Though my main gripe is that tilted date display. It will trigger my ocd just looking at it.
a lot of watches have date at 4 o'clock
I know. But why?
I mean when did it become a thing?
Always been a thing. See @garage sale's comment
yeah, allows bigger lume at the 3'oclock position … when under water you usually don't check date and these aren't targetted at desk divers , the rubber straps kills shirt cuffs …

Today i learnt.
@xoom: Agree that 4 o'clock if fairly common yet still tasteful.
I've seen much worse on a lot of watches.
6 o'clock is the best for symmetry or no date, but at least with solar you won't have to set it often.
Colourway is personal, this one is a bit out there, but unique and cool (not sure if limited ed but great price). i wouldn't wear it much personally (but have the unite with blue and dig that).
I concur about the black/gold one, it is 1000x better IRL than the pictures.
I like them both though, and the blue one is just so…happy. So I'll probably end up with the complete set.
Same here. Got the LE one for $450, just have to wait for the black one to get cheaper
$397 is pretty good, it would look great on you..
I just don't wear gold in general but love the combo.
@rosebank: That looks interesting just having a look. Not sure about them, they don't look a 2k watch (type of thing)..
Lumibright is cool
It's a fun obsession although it would be good to do a cull one day and just get 5 really good ones.
Some kind of high precision quartz be nice (paper dial or similar), and omega or tudor :P
As long as you try and wear a lot of them.
I like the watch face , should have been steel bracelet
Nah, the colour of the strap makes it pop. Gold bracelet will be too much gold
Yeah you are right 👍
Yo this is beautiful
drip +100
Very nice colourway..
A serious consideration
Surprising coming from you. I got the notification and fully expected you to rip on my weird taste
Hahaha turquoise is one of my all time fav colours. I just don't like rubber bands
Mine is seafoam green. Turquoise are close enough
and those citizen bands are a very hard rubber, feels like plastic not as soft/comfortable like the seiko ones.. although they wouldn't attract as much dust.
Are Eco drivers just solar quartz movements made by Citizen?
Eco-Drive, but yes.
Not my style of watch, but I'm really liking that colour combo!
That colour scheme is repulsive , citizen didn't think this out .
I'd just say it's different or out there
As is so often the case, the renders don't do the colours justice. In person, the blue dial on this one is excellent.
Or, if you like, almost a Ukrainian flag on your wrist.
Yep, Fujifilm inks on the unite with blue limited edition ;)
Starbuy returns serve, $385 if you can't get the signup offer from WD.
Same for the back/gold variant.
Not doing it for me. I prfer the black one in you second link.
