I would normally recommend going to my Amazon channel but the only seller that has it, Premium Japan, are absolute crooks and I suggest you STAY AWAY from them at all costs. Check out eBay. You will pay anywhere from $250 - $400 for one.

    I was enamoured by the original blue and black ones, and only recently bought myself one, being the green face and bezel. I love these watches, and have to agree that this version is a handsome, and different colored dial than most divers. not to mention, the solar quartz movement makes it so it essentially never dies. Thanks for the video!

    Citizen has really been on a roll lately releasing lots of fun and colourful variations of its dive watches. I just wish they’d start making some smaller watches in the 40mm range. The 37mm ladies variant is a bit too small. Most of their other Promaster divers are 44-45mm or larger. Thankfully the BN0150 series wears pretty good still despite its 44mm case.

    often, mineral crystals are better for diver watches, as sapphire is more susceptible to shattering when under high pressure, so when diving, it is better to have a mineral crystal, as a crystal failure on sapphire will result in a ruined watch.

    Most JDM watches are firstly made in Japan and will say so in tiny print under the six o'clock index. Secondly they are only sold on their respective company's Japanese website. Turns out this is NOT a JDM Citizen watch.. It just came out on Citizen's Japanese website first and then I guess Citizen decided to sell this outside of Japan as well.
