I present to you my Casio Duro Marlin with the marlin on the dial and on the case back, because now and for a long time it is no longer found in this configuration in France and in Europe... I have had this diver for years and apart from changing the battery every three years I have never had a problem I am very attached to it, it is solid and robust and even with the 43mm diameter with its rounded and short horns it does not shock the wrist, it has a screwed crown and its water resistance is 20 ATM

I present to you my Vostok Komandirskie ISS, in fact this Russian watch has a history that can be easily verified on the internet... This is the Vostok Komandirskie of the Russian military space forces. This watch was worn in the ISS, the badge visible in the upper part of the dial of the watch is that of the launch teams of the space forces of Baikonur in Kazakhstan and Plesetsk in Russia. It has a Vostok Caliber 2414A with 17 jewels and its diameter is 40mm it has a screw-down crown and a power reserve of 36 hours and the bezel is bi-directional, I really like this special and space watch it is my only Vostok watch and I will never part with it it was delivered to me with a blue nato but I alternate with a Milanese mesh.

I bought my Yema Meangraf Y70 2 years ago on the Yema website and I am very happy with it. This watch is with a hybrid mechanical quartz Seiko VK64 movement. This watch has a reinforced racing look for this bi-compax chronograph with its kilometer bezel and its yellow and white hands in contrast with the dark gray dial. The steel mesh bracelet of the Meangraf Y70 was made of Milanese mesh for more flexibility and finesse. The clasp is engraved with the historic YEMA logo and adjusts quickly and very easily.

My Yema Meangraf

I present to you my Citizen Promaster NY0040-17LE Automatic Watch…I really like this Japanese diving watch, a watch that is solid and that I find aesthetic, it is often compared to the Skx from Seiko, my Citizen Promaster has a diameter of 42mm…and a mineral glass which is the only flaw that I find with a sapphire glass it would have had a perfect score for its price which is 230 euros. I admit that I have a weakness for Japanese watches, and French watches from the Yema and Lip brands.

I present to you my Seiko 5 Sports SRPD61K1 that I have had for a few years but that I do not wear often ... while this watch from the Japanese brand is pleasant and easy to wear and not too heavy, I still always have great pleasure in putting it on my wrist, the green of the dial changes color depending on the light which is a beautiful effect, Seiko fans tend to call it the Seiko 5 Hulk ... the dial glass is in Hardlex (reinforced mineral) it has an ATM of 10 and a diameter of 42.5mm.

Citizen was founded in 1918 in Japan by Kamekichi Yakamazi of the Shokosha Watch Research Institute in Tokyo. Now one of the world's largest watch companies, recognized for its innovative watches and cutting-edge technology. The history of Citizen begins with the launch of its first pocket watch in 1924, called the "CITIZEN".
<h2 dir="ltr">History of the Citizen brand</h2>
This watch was equipped with a high-quality mechanical movement and was highly valued for its precision and reliability. It quickly gained popularity, establishing the foundation of Citizen's reputation in watchmaking.
Over the following years, Citizen continued to innovate and push the boundaries of watchmaking technology. In 1956, the company introduced the world's first pocket wristwatch, which revolutionized the way watches were worn. This innovation paved the way for a new era of more practical and functional watches. In the 1960s, Citizen released several revolutionary watches, including the Citizen Parawater, Japan's first waterproof watch, and the Citizen Cosmotron, the country's first solar-powered electronic watch. These technological advances have solidified Citizen's position as a pioneer in the watch industry.
Citizen has also played a key role in the quartz watch industry. In 1973, the company introduced the Citizen Crystron Solar Cell, the first quartz watch powered by solar energy. This innovation paved the way for a new generation of more precise and durable quartz watches with the 1976 launch of the technology&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/citizen/eco-drive">Citizen Eco-Drive</a>.
Over the decades, Citizen has continued to introduce new features and technologies into its watches. In 1993, the company launched the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/citizen/promaster_aqualand">Citizen Promaster Aqualand</a>, a diver's watch that has pushed the boundaries of underwater performance. It was equipped with features such as measuring depth and diving time, which allowed divers to explore the seabed safely.
In the 2000s, Citizen began developing ecological watches. In 2008, the company introduced the Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite Wave, the first solar-powered watch capable of receiving satellite signals for optimal accuracy around the world. This revolutionary technology eliminated the need to change batteries, providing a more durable and convenient solution for watch enthusiasts. Over the past few years, Citizen has maintained its leading position in the watch industry. The company continues to innovate in design, technology and sustainability, while maintaining its commitment to quality and precision.
Today, Citizen is a globally recognized brand, offering a wide range of watches to suit all tastes and needs. Whether for lovers of classic watches, diving watches, connected watches or sports watches, Citizen offers varied options meeting the expectations of consumers around the world. Citizen is one of the 3 major Japanese watchmaking groups with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/seiko">Seiko</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/casio">Casio</a>.

<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Citizen watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Citizen watches change regularly and vary depending on the model. Most cost between $400 and $800 depending on the models and finishes. As an example, a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/citizen/eco-drive_diver_200m">Citizen Eco-Drive</a> starts to $250 and the top of the range Citizen with the collection&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/citizen/the_citizen">The Citizen</a> oscillates between $3,000 and $7,000. Prices also fluctuate depending on the distributor, and promotions sometimes allow you to benefit from a more competitive price. The second-hand market is also an opportunity to look at to buy a cheaper Citizen.

Citizen Promaster Titan

And it will certainly not be the last one, Citizen really offers timepieces with one of the best RPQ on the market
The titanium of this watch really seduced me, the comfort it induces due to its lightness on the wrist is fantastic
The color of the bezel gives it a maritime and vintage look, the brightness of the dial and the combination of the silver of the indexes and the blue itself varying from more or less dark depending on the brightness and another obvious asset of this watch
Really a very good surprise at a price defying all competition on titanium of this quality


My first Promaster

And two! barely recovered from the summer joy and pleasure that my Fujitsubo promaster gave me
Here I am just after the meet up in La Baule falling for a great opportunity with this promaster the more classic look but with a more worked bracelet and a navy sunray dial and a black bezel makes this watch strong and elegant
I am only a few days into wearing it but it has already amazed me with its lightness and elegance and its face of an adventurer of the abyss
Citizen at the top of the RQP


Double whammy for this Promaster Marine Super Titanium

Impulse purchase
I wanted to buy a small, lightweight diver to go do my water sports at the lake.
It meets all the criteria.
Diver, lightweight, 20 ATM and classy…
This is my 3rd Citizen.
I love this brand for its philosophy, giving people watches at an affordable price and excellent quality/price ratio.
It is no longer in the catalog but can be found second-hand.
Mine is bought new

My Japanese Starbucks

This is my first diver, I chose it to go without fear in the sea, swimming pool and other water sports ... without headaches. Original with its crown at 8 o'clock, it is perfectly readable in all light conditions. In general, I wear it more easily in summer because living by the sea, I am often there. In addition, the rubber strap is really very pleasant to wear. I would add that its movement is reliable and robust. A real tractor! 
No wonder the Italian Navy chose it for its divers!

Original, pleasant and robust

I decided to celebrate summer by purchasing this Promaster.
I chose it because I wanted a robust, versatile and iconic watch. And yes, this watch is the more recent version of the ny0040 used for several years by the Italian Navy. Add to that my love for divers and here it is on my wrist
