Hi guys. New here. I recently bought a Citizen dive watch and need a bit more info. Some google searches show potentially 1991-95 and others around 1985.
What model is it and where could I get spares for it? ie. Crystal, chapter ring and bezel inlay.
I appreciate any help.

71-1845 is the model #
I would put the diver a bit later than mid 90's, pretty sure not mid 80's. I'd even risk the year 2000 as per serial#
Finding parts for Citizens short of buying donor watches is a bit tough.
Good luck in your search. Try searching ebay for Citizen Divers and see if you can find a match.

If I want to change the chapter ring, what size or model Seiko would work? SKX?

 

[scubarob99]

Chapter rings are pretty specific size wise- diameter and height, you might not have much luck fitting a Seiko to a Citizen

Model number is NY2300. Citizen spares are tough to come by - ebay is your best bet. Everything on that watch looks to be in pretty good shape, though.

You could make a sterile chapter ring.

I had a similar watch and even a master watchmaker who won the watch from me in a raffle cannot find parts for it, sad really :-(

Check with Cas-Ker for the crystal replacement. They should have what you need.
