thanks matt, it's a fun one for sure.
they start/stop the depth gauge complication (pressure sensor is in the middle).
Peter Chong's deployant review pretty much pushed me over the edge to take this one in trade, and explains the complication with a handy diagram of all six hands. :lol:

it's the 30th anniversary tribute to the original aqualand, which had a digital depth meter.

That was one of the first dive watches I listed over as a teenager. Remember seeing it on a stand mounted on a yellow aqualung

Pretty sure my buddy has one of those. One if his Citizens is a PITA to get new batteries into, I think he said they take multiples... not sure if it's that version.

That’s the one I had. Dad got it for me when I got my open water certification. Had it for about 20 years, sent it to citizen to have it serviced, and when they sent it back somebody stole the package off my doorstep. Remnants of the box were all over the sidewalk in front of my house.

Massive bummer.
