Just for fun, I bought some FKM straps (blue and white) for my Oceanus T200 on AliExpress, even though they’re actually meant for the Moon Swatch. They fit the Oceanus like a glove (or like butt on bucket, as the german say is in my region), though you do need to use slightly curved spring bars.
Eleven years ago, my wife gave me this Citizen as a birthday present because I really liked it (in the first picture it’s brand new). Up until then, I’d been wearing small Seiko 5 watches and some awful Vostoks. I can’t remember the reference number; it was only available for a short while and was discontinued quite quickly. It was also my first solar-powered watch. It’s been through a lot over the years and still runs perfectly; only the crystal had to be replaced after eight years, and when I bought a Seiko Glossy SNZH53K1 as a temporary replacement, that’s when my passion for collecting really took off.
I hardly wear it anymore, but it’s a watch close to my heart, and the Citizen section of my collection has now grown to eight pieces.
The watch is a strap monster. I like the bracelet, but i hate the ridiculous proprietary cheap clasp, but fortunately there are other options …
Every time i change the strap, it’s like a new watch. :-)
I don’t wear this little gem nearly often enough. It’s a Casio A1000MA-7EF, with a stainless steel case and mineral glass, which I bought quite a while ago for around 80 euros. Incidentally, Zohran Mamdani, the mayor of New York, wears one too. :-)
Als ich in die Tiefgarage fuhr, wurde ich fast von meiner eigenen Uhr geblendet.
