Agreed. And the left hand crown is a bit off putting.
Aesthetics wise or use wise?
I had a fugu that I had to turn upside down to set the time and hand wind. My hand eye coord just couldn't adjust to the reverse set-up.
I love my fugu, and like that at full extension, i dont have a crown digging into the top of my hand. I wind and set it before it goes on my wrist, so its a non issue.
It's fine for smaller wrists. I got one of these back in January and it fits my 6.5 inch wrist nicely.
Citizen seem to fit smaller than other brands for equivalent sizing.
I got one, beautiful watch.
NGL, probably the first watch you've posted @pissedpoor that I'd consider. Want to take a cheap dive into titanium. This one is not bard indeed. That sunburst blue has potential! The bezel is a little meh but again, tittytanium!
SS band with titanium case seems like a miss.
Weight advantage of all titanium is very noticeable on the wrist.
i bought green one FULL TITANIUM
Yeah I had one of these but sold it, I just didn't need more automatic divers.
Pretty good for $400, no way in hell worth RRP.
Would make a great beater, and good size - wears well on 6.5" wrist, better than the larger size on me.Like others say, the lefty crown is personally preference. I don't care for it, the bracelet is nice but not that comfortable (no taper), I put mine on a rubber strap, could hear the Miyota rotor spinning.
Overall not as light as you'd think being an automatic. I just prefer the BN eco-drives promasters with the flat case back, this and the fugu hide the case thickness with the recessed case back, which I don't like how it sits personally.
Still good value overall.
PS who said the bande is stainless steel, pretty sure titanium.
Linked listing states:
"Titanium Case
- Stainless Steel Bracelet "Good to hear this is likely a mistake in the listing, as wouldn't make sense to have the advantage of titanium in the case only.
Yeah I assumed it was an error in the listing, just checked on the Citizen website
>BAND: Titanium Bracelet, Push Button Buckle
https://www.citizenwatches.com.au/products/ny0100-50mCan see the finishing is the same but thought I'd check (and wouldn't make sense to make it SS)
Once you see grandpa's undies at 12 you can't unsee it.
The newer eco-drives don't have that at least.

Great watches those BN series Promaster Marine eco-drives. Don't personally like that colourway but have two others.
I would recommend over this auto titanium but depends what people want.
Even at only 42mm diameter, it still has a lug to lug of 48.5mm. Absolute borderline for spaghetti writers.
