As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Citizen NB1060-12l

It was only released on 16 June. I've struggled to find details outside of Japanese sites, so may be a Japan-only model?

It's on the Japanese Citizen site (https://citizen.jp/shop/collection/g/gNB1060-12L/) but not the US site last time I checked.

I bought mine from Sakura watches, which I haven't used before but seems to have decent reviews.

List price is JPY 126,500 (USD 940), Sakura had it for JPY 87,285 (USD 650) plus shipping (https://www.sakurawatches.com/citizen-c ... nb1060-12l)

38mm and the dial is "silver leaf", whatever that is.

Edit to add: more real pics here: https://www.japan-onlinestore.com/NB1060-12L

I couldn't resist. I swapped the bracelet from my Khaki Field 42mm over to the Officers Mechanical and it felt like a new watch. Just ordered a brand new bracelet for it.
Photo’s please.
I love bracelets and struggle not having one on a watch. So when I buy the odd watch without a bracelet, first thing I try and find is a bracelet.
I think the only exception to date is the seiko street tuna I picked up a few months ago - don’t seem to want a bracelet for it, nor my glycine combat sub - it came with a bracelet but I prefer a FKM strap.
Trying to find one for my glycine vintage 41mm with 20mm lugs. Prefer solid end links of course.

I have a new factory bracelet coming for my Khaki Field 42mm. Should be here this week, so I moved the used one to my Officers Mechanical. I love this watch even more than I did on leather.

Love this watch, and once the bracelet is brushed rather than polished it will look so much better (for me anyway).
It does make it somewhat a bit of a heavy watch though - the making of a solid bracelet I guess.

Channeling my inner @cortman.
Listing says it doesn't work, but movement doesn't look too bad.
With the price I paid, seems worth a gamble.
