Citizen has announced the new Attesa H800 Full Sapphire Bezel watch. Also known as model AT8314-53L, this is a limited edition watch with a 42 mm Super Titanium casing with a gray diamond like carbon (DLC) coating. This is said to be a scratch resistant and corrosion resistant layer.

The Attesa H800 Full Sapphire Bezel has a blue-green color scheme across the dial and bezel. The dial is protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, which extends over the watch’s world time bezel. The watch also features luminous hands and indices, and is accompanied by a triple-link titanium bracelet. This three-register chronograph features sub-dials at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions, offering a range of functions. The watch supports 26 time zones, has a perpetual calendar and day and date indicators. Plus, it has a 1/20th second chronograph, allowing you to time for up to 60 minutes. 

Citizen’s new Attesa watch is powered by an H800 movement, with Eco-Drive technology allowing it to be powered by light; there is a power reserve indicator on the watch face. On top of this, it is water resistant up to 100 meters (10 bar/333 ft), making it suitable for swimming or snorkelling, and it can also be worn in the shower. 

The Citizen Attesa H800 Full Sapphire Bezel watch (AT8314-53L) will be released in various countries worldwide on October 9th. In the US, it will retail for $1,350. It is worth noting that there will only be 1,800 units available worldwide; these are unnumbered, and the allocation per country has yet to be announced.
