Just got this delivered! It's the first titanium watch I've ever owned, so that's taking some getting used to. I saw this watch and YouTube and had couldn't get it off my mind.

Welcome to the world of titanium watches I’ve got three of them including another Promaster I think they’re great.

I ended up getting a refund for it. The bezel action left alot to be desired, and I couldn't get a proper fit with no micro adjust. Also it just felt so flimsy compared to the Pelagos. I much prefer the black 42 Pelagos. The bezel action on it is incomparable. And the clasp has "glide-lock style" micro adjust. I can't remember what Tudor actually calls it. I know the price difference is substantial, but I would save up for the blue Pelagos. If you have a smaller wrist get the 39. The Citizen just felt so fragile, but it did look nice. Just depends on what you want out of a timepiece. I had to sell my Pelagos because I fell on some hard times financially, so I don't have either anymore.

Thank you so much for the detailed feedback! From how you mentioned it yes saving up for Pelagos sounds a lot more worth

Yes, it absolutely is. The Pelagos is a thing of beauty for sure, but aesthetics aside, you can feel the quality in all aspects of it's functionality as well. The Citizen has a Miyota movement, which is technically an in-house movement, but it simply can't compare to in-house Chronometer grade Tudor movement. I really only ever had set the watch on months with only 30 days. Other than that it kept near perfect time. I got the Tudor second-hand too, it was at least 4 years old and still running well within spec. There was an Omega Sea Master available as well, but The Tudor was so much better.
