This feature on Citizen US website is a MAJOR upgrade to watch shopping online

So I was browsing Citizen website to see their new promaster model. In the gallery there is a "try it on" feature that use the camera to AR place the watch on the wrist. This is not perfect yet, but it really helped to have an idea of the dimensions.

I hope brands, especially the ones with selective or online only distribution, will follow this path soon. How many watches I didn't buy thinking it will be too big for my wrist, this could hacr change the game... And my bank account !

Do you think it's a good think to make online shopping more convenient ?

Convenient but doesn’t replace the tactile experience of wearing it and trying it on

Sure, I was thinking of microbrand or geographically limited brands or model, it is a good way to make an idea already

For micros, this would be a great idea. A better idea would be for everyone to post dial, lug-to-lug, and thickness

Definitely. It's disappointing that so many brands leave out LtL. For me, that's the most important measurement.
