Citizen Released an Affordable Dive Watch With a Dial Unlike Anything Else
Citizen has announced US availability of the Promaster Dive BN0167-09W, a 44mm limited-edition dive watch that first launched in Canada and China last week. It arrives at $495, the same price point as the recently released EO2023-00W, but this one is a noticeably different animal in terms of size and overall presence.
This Dual Time Dress Watch Runs Two Quartz Movements Side by Side
A fully polished rounded-square case with two quartz movements and no seconds hands is not exactly the kind of watch I typically find myself gravitating toward.

I still enjoy that side of collecting, but it doesnโt really challenge how I think about watches anymore.

It’s no secret. I’m a Doxa fan and have been for a while now. My Sub 300 limited edition still gets regular wrist time and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. So when Doxa announces something new in the Sub lineup, I’m paying attention. The brand has introduced the Sub 200 II, a refinement of its most accessible dive watch that brings new dial treatments, a slimmer profile, and updated strap options. Whether or not this particular version connects with me personally is a different story, but I think there’s a lot to unpack here.
Timex’s New Affordable Dress Watch Borrows Its Best Ideas from the Cartier Tank
Between a string of solid archive-inspired releases and some super compelling takes on popular luxury silhouettes, Timex keeps finding ways to stay relevant in conversations that most people wouldn’t expect to include a Timex. The latest example is the 1976 Lexington Reissue, a rectangular dress watch that pulls from the brand’s mid-’70s catalog and lands at $149. If the shape looks familiar, that’s because it should.
