Citizen bn0151-09l mini review

Post by toxicavenger » Wed Jul 22, 2015 6:25 pm

Someone on the forum (they know who they are) told me about a great deal on one of the new Citizen bn0151-09l so I went ahead and picked it up on the DL.

Well what a fool I have been :banghead: , this watch rocks!!!! :cheers: Yes it is around the same price as a SKX007 but I like everything about this watch. Heck the lume is nuclear on it and the case fits perfect on my wrist. The bezel has just a little back play but not much. Crown is a little rough screwing it in but I will put some lube (yes Terry preferred lube) on it later on. The second hand hits all of the markers perfectly and after boiling the silicon strap it feels really good.

Now I might have to look out for a bracelet for it and maybe a real rubber strap for it in the future. Man I am really impressed by this watch!!!! :thumbsup: Oh and the blue bezel and dial works perfectly together.

Some quick pics of it.

Looks decent. I've considered these before too.

Lug width 20, 22, or a funky size?

Blue Isofrane might look nice.

How much was the deal?

I like this one a lot. Have almost bought one several times. Did you get in on the $118 price at JC Penny? Missed out on that one or would have finally bought one.

yes, but right after I bought it the link didn't work any more so they must have sold out of them right away. i also had a coupon so I actually got it for 108 then I paid shipping on it

Killer deal! When they first showed up on WUS cheapest I found one was $140/$150 range. Then everyone sold out and prices went up.

Wear this out in public -- this watch gets tons of snatch.

$118 is the watch deal of all time IMHO. I really dig this citizen a lot! Nice score, Terry!

I picked this same one up as well. Great watch as Terry said. Of course I didn't get the deal Terry got :cussing:

If someone is looking for an inexpensive beater I'd recommend it.
