Citizen Bullhead "Challenge Timer" from November 1972. This is a model that I absolutely wanted to have in my collection for its endearing look, its technical characteristics as well as for its reputation that continues to grow. So I went in search of my wild beast... After much research and in the middle of a jungle of tinkered parts or with horribly repainted dials I was finally able to find this model in excellent condition and totally original with a beautiful patina. It was mounted on its original steel bracelet but I then found a Nato that fits it perfectly! Concerning the operation, the push buttons are very smooth with this caliber 8110A equipped with a column wheel. In addition to the automatic winding, day and date functions, it has a chronograph with the "Fly back" function. It should be noted that apart from the chronograph, the Bullhead does not have a second hand. Its only small flaw is its crown nestled between the 2 pushers which is very small and which is wound with the fingernails... I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of manufacture and finish as well as its formidable precision even after more than 50 years of service. In conclusion, if you like chronos and are looking for a watch that has style, you will fall like me under the spell of this little bull full of vigor and character!
