| Thanks doc. Now I just have to decide quasi-Pepsi or classic black. Kind of like the numbers on the black, but don't have a Pepsi bezel. |

| Both watches are beautiful but I don't like Ti. Sorry Dan, I would buy SS myself. |

| Nice looking Diver. I even like the older style ProMaster which has a solid reputation. Good luck with whichever one you pick. |

| I like it! The only thing that I would change is to add a bushed SS or aluminum chapter ring...that would be totally hot!! I think that it is definitely a watch that you should buy! Very nice! ____________________________________ M A R K

| Get either one. 40 mm sports watches are the perfect size for normal people. And who cares if titanium scratches? It's a casual watch that is meant to be worn in casual settings-unless you are immobile then you will scratch your watch. I have a Japan only Promaster Tough series watch and it's only 38 mm and I swear it can kick any Invicta SAS ass from Boston to the keys!! |

| No probs, Don. I fear I'm developing a weird metal allergy since I have a rash on my left wrist where my watches ride. It's been weeks and still hasn't totally cleared up, so I'm interested in TI. I do have one TI watch - an Invicta I Farce given to me by Mrs. B - but it has a stainless steel case back (go figure). Of course, I could have a strange reaction to the fur of my new puppy, though I've never been allergic to any type of animal before. |

Unlikely to be a localized reaction to the dog, unless you only let it lick you on the wrist? If it is partially an allergic reaction has your physician suggested an antihistamine in addition to whatever topical they are prescribing? Its a thought. |

| Didn't see a doctor about this yet. Per the fur, I carry her in my left arm. Her hair is a bit prickly. But yeah, probably not the dog. |

| She looks like this - a red, not a white. However, this is not my photo or my pup. Shibas are very interesting breed. |

| BTW, after consulting with Mrs. B I have decided to go with the Black dial. Mrs. B is such a riot. At first she said to me: "Well, I'm not into Citizen watches." I said this is a Japan only model, full titanium. That caught her interest. After studying the photo, she announced: "I like it! If you think it's nice when it arrives, will you buy me the one with the red bezel? You know I want a titanium watch." Six months ago, she didn't even know watches were made in titanium. The disease is contagious. |

| Mr. TV it's about $345 including shipping. However, the price may come down a bit when they invoice me. Higuchi is very reliable. I bought a Seiko Sumo from the company a couple years back. |

| The Eco-Drive name alone is awesome..but this model really looks EXTRA good !!! The titanium kind of has the bead blasted look. Plus you know it's a Citizen which means quality. Add in the rare factor and you have a keeper there. NICE choice, going with the black dial..either one would most likely make you happy ! ____________________________________ | |
