About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
Ref. NY0125-08W
I thought it was a bronze Citizen, but it's not, it's rose gold. It's not a spec monster either, it has mineral glass & a basic movement, but also not a bad price for a decent looking & reliable entry level auto which is ISO Divers compliant (which can't be said of a modern Rolex Sub date ). 8204 rotor can be a tad noisy as it runs freely & the watch itself is fairly thick at 13.7mm (see review below). The second hand on the 8204 movement hacks so you can set the time accurately.
Note: Citizen UK & H Samuel list the case width as 45mm, so I checked Citizen Japan which lists it at 41mm & I believe this to be correct.
Unless I'm mistaken, this JOMW review (
) is the same NY0125 base model, except a different colourway & the one I am posting is on a rubber strap, not a bracelet. There are wrist shots of the watch on the reviewers roughly average sized 7"/18cm wrist towards the end of the review.

sorted byAs for this watch, I'm really not a fan of the ruffled straps Diver watches often come with. What's with that? (edited)
Nice price if your in the market for one and you like the look of it. If be changing the strap immediately (edited)
Can’t see any on sale at the moment but I believe their “Italian” ones may be made by Bonetto Cinturini.
Alas, no bargains in 20mm to be had today. (edited)
Not sure why they offer up such a broad tolerance range, I assume it's for protection in case of a poor performing batch or something.
My experience is that movements like this (that aren't several years old & in need of a service) run roughly 5-12 seconds a day out. I can't think of one I have owned, past or present, performing worse than that & there are probably a couple that run better. Most entry level movements can even be regulated or even adjusted for optimum performance if desired. (edited)
