    My first one didn't run at all. The replacement runs 3 seconds fast per HOUR! The rotor is extremely loud and the bezel is pretty slippery. Wouldn't buy it again. I'm really disappointed to be honest.

    I wonder if the smaller crown is meant to prevent digging into the wrist, things like that can really ruin a watch.

    I had it, liked it, but returned it. I did not like the shiny bezel insert. I have the NY0040, and I prefer the flat crystal, the matte bezel with the full minute track. The NY012x series is similar and cheaper, it has a proper larger crown and better bezel insert. But the smaller dimensions of the Fujitsubo are better.
    The titanium looks and feels nice.

    • @erikkinginnyc

      @@erikkinginnyc thank you. I find both retro somehow. Citizen addressed the Fujitsubo issues with the newer lower cost NY012x, with an opaque bezel insert, larger crown and less reflective crystal (but that could be mineral crystals are less reflective than sapphire ones). You can always get Citizen replace the bezel insert at some point. I wish for a watch at this price they would have used a ceramic bezel insert

Although this has a saphire crystal and the 4Hz rate which you just cant beat at that price
