BRAND NEW IN BOX WITH CITIZEN FACTORY WARRANTY & INSTRUCTIONS
Up for sale is the all new CITIZEN PROMASTER NIGHTHAWK GMT DUAL-TIME PILOT WATCH, with Citizen's unique Eco-Drive light power movement and water resistant to 200m.
This one here is the rare and superior Promaster Version of the Nighthawk. Watch enthusiasts seek out the Promaster Nighthawk because:
- unlike the basic version (BJ7000-52E) which has a "plain Jane" case back with flat laser-etched markings, the Promaster Version sports a beautifully engraved case back;
- the Promaster Nighthawk is made in Japan with Country of Origin ("Japan") inscription on the case back, whereas basic Nighthawks are assembled elsewhere (mostly in China) with Japanese movement;
Basic Nighthawks are excellent but, without a doubt, these factory upgrades elevate the Promaster Nighthawk to an altogether higher plane. I have owned both versions so I am speaking from first-hand experience. - here's your chance to acquire the superior Promaster Version
The Citizen Nighthawk range is undoubtedly one of the landmark wristwatch designs to emerge in recent years. As a package, there is much to enthuse about: the exquisitely detailed sunburst dial with GMT hand and sub-register, the light powered Eco-Drive movement, the rotating slide-rule inner bezel, the classically elegant stainless steel case (42 mm in diameter excluding the crown) and one of the best solid-link bracelets in the business.
Above all, the Nighthawk is user friendly. It is cleverly packed with useful features that you really want to try out. And, despite its imposing size, the Nighthawk is immensely wearable. In fact, many new owners have reported that they can't bear to take it off for weeks on end - so be warned! In a world full of contrived over-engineering and gratuitous technological overkill, the Nighthawk is refereshing for what it offers - sheer audacity and elegance of design, neatness of packaging, seamless combination of new technology and traditional know-how (what else would you call a slide rule?) - all at a very affordable price. Kudos to Citizen for daring to be different!
Notable features of the Promaster Nighthawk include:
- rotating slide rule inner bezel to calculate speed, distance, eta, fuel consumption and other navigational measurements;
- magnificent black sunburst dial with 24-hour/GMT hand and sub-register for dual-time function;
- main hour hand that can be set independently when travelling between time zones (or during bi-annual clock change), without disturbing the minute and second hands;
- screw-down crown for high-pressure water resistance up to 200m;
- quick-set date;
- technologically advanced Citizen Eco-Drive quartz movement (Cal. B877) powered by solar/light energy - no need to change batteries;
- highly luminous hour markers and hands.
