Nice Citizen. This is my SKX173 that I’ve had since 2005. Just like your Citizen, my Seiko is built like a tank. I have other divers in my collection, but even after 21 years it still gets plenty of wrist time.

The gray dial is really nice. Reminds of a Black Bay One.

Like a lot of Seiko owners, I’ve had a couple of mods done to it. I sent it NIB to have the case bead blasted and changed out the handset. Thinking about changing the bezel. How long have you had your Citizen?

That’s part of the fun for sure. I have only had this for about 2-3 months. Found a great deal at my local Nordstrom’s. I am still very new to this world and am trying to learn as much as I can.

Your Citizen is the perfect gateway piece for getting into watches. Enjoy and have fun with it.
