Citizen Promaster Eco-Drive 41mm (NY0120-52E)

A state police agent with the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, on exterior surveillance of a bar. TABC holds statewide police jurisdiction, and its agents run inspections, investigations and covert operations into bars, restaurants, gas stations and sexually oriented businesses across Texas, building the drug, prostitution, human trafficking and gambling cases that local agencies count on to uncover organized crime in their problem bars. His region covers 50 north Texas counties and roughly 8 million people. On the wrist, a Citizen Promaster Eco-Drive, the NY0120-52E, which he says is great for surveillance, covert operations and typical patrol tactics. "It's not a luxury watch, it's not a typical Seiko. It's a legitimate ISO approved tank, and whether Citizen gets a bad wrap or not, it does the basic job I need, tells time." What is the longest you have sat on one spot?

Intel Report

Citizen Promaster NY0120 The NY0120 is Citizen's mechanical Promaster diver, a 41mm stainless steel case, 13.6mm thick, with a screw down crown, a unidirectional bezel and a day date window. The dial says Diver's 200m, the designation that marks a certified dive watch built to survive real use, which is exactly the standard the man in the driver's seat cited. Inside is Citizen's caliber 8204, an automatic running 21 jewels at 21,600 vibrations per hour with around 42 hours of reserve. Nothing exotic, nothing fragile, a workhorse movement in a watch that has earned a following among people who want a mechanical diver without paying for a name. Dive watches get romanticized at depth, but most of their working lives look like this, a dark parking lot, a long sit, a door that needs watching. Two hundred meters of overbuilt case, doing the basic job. Telling time.
