[HBF0001] Purchased in Japan

I had to visit 8 different seiko dealers to get my hands on this, was sold out pretty much everywhere in Tokyo this past week. They didn’t even have it at the flagship in Ginza. Lovely watch!

Dive Chronos are amazing for cooking

I like to be able to time two separate things, one on the Tachymeter and the other on the bezel. This is my first Orient, and I am wearing it more than my Seikos and Rolexes. Just so useful at the gym, and while timing things in the kitchen.

Citizen, if you’re listening 🙏

I’ve wanted this watch to exist for as long as I can remember.
Citizen should build an ISO-certified Promaster moonphase diver.
200-300m water resistance, Eco-Drive, sapphire crystal, fully lumed bezel, and a lumed moonphase. I’d keep it a real tool watch, not a dress watch pretending to be a diver.
The Blancpain Bathyscaphe Moonphase proved the concept works. I’d love to see Citizen do it in their own way at a price enthusiasts could actually afford.
In my head it’s always had a deep blue dial with gilt accents. The gilt reminds me of the moon reflecting off a dark blue ocean during a night dive. I’d buy that watch in a heartbeat.
I’d call it the Aqua-Luna… maybe the Nautaluna.
I know it’s a niche idea, but Citizen has never been afraid to make interesting Promasters. An Eco-Drive moonphase diver feels like a project only they would really do.
Does anyone know how to get a product idea in front of Citizen? I’d love to pitch this. I’m not giving up on it.
