Three new Citizen open heart mechanical watches on the way

Three new Citizen Collection mechanical watches have been unveiled in Japan. The PR1050-50W, the PR1052-54A and the PR1054-59A have an unusual design, which is said to have been inspired by a flower.

The Citizen Collection PR105 watches have a round dial, each featuring a pattern mimicking a blooming flower. The stainless steel case is also circular, with a slim steel bracelet for an elegant look, and three analog hands. Other design elements include a bud-shaped crown and an ‘open heart’ allowing you to view the movement through the watch face.

The PR1050-50W has a pink dial, a rose gold colored crown, and a silver tone casing and strap. The PR1052-54A is all gold, and the PR1054-59A has a rose gold face, bezel and crown, and a silver case and strap. These Citizen collection timepieces use a 6628 caliber, supporting automatic and manual winding. They should remain accurate to within -20 to +40 seconds daily, and have a power reserve of around 40 hours. The watches also offer sapphire glass, 5 ATM water resistance and type 1 magnetic resistance.

At the Citizen online store in Japan, the PR1050-50W, PR1052-54A and PR1054-59A watches retail for ¥60,500 (~$379), ¥66,000 (~$413) and ¥62,700 (~$393), respectively. They are each scheduled for release on June 18th in this market. Whether or when these products could be released in the US is unclear.
