Citizen Aqualand JP 2000

A Brazilian Federal Police officer photographed on shift at the airport, badge and credentials hanging on the jacket, a Citizen Promaster Aqualand on the wrist. The Aqualand is built around the round module on the side of the case, an electronic sensor that measures water pressure and drives a depth readout on the dial. It is a 44mm steel quartz diver, water resistant to 200 meters and certified to the ISO diving standard, with an alarm that sounds if the wearer ascends too quickly. He has appeared here before on a different diver, which makes this a rotation rather than one watch. Nothing about airport duty calls for a depth gauge, and he wears one anyway.

Intel Report

Citizen Promaster Aqualand JP2000 The Aqualand is Citizen's depth-sensor diver, a line built for decades around one unusual feature: the round module on the flank of the case is an electronic pressure sensor, and it feeds a digital depth display on the dial. The JP2000 pairs that with analog hands in a 44mm stainless steel case, a quartz movement, 200 meters of water resistance, and ISO 6425 diver certification. It records the maximum depth of the last dive, keeps a dive log, runs a chronograph, and sounds an alarm if the wearer surfaces too fast. It is one of the few watches where the digital display is not a convenience bolted on, it is the entire reason the watch exists. Policia Federal, Brazil The submitter is a Federal Police officer in Brazil, photographed on shift at the airport with his badge and credentials hanging from the jacket beside the wrist. The Policia Federal is the country's federal law enforcement agency, and its work at an international airport runs to immigration, customs, and the federal offences that move through a border crossing. This is his second appearance here, each time with a different dive watch, and he offered no reason for either beyond wearing them. An airport concourse is a long way from open water, which is precisely what makes the choice worth noticing.
