A quality watch with history
Well am I glad I finally took the plunge and bought this … absolutely love it! I have a few dive watches, DSSD, PO, SMP, Pelagos .. this new addition is in some very prestigious company and it fits in perfectly! Straight out of the box you can feel the quality on it, it looks fantastic, the size is perfect, it’s clearly legible, the iconic case design is instantly lovable and to top it of it hits the markers perfectly (which has been a problem for me with more expensive quartz watches that didn’t get to stay long) It didn’t take long for me to register the watch with Citizen for the extra 1 year warranty which now stands at an impressive 6 years, then onto the user manual which explains the multitude of features that aren’t going to be used by me but I no doubt will be talking the boys through down the pub sometime soon! This is a proper diver made for a purpose, and I would imagine it carries the job off perfectly. The strap that came with it .. not my thing so that’s been changed for a slightly less in your face silicone two piece. Great watch and a great price! Purchase of the year so far, don’t think about it .. get one!

Great Watch
I used one of these watches 22 years ago whilst diving, loved the watch and sadly it gave up ticking after about 18 years of use.I bought the current model for sale and had my doubts whether it would have all of the original features and design of the original. I can say that I am hugely happy with my purchase as it is like putting my old watch on again, I love it. Apart from some minor differences on the back plate, not any to grumble about, its identical, including the ND Times on the wrist strap.I unfortunately don't use the watch for diving anymore but use it all the time for general use and would recommend to anyone who wants an excellent, outstanding "old time piece" to purchase one.

Citizen Aqualand JP2000 08E
I’m not usually a fan of Citizen Watches but the unusual design of this one along with the Analog/Digital display just grabbed me (& my wallet) by the short & curlies.This quartz caliber C520 watch has a 44mm stainless steel case with a screw down crown & crystal glass.No Q/C issues whatsoever & the 60 click bezel lines up perfectly with the indices & chapter ring.The only negative I have is that the strap width is 24mm, I would have personally preferred 22mm (although I did find a good alternative strap here on Amazon as shown in the picture)Would recommend checking this out if you into dive watches. :)

Truly iconic dive watch
Wanted one of these since I was a kid back in the 80s. Never going to replace my dive computer, but just for that retro cool factor, I love it.Just out of curiosity, I threw it in the pressure tester along with a modern dive computer, depth readings matched exactly, so its certainly accurate. But a limited number of dive logs (just 4) and quite small depth display, mean it's never going to compete with the modern equivalent.Included strap is a bit stiff and uncomfortable too, drop it on a good MN strap or a NATO/Zulu and you're good to go.

This watch is the bomb
This watch is true classic. Very beautiful lines. It is rugged and elegant at the same time. Quality stuff, everything is lined up, no QC issues on my second attempt, the first one had a spec of dust in the dial and was sent back. It does not look to be bigon the wrist, which I was concerned about. Although I'm not much into quartz, I have to say, this watch stands out. I have to say it is my favourite watch. Wow, the sand blasting finish is also very nicely done. Don't think twice. It is a true classic.

Rugged watch
It is an icon from 80's, this is a great watch, with it's neutral design it makes it very good for every day wearing.It's size are good enough for reading in low light, I am not a diver so I can't verify it's qualities under water.I had the original model from 1986 and liked it so much and bought this new one, there are very little differences between them, but nothing major, things like the lid at the back used to have screw's, at the front where it reads diver it used to be just DM.So nothing major, still in my opinion still a great watch.
