New Citizen Calibre Minute Repeaters

There can be no doubt that the Calibre collections that Citizen began to roll out a couple of years ago have made a big splash, and the latest, the Citizen Calibre 9000 watch collection is an amazing piece of quartz technology wrapped in an easy-on-the-eyes design. (model BL9002-02A pictured below)

It's a minute repeater - push a button and the watch chimes the hour and minutes - as well as a perpetual calendar - never adjust the date for months with less than 31 days of leap years. Add to all of this two daily alarms and a second time zone and if this watch were mechanical instead of quartz, you could expect to pay $200,000 dollars or more!

Of course the watch is quartz (battery powered) and not mechanical, so the price falls considerably below $200,000. Actually the collection retails for between $485 and $595 before our discount.

The Citizen Calibre 9000 watches are available in a wide variety of colors options with either a link bracelet or a leather strap that wraps luxuriously around the the case.
