In-Depth The Citizen Aqualand:
The year 2019 marks the 30th anniversary of Citizen’s Promaster line, a series of watches that have become well known as true tool watches, often recommended to those looking for a "beater" or a "travel watch" due to their ruggedness, functionality and affordability. Those watches, built for air, sea, and land, have had familiar names like Altichron, Nighthawk, and Aqualand, as well as numerous variations of dive watches, from automatics to quartz, to solar charged Eco-Drive. But four years before Promaster became an official name in the Citizen lineup, the first generation Aqualand was a dive watch that broke new ground while, ironically, foretelling the end of an era – that of the true diver’s watch.

With the lilt of Irish laughter
Every day and in every way
Now forever and ever after."
