    What do you think about Citizen's 35th anniversary Fujitsubo?

  • @johnsuzuki3572

    Both the case and bracelet are hardened through duratect platinum technology which uses actual platinum. It’s usually reserved for ‘the citizen’ collection as it adds cost. That why is more expensive than the regular line.

      Oh, that’s pretty cool. I don’t think they are marketing that on the product page, unless I missed it.

    citizen is learning bad habits from seiko, it's the exact same watch just with different colour but somehow it is LE and twice the price

    • @FranklyOnTime
      @FranklyOnTime  7 месяцев назад +1

      Agree. Way too much, at least when the same watch without the LE colors is almost half the cost. I am not into LE watches personally. I feel like I’d be afraid to wear them.

    Platinum coating, embossed hands, faceted bracelet, 9051 movement with magnetic resistance...

      The Fujitsubo is a classic watch. Hope we see more variations coming!

    Ill be looking at it in the secondary market

    • @FranklyOnTime
      @FranklyOnTime  7 месяцев назад

      That’s a good strategy, or wait for an eventual sale on the site.

    my mom got me the exact same thing as my 50th birthday present the 35 years anniversary limited edition with a blue colored ring and face but i change the band into a rubber i do not like the titanium straps that came with

      Nice! I have seen some complaints about the titanium band. Sure it is fine but I agreed with someone that the diver's extension is unnecessary. I have the rubber strap black Fujitsubo and love it.

    Just got this version. The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s amazing in person and on wrist

    Awesome color scheme (love the blue with the black bezel)!!! I’m sure it’ll come down in price in 6 months or so. It’s definitely overpriced.

    • @FranklyOnTime
      @FranklyOnTime  7 месяцев назад +1

      I agree. Citizen does sales a lot too, so I’d bet this one will see a sale at some point. I wonder if this release hints at even more versions of the Fujitsubo down the line 🤔

    What's the lug width on these watches? 20mm?

    I think 🤔🧐 swiss watches are over priced. Japanese watches are under priced

    • @FranklyOnTime
      @FranklyOnTime  4 месяца назад

      I tend to agree. I guess there is more heritage with Swiss watchmaking that goes into it. Citizen, Seiko, and Casio represent a lot of value for your money for me, although not just value.

    too expensive ? i hope this is a joke...

    • @FranklyOnTime
      @FranklyOnTime  24 дня назад

      I definitely think it’s good value if you like the Fujitsubo and dig the blue.
