(Tuesday July 14th) The better blue dialed diver .,,
I came home last night to a power outage, and I didn't get my electricity back until 6 pm this evening. So I could not take my Citizen NY0040 wrist shot picture for yesterday, and
it's not my fault!!
So here is a picture of the watch and shirt I wore yesterday, that I had to take today. (Wait, what?) This is another Citizen diver that is vastly superior to the Seiko equivalent!
Instead of the dull, dark blue of the Seiko SKX009, we get the dazzling, star-burst textured blue dial of the Citizen NY0040-17LB.
And of course it also has the other advantages of the NY0040 family, the hand wind movement, the distinctive hands, the 8 o'clock crown, and the excellent 59-H1095 solid link bracelet with the superior clasp.

(Wednesday July 15th) The very rare yellow model .,,
Since I had no power this morning, I couldn't make coffee, make a hot breakfast nor take a hot shower.
"> I had no hot water, so I shaved in a tepid shower, and felt grubby as I dressed for work.
But I took advantage of the situation by deciding to wear a more casual shirt that goes really well with today's watch, the "impossible to find" yellow dialed Citizen NY0040-25YE.
In fact I would not have this watch if it wasn't for the generosity of Tommy Cheshire, who saw my many desperate "WTB" postings, as (with the encouragement of his lovely wife :haha
decided he would sell me his NY0040-25YE, as he didn't wear it very often.
Thank you Tommy, I am forever in your debt!
Okay, I have some salvaged gray hamburger meat that I am going to cook up for dinner now, and I will wear the last member of this NY0040 family tomorrow.
