I've always wondered why Citizen doesn't make a whole range of automatic divers when they make decent Miyota movements. Sure there's a place for solar powered quartz watches but to me it seems like they're missing the boat.

The last two iterations of this diver was 46mm. Freaking crazy, since they all look really good.

Man, that would be such a winner in 42mm.

Guys those specs are wrong.
No way that's 46.5mm with 20mm lugs.
A lot of times they list width including the crown

I know. I'm always confused by this especially when you consider that Japanese are in general shorter. I would have thought they would tend towards a smaller sized watches.

Agreed. The picture doesn't look like 46.5 with 20mm lugs

Still too big for me, but not in "WTF were they thinking" territory.

With only a 49mm L to L I'd say the width specs of 46 are exaggerated as well. About $300 USD here.

Spectacular looking diver. 43 is OK for me. Looks like somewhere around the $250-300 price range.

If they used the 9015 I'd buy one today.
