The Citizen Calibre 3100 Collection

The dial on the watch is an inky matte black that really shows off the detail of the script, the Arabic markers, and the very cool retrograde GMT complication. Since the dial is not glossy, it gives the watch an excellent depth behind the sapphire crystal. The case is made from titanium and is very light, but not light enough to feel cheap. I suspect that the sapphire crystal and the thicker quartz movement account for the added weight. Titanium is an intriguing finish, and this watch seemed especially scratch resistant, unlike some other titanium watches I have owned.All of the dial markers are luminous, but they did not pass the "movie test". I saw the finale in the Bourne series, and found myself turning the watch toward the screen in order to read it. The luminosity is intense at first, but dies quickly — something I didn't expect from a company so dedicated to SCUBA diving. The second hand on the watch has been coated in a pinkish luminous paint, and at night looks very cool. At 45mm, it is larger than anything I normally wear. The Aeromax wears very large because there is no bezel; the dial is literally the entire watch which is a good thing as it creates a *** and classy feel. Indeed, the appeal of this watch is in the details: all of the Arabic hour markers have a beautiful metal border much like Breitling uses on some models.The watch has two additional complications. The first is a 24 hour indicator which sits in a sub-dial at the 9 o'clock position. Pretty *** and straightforward, but still nice to have as it compliments the second complication: a GMT retrograde indicator to keep track of a second time zone.
