Watchlords

Citizen celebrates this year the first-ever titanium wristwatch's 50th anniversary, quite an achievement in watchmaking. In 1972, the Japanese brand also launched its first Bullhead Flyback Chronograph, an odd wristwatch, back then, powered by the sophisticated caliber 8110A, featuring flyback function and push-buttons placed at twelve, hence the nickname "Tsuno," which means "Horn" in Japanese.


The 2020 commemorative edition embodies fifty years of technical prowess and product innovation and showcases two of Citizen's state of the art technologies: Eco-Drive™ and Supertitanium™. It is not Citizen's very first attempt in combining Supertitanium™ and Eco-Drive™ in a Bullhead, though. If you're a watch geek, you won't forget that Citizen introduced a 1000-piece Limited Edition Bullhead, exclusively available in Singapore, combining both technologies, although not as advanced as this edition, given the continuous evolution and improvement processes ongoing at Citizen.

Really like the case and lugs. Definitely something different

I agree with you. Really liking the panda version. I wonder how it would function underwater?

I doubt it

I prefer the Panda version as there is a lot going on with that dial. Might be something for my son-in-law.

Definitely the Panda.

There's a lot going on in these watches. An awful lot. But that's fine. If there's any major issue with them, it's the same one as in every Citizen chrono - the awfully fucking slow chrono reset. The chrono seconds hand takes ages to return to 12.

These give me wood. Am currently eyeballing so many Citizens it should be a crime.
