Does anybody have this diver? What do you think of it? I was considering purchasing it. Would like to know your impressions.

I don't have this watch..but HOLY COW this looks TERRIFIC ! Citizen Orca Icon_cheers
Can you imagine what the watch must look like with those
lume markers ?..I'd say pretty COOL ! Also the markers mirror
that look with the bezel ! The hands are also really interesting
and the whole theme of the watch seems well done. It's
also an Eco-Drive and is titanium ! Extremely nice !!!

I think Aqua Homer (Mike) has one on rubber. Might PM him and ask.

. . . . I just saw one at the mall yesterday, for the first time. Really nice watch!!! Was on rubber, was larger than I even thought they are, and it was dominating the rest of the inventory .

. . . it might have even been abusing the others . . . . Shocked

Very cool watch with a unique style.

Our local COSTCO has the rubber strap version for $165, but I'm a bracelet guy. Seen them for about $240 online.

Bit large and too radical for my old man tastes (on a personal level).
But for someone else, very cool and modern. Plus the TI case is a big plus to me.
But be warned, some folks feel TI makes a watch feel cheap

I like it on Rubber and bracelet, looks good. The only drawback I see is the integrated bracelet/strap feature. You're pretty much held to those 2 options unless you customize something.

For real diving /snorkeling duties ...a winner in my book ...a diver you don't have to open from time to time to clean/regulated or battery replacement, diminished compromising W/R ratings...aside, a good looking piece Cool
