I have 6,150 reasons to prefer the Citizen, but I agree that the cyclops takes away from the look of the Citizen's dial. A perfect homage watch to the OP would be to have the double "II" on 12, 3, 6, and 9 and no text at all on the face, and everything else looking the same. I like the dial of the OP way better than the Datejust or the Day-Date...it distills the esthetic of Rolex right down to the bare bones.
The Citizen would actually last very long. It can go on with less frequent servicing than the Rolex. The catch being servicing we will be a third to half the cost of the watch, so.... Does one just a new watch or service the old one is a question.
Which watch do you like best? And which watch is better value? Let me know in the comments below!!

Yes, the Rolex OP is the last real Rolex tool watch without the bling. In my opinion it is classic Rolex.
When people are saying #MaMaCoo is a better option for buying a watch,I very much agree!

Fair point. Personally I would buy a new watch over servicing.
