Ha ha!!! Well it's a Ltd Edition Citizen Promasyer Tsuno Bullhead, No 2/1973, bought as I said as a thank you from my gorgeous wife, I originally wanted the black and gold version which is on offer as I said a couple of days ago, however we went into H.Samuels today, saw this version in black and green and both of us preferred it to the black/gold combination, they kindly took £95 off so my wife paid £600.
Couple more quick pics.

Great looking watch. Love it

You can use BLUE15 with HSamuel to get the price down to £590 on the green version.

You’re welcome …

Oh god, I've created monsters!!!

A couple more better pics to whet people's appetites....

The Over £200 Watch Party is calling on the founder of the Under £200 Watch Thread to either resign or be sacked after CCTV pictures emerged of him in a passionate embrace with a £600 watch.

The bullhead design looks great, surprised we haven’t seen something on AliExpress yet…

In the meantime, can we limit him to a single exclamation mark at a time please. I'll forgive the budget-busting if we can sort that.

That really is fantastic. A lovely watch - well done to you and your generous other half! Any more information on the history of the Bullhead would be gratefully received

Surprisingly fantastic quality. The chrono works very well and it’s super heavy / robust.

It had heads turning in the shopping center this morning and a few nice comments.

Wouldn’t wear it near anyone who might ask me to see it up close though







Any guesses on price?

70 HK$?

Is there not any inflation these days. The under £200 watch thread should be at least £220 by now. (The Orient Triton I'm looking at is £215-£230.

Or can I count the pre VAT price as under £200 without getting thrown of the forum?

Worry not, we've relaxed the rules a little on price( says the man who posted a £695 watch!!), post away old chap!!!

[Barchettaman]

We’re a relaxed bunch around here.

Anything over budget but for sale at ridiculous discounts also gets a pass.

If anything it makes things more interesting, otherwise it’d be a shallow sea of NH35 powered AliExpress specials (or maybe that’s just my watch box, who knows)

[joshcowin]

Whats the fake RM like to actually wear, the chunkier models always look like they would actually be annoying on the wrist.

The slimmer models are amazing imo

My guess on price is £100

[Drooles]

Does anyone know whether a Sugess chronograph with a hand wound Seagull movement would be a sound choice?

Don’t have the resources at the moment for a Citizen Bullhead but I really feel the need for an interesting chronograph
