Citizen BJ7075-02E GMT Eco-Drive
With the approach of autumn’s new home Citizen Watches are set to be tasty and interesting, almost to want to forget a summer little warm and very unusual as the one just passed.
To ignite the enthusiasm here this time look at the new Citizen BJ7075-02E GMT Eco-Drive, a beautiful watch from the aviation look distinctly characterized by ease of reading and a number of peculiarities making it truly a companion unsurpassed in the daily life of a professional driver.
There are two versions in which it declined this model: a slightly more classic with black PVD case and strap technical Kevlar and a fully polished and brushed steel bracelet with very elegant. The black dial is absolutely identical in both versions and has an incredible amount of information, starting with the flange which is home to one of the two logarithmic scales of the slide rule.
Designed specifically for the calculation of distances, time and fuel consumption, this valuable mathematical tool perhaps can return useful aviator only a little distracted that will have forgotten to bring a modern calculator during their trips, but it is also true that with the slide rule can perform many other operations, and its presence will be appreciated even in situations not necessarily related to flight operations.
The indices are widely applied oversized, and their luminescent material coating ensures perfect readability in diving (the tightness of the chest is 20 atm) at considerable depths, though – let us remember – is a watch designed to go to air for water.
On the dial, we find even the scale of 24h, washed by hand dedicated pleasant, very discreet, with red triangular tips and perfectly distinct from the other white and red of hours and minutes (flush) seconds; this pointer is independently adjustable on a different time, so as to allow the display of a second time.
The date window positioned at 3 o’clock is very small and is likely to be confused with one of the indexes, but probably on a route to the tropical seas or some other exotic destination like to know the current day is the last concern for the lucky owner of this clock.
Two crowns adjustment, both screw, one for the classic functions of hours, minutes, date and second time zone and the other for the flange of the slide rule. To animate this beautiful clock, we find an Eco-Drive movement with power reserve of up to 6 months and the function of indicating the near exhaustion, useful to point out to those who had to leave for a long time in a dark drawer her partner timepiece.
