Maybe this time?!
I ordered this from Amazon in December and promptly forgot about it. It arrived quite unexpectedly yesterday.
I took off the blue strap it came with, I didn't like the colour or feel of it. I have it on the good old Nato for now.
I have had the gold bezel Wingman since school.
It's still going strong.
You can't fault their build quality

Fresh from the Postman this afternoon.
Bracelet roughly sized to give it a whirl tonight.
It feels great on the wrist, the length of the clasp is the only niggle, and the same problem I have with all Citizen bracelets, I need a half link out for a proper fit.
I was never quite sure if I liked these or not from the photos I had seen. Now I have one in front of me, I can see the lovely shape of the bushed case with polished edges and the nice clear dial with applied markers for myself. I prefer this to my Prime right now.
Pretty happy with this, been after a panda/ reverse-panda for awhile now and the 8110 just ticks all the boxes for me!
My Citizen Chronomaster. Titanium, immaculately finished, immensely wearable at 37mm and under a centimetre thick - it's a keeper.
A very cool moon phase and chronograph complication with an eye catching design. When I searched eBay for a moon phase chronograph there were about 12 of these but none of the other citizen variations so I snatched up the best priced one from the highest rated seller. So comfortable to wear.

My first Citizen, a 46 mm ecsophere, Eco Drive. It does wear big on my smallish wrist but the heck.

New strap for this one. My go-to diver as I wear my watches on the right wrist, so the crown doesn't dig in with this one!
I've noted the PMX56-2591 in Tokei's earlier post, but does anyone have either the 2811 or 2812 Air Diver ?
On spec these look pretty good, circa 40mm by 11mm deep, 20mm lugs. Not totally convinced by titanium but otherwise pretty neat.
Just love this watch and even keeping a Rolex of my wrist most of the time.
A GPS watch with a clean face and in my opinion far nicer than the Seiko Astron versions.
This is now £845 RRP and got it for £375 so much watch for the money.
Very difficult to photograph due to the Sapphire Crystal made with DLC Coating and Titanium this is the Citizen Altichron Cirrus.
New in and needs setting up, dial is stunning. If it wasn't for the text on the dial I think you would have a hard time working out this is solar driven.
Shogun rival, the wonderfully named PMX56-2812!
Both 200m titanium divers, one auto one eco - both great!
Gruppo shot with my Shogun as a reference.
I had one of these , and an amazing watch for the money . Citizens answer to Seiko skx007 however I literally had to take the watch off turn it upside down to change the time because of the crowns position , cannot get on with a lefty after all , other than that it's a great watch

Had the batteries changed a little while ago, pleasantly surprised it passed the pressure test (100m) without problems.
Very underrated, a superb pick up and go watch.

Found myself drawn to the ti Ray Mears watch and low and behold it appears on the OP, wondering if anyone could shine some light on the ‘unrepairable’ comment by Electorn as his reason for initially flipping? GMT16750 then introduces me to the very similar 6400 model, forgive my obvious lack of Citizen knowledge but is this available in ti and does it have the same movement as the Ray Mears model/ is it serviceable? Thanks

The Ray Mears and other monocoque type Citizens are repairable. I recently took apart a gmt monocoque pre-Ray Mears (probably 15 years old and some) and changed the battery, the glass for a sapphire, the crystal gasket, bezel gasket and one of the 2 crown gaskets. Most parts held by Cousins, and a bit of homework finding compatible parts from current models where not listed for the actual case number.
Ah, thanks for that, I read most of the thread and saw that you’d managed a service, didn’t realise the (referred to) issue was lack of spare parts... Which I suppose leads to my next query, if at some future date I get my hands on a ti/6400/gmt can I make use of your servicing experience...?

Anyone else experiencing perfect cognitive dissonance about the above ^ ?
I think it's absolutely ugly, but I really really like it.
Looks unique.
Quite a fan of Citizen divers.
Great quality without being too big/thick and excellent accuracy.
Have these two currently.
