The chosen was… neither?
My poll a while back got many votes as to what of those watches to purchase. Thank you to everyone who voted. In the end, it seems I have gone down a different road entirely. And so enter, this citizen eco drive. It’s actually my second citizen, and eco drive after my avion chronograph. This one is referred to as the “Corso”. While style wise, it does share some similarities dial wise to the avion (in both the full numbered hours, and 5 min marks). Beyond that however it is much dressier than anything I’ve picked up in the past. So far it’s much slimmer, and a smaller case all around. I’ve gone and put it on this Milanese strap. That could change in the future, but who knows at this point. The case it’s all polished. And it’s got a day/ date function (I think it’s referred to as a perpetual calendar, but correct me if I’m wrong). The mineral crystal has a nice doming to it that reminds me of that “vintage” style to some extent. Plus because of the way the dial is made for the solar unit. The numbers have this effect of kind of floating in a way.
Overall it’s a beautiful piece, and I think I’m going to be happy with in the long run. Cheers all 🍻
I have been a watch nerd for going on 5 years now. Favourite type of watch is a flieger. Particularly like the type b. Beyond that other pilots watches, and some field watches tend to be ones that I e...
Very nice! You can't go wrong with an Eco-Drive, very reliable.
Solid Citizen model, it won’t let you down.
Great choice! Both in brand and in model! You're going to love this watch for years and years.
Congrats and enjoy, bud!

Thanks for thinking of me but I don't buy anything with leather. Nice dial though. Very vintagy.
