Eco-Drive movement

The Citizen JY8078-52L Promaster Sky Blue Angels is a tour de force when it comes to technology. As you've come to expect from Citizen, this model also has an Eco-Drive movement that manages to extract power even from candlelight. So you will never have to replace the battery.

Radio controlled Citizen watch

Because this men's watch is controlled by the signal of the atomic clock, it is so accurate that the time is always correct. The same goes for the date, by the way, as this model has a perpetual calendar. Besides a calendar, this watch is also equipped with alarm, dual time, countdown and digital backlight so that you will be able to read the dial even in the dark.

Sapphire glass and 2 alarms

Of course, the JY8078-52L has sapphire crystal and it is water resistant to 200 metres. This Citizen watch has 2 alarms and can be put away in the dark for 3.5 years. This model is an absolute high-flyer!

{"original":"Wat een fantastisch horloge! Ik was een beetje huiverig om zo veel geld uit te geven voor een horloge maar ik heb er geen spijt van. Het is op en top kwaliteit en dit is echt een horloge dat door piloten gedragen wordt. Hij is wat zwaar maar dat merk je niet echt met dragen. Het bandje is ook top kwaliteit. (Let op met het inkorten, er zitten speciale pennetjes in die uit meerdere delen bestaan.) Ik moest hem wel eerst een tijdje onder een video lamp leggen om hem goed op te laden maar hij houd zijn lading prima vast. Het is een topper waar ik nog jaren plezier van hoop te hebben.","de":"Was f\u00fcr eine fantastische Uhr! Ich war ein bisschen z\u00f6gerlich, so viel Geld f\u00fcr eine Uhr auszugeben, aber ich habe es nicht bereut. Es ist Top-Qualit\u00e4t und dies ist wirklich eine Uhr von Piloten getragen. Sie ist ein bisschen schwer, aber das merkt man beim Tragen nicht wirklich. Das Armband ist ebenfalls von bester Qualit\u00e4t. (Seien Sie vorsichtig beim K\u00fcrzen, es hat spezielle Stifte, die aus mehreren Teilen bestehen). Ich musste es zuerst eine Weile unter eine Videolampe legen, um es richtig aufzuladen, aber es h\u00e4lt seine Ladung sehr gut. Es ist ein Topper, an dem ich hoffentlich noch viele Jahre Freude haben werde.","en":"What a fantastic watch! I was a bit hesitant to spend so much money on a watch but I have no regrets. It is top quality and this is really a watch worn by pilots. It is a bit heavy but you don't really notice that while wearing it. The strap is also top quality. (Be careful when shortening it, it has special pins that consist of several parts). I did have to put it under a video lamp for a while first to charge it properly but it holds its charge just fine. It is a topper that I hope to enjoy for years to come."}
