... A 4/4
When I had sent #CitizenWatch #AP0430_51L <image> to Citizen USA for service (to have the gaskets & rechargeable battery changed), I was informed that it did not have parts anymore; it could send back the watch as is, or I could buy one at half price with some exceptions. So that was how I got #BN0198_56H (Archive: web.archive.org/web/2020111204 ).

A wristwatch with blue dial in brushed & polished stainless steel is on dark stone. Time is 10:11:26; date is 15.Dial is blue with concentric circles. Non-numerical hour markers with polished metal outline are in shape of icicle-sticks. The 12 o'clock marker is in more of a ice-cream sandwich shape. The rectangular date window at 3 o'clock has a polished metal outline. There is no partial 3 o'clock marker. Both hour & second hands have polished metal outline; second hand is silver with a small arrow near the tip. Hour hand has a merged triangle with a circle divided in 3 parts as the end. Minute hand is in shape of a straight sword; when squinted just so, with a tail past the center looks like a boat oar. Hour markers & hands look off-white due to luminescent paint. A metallic circle connects all the hour markers. A 60-minutes or -second track in the same shade of blue runs at the end of the dial. At 12 o'clock seems to have applied "CITIZEN" & "Eco-Drive" text on 2 lines. At 6 o'clock is applied stylized up-arrow as "Promaster" logo & "WR 200" on 2 lines. Stainless steel rotating bezel has minutes engraved at 10 minute interval in Arabic numerals, filled with black paint? In between are 7 circles engraved & black color filled, 4th one is larger. Bezel "60" minute is at 19 minutes. It has screw-down crown with crown guards on the right hand side. It seems to have non-standard lugs with a notch. The center link is "U"-shaped & polished; outside links are brushed.

0- Do have one "automatic" mechanical watch ... another story.

1- Next was #CitizenWatch #EcoDrive #AP0430_51L bought c 1999. After ~19 years, changed to one -- Citizen #BN0198_56H -- with larger hands & dial so that could tell the time easily sans glasses.
