. I won’t be taking this off for a while!
I saw pictures of this watch several months ago, and I knew I had to add it to my collection. Though I am normally more of a silver/stainless kind of person, the combinations of colors and the texture of the dial really appealed to me. I ordered it last week, received it Tuesday, and am finally able to put it on my wrist today (Friday). I cannot stress enough, that photos of this peice really do not do iany justice. It is simply beautiful. The texture in the dial is just amazing, and the lume reflecting off of the dial is equally impressive! Citizen, you really knocked it out of the park with this one!!!
