Citizen Eco-Drive Super Titanium CA0021-53E

[vcash]

For the last few months I have wanted to pick up a Citizen Eco-Drive to add to my small collection. I have had a very hard time deciding between the Navihawk and the BL5250-53L. But now there is a new contender in the ring and I have decided that this is the Eco-Drive that I want:

Citizen Eco-Drive Chronograph Super Titanium CA0021-53E



It reminds me of a combo between a Tag Carerra (The dial) and a Railmaster (The case) and this would be perfect as a daily wearer.

The only problem is that I cannot find this model anywhere! I have looked at online stores / ebay / Local Citizen World's but no luck at all. From what I can see, this model is featured on Citizen's China, Hong Kong and Japan Websites.

Can anyone provide further details on this model with leads on where to buy this (Prefer online with shipping to India?)

Cheers,
V

Thanks - I did check these guys out but they are based in Malaysia and also they have this model out of stock. Would rather purchase from a more credible source. Any known HK based dealers you could recommend?

Is the reason for availability limited because this is a new model or because this is very region specific.

Got it! Managed to buy one in India a few weeks ago from an AD. He told me that this was one of 7 pieces in the country. Also managed to get a good discount. Love the Titanium - It is so light!!!

Wow, it looks reall good.
Take more pics man, i wish more people showed interest in watches like these instead of the blind passion for Orange Monsters that most have.
This is the model with the new type of finish right?

COngrats!

Thanks! Yea, I was going to get the BL5250, but then this caught my eye and I couldn't pass up on it! An this is the new finish - Super Titanium Bracelet & Case. The main dial inside has a sharp finish and the sub dials have an interesting matt finish. Will take more pictures soon!

Beautiful watch. I have two Citizen Eco Drive Titaniums that I love!

This is a very nice watch. I'm seriously considering purchasing one of these as an everyday "go to" watch.

Could you guys tell me what color the lume is on this model? As I really love the blue lume on Citizen watches.

Thanks for your help!

Fantastic looking watch mate. Great buy. I'd love an Eco-Drive to add to my small but growing collection, too. I don't have anything Titanium yet so you've certainly got me thinking!
