First big watch purchase.

I've never bought a watch that cost more than $50, but decided I needed to make at least one multi-hundred dollar watch purchase as a rite of passage. I decided on a Citizen because I heard they were a good and reputable brand and were moderately priced. So I bought this Luke Skywalker edition for just over $300 cause I'm a HUGE Star Wars fan (I have a life-size Darth Vader statue in my home). I know themed watches can be a little tacky, especially to hardcore watch enthusiasts, but I feel like this is modest enough to get away with wearing and still retaining a bit of class. I really know nothing about watches or what's stylish, so I thought I would come here for some feedback on my first purchase.

Subdials are fun 🥳

Understated enough! Eco drive is robust so that’ll last for years no worries.

A good buy I’d say!

Love the nod to lightsabre colours on the pushers!!!!

The hands also glow a blue and green to tribute Luke's two lightsaber colors, which I think is pretty cool!

I'm seeing some Mace Windu purple there too, is that the seconds hand?? It's a cool watch, love a bit of SW myself and that's pretty understated compared to some of the film tie-ins I've seen!

I'm not sure, the purple might be a glare. Mine will arrive tomorrow, these are just pics from the Citizens website and pictures from customer reviews I found.

Nothing wrong with a bit of fun in a watch. I mean StudioUnderd0g just released a watch with a pizza on the dial!

Minute track on this watch is awesome and the lighsaber lume hands are a great touch.

Live long and prosper 🖖... I'm kidding obviously

That is cool, enjoy it👍
