Citizen NY0040 Owner Review : Authentic, endearing and robust

I had become interested in this model after reading that it had been used by the divers of the Marina Militare in the 90s. As for the look, I really like the almond green on the indexes and hands, as well as the little touch of red on the dial. In addition, the mirror finish of the hands and the index rim give a very nice changing look. It is very comfortable thanks to its rounded case and the position of its crown at 8 o'clock. Its luminescence is generous and persistent enough to allow me to read the time on my nightstand until morning. As for the movement, mine (purchased in June 2022) has a stop-seconds and its drift is very good for an automatic watch of this price, around +6 seconds per day on average. Finally, the bezel, insert, flange and dial are very well aligned, as are the hour and minute hands when it is noon.
