Beautiful, comfortable, accurate -- Citizen does it again

This watch is stunning. Looks much better in person than in photos. It is large, but the black bezel/silver chapter ring/black ring around the dial combination makes it appear much smaller than its dimensions would suggest. I do have a larger wrist though so I'm not bothered either way. The finishing on this watch is excellent. The dial has an awesome effect to it that matches the bracelet center links quite nicely. Speaking of the center links, the effect is quite subtle in most lights, which is kind of nice. The dial is eye-catching enough; it doesn't need loud center links to make an attractive watch. But the recrystallized titanium center links are there nonetheless, and the accentuate the H-link bracelet style nicely in my opinion. Not my first F950 Attesa, as I also have the black and gold Hakuto-R CC4016-75E. Functionality on these watches is amazing. Satellite works like a charm in seconds, chronograph is there if you need it, alarm works but is not very loud. Citizen has flattened out the bezel on these newer Attesas, including this Platinum Shine model, which I think makes this watch wear thinner than my Hakuto-R (it is actually a little thinner too, since it doesn't have a commemorative case back, but I think the bezel is actually doing more visual work in the appearance of thinness than the case back). In sum, I love this watch. It's fantastically comfortable, perfectly accurate, looks incredible, and I've been wearing it non-stop since it arrived. As much as I love the black and gold Hakuto-R, I have to say this one is much more suited to daily wear.
