Since 1918, Citizen has been noteworthy for its robust and reliable quartz and mechanical movements as well as being a trailblazer in watchmaking and innovation. The brand espouses both creativity and traditional craftsmanship and as part of their adventurous "The Citizen" release previously, the Japanese brand introduces visually similar mechanical options that are very pleasing to an aesthetic eye. While not part of Citizen's top-of-the-range "The Citizen" collection, we introduce today the new limited-edition Citizen "The Citizen" Super Titanium Indigo 100th Anniversary -Ltd Ed 600pcs to mark the extraordinary 100th anniversary of Citizen.
Citizen 'The Citizen' Super Titanium Indigo 100th Anniversary - Ltd Ed 600pcs Ref. AQ4100-65L |
This timepiece is made of 316L stainless steel with a multi-dimensional texture because of its high-polished and satin-brushed surfaces. Citizen's proprietary Duratect Platinum, the same as Seiko's Diashield - a hardened coating to help protect the watch from scratches, coats the super titanium case to showcase the durability and shiny surface of the watch. Moreover, the AQ4100-65L also has a titanium bezel for added longevity, a case size of 38.3mm in diameter, the watch has a thickness of 12.2 mm and a lug-to-lug of 46.5mm.
The indigo dial lends a calming subtle vibe to the timepiece, perfectly accentuating a certain elegant mantra. This versatile hue can go from dressy to sporty in the blink of an eye. Besides, the dial was meticulously hand-polished to provide its trademark high sheen. Dauphine hands with applied baton indices and a double-baton at 12 are also used in this artistic timepiece. A date aperture can be found at 3, adding a useful complication while not diverting attention away from the dial's proportions.

For such a magnificent dial, one certainly deserves the absolute clearest view possible. The dual spherical scratch-resistant sapphire dial is coated with Citizen's proprietary 'Clarity Coating' anti-reflective treatment, suppressing reflections by accomplishing 99% light transmission. Even in bright sunlight, it is almost like the glass simply disappears.
For those who likes to go about their daily activities, rejoice! This watch boasts a solid water resistance of up to a hundred meters! Moreover, this watch also contains the high precision Eco-Drive A060 movement that has proven reliable and robust. The movement is rated by Citizen to have an accuracy of an astonishing +/- 5 seconds a year, satisfyingly aligned to every second marker on the dial as the second-hand ticks into place. Being a movement fuelled by natural and even artificial sources of light, no periodical battery replacement is required. Additional features that can benefit the wearer include the perpetual calendar, date display, the date early correction function, and the time difference setting function of the watch. Held in the case with a screw-in caseback signed with Citizen's prestigious eagle crest.
