    Like this. Proppa man watch. Does need atomin timing though, to compete with the Casios.

    I have an older Promaster Land (CB5920-86E, caliber E660). On that movement you have to pull out the crown one click to switch functions, which is not the easiest thing to do when the watch is on your wrist. Taking the watch off when you want to use the chronograph is also not very convenient. So, replacing the crown with a push button disguised as a crown is probably an ergonomic improvement.
    One of the biggest issues I have with this watch is that the broad hands will cover up parts of the MIP display at certain times, and there is no way to move the hands out of the way like you find on a "CasiOak" watch (GA2100, GAB2100 etc.), at least I could not find it in the manual. When you change settings the hands do move out of the way.

    I love how this Citizen looks tough and nerdy all at once.

    Excellent review as always. Love the watch and would have bought it if it had atomic sync.

    Thanks for showing. I bought the green one of these and would agree it wears smaller than dimensions would suggest. The lume and the new display are also excellent.
    Have a lovely xmas.

    I think these are cool, but they're too heavy for me.
    I'm really keen on Citizen these days, and I own an example from their Promaster Land series: AT6080-53L (JDM). I've been so impressed with that watch, and PMD56-* are also nearly the same (just not supporting quite the same wrist length). These JDM watches are radio-controlled, but only receive signals from the stations in Japan. I'm not in Japan, but the radio-controlled feature still means the watch has a perpetual calendar, and it also means you can easily set the watch initially: set your phone to London time, then use a JJY emulator app on your smartphone to set the watch, and put your phone's timezone setting back to normal. Then, adjust the watch for your current timezone (this will _always_ be _easy_ because the watch's "base time" is set to GMT). These are very much tool watches, absolutely packed with features. More than they might appear to be, you could say. The smartphone app is not needed after initial setting, but it sure makes initial setting easier.

      I made an upload showing this process using the JJY mast!

      ​@@CasualWatchReviews Yes, it's quite a bit easier than manual setup. Every night my watch searches for signals from Japan that are not going to reach it, but it's okay. The radio control for my JDM watch still meant: 1) perpetual calendar, 2) easy set-up.

    I wish they would sell the non-PVD JV1007-07E on a bracelet! Seriously considering that one. The camo everywhere on this LE is too busy for my taste.

    It looks nice but why didn't they copy features from the Casio protreks like the smart crown? Progress at half the price and made of titanium have better features IMO. Like the pew-50 and 60 titaniums. Or for around the same price you can get the prw-70or a little more the mansulu.
