In 2000, Citizen did a National Park theme in the Promaster Tough EcoDrive series. This is the Yellowstone version. The watch has a screw down crown. As it comes from the Tough series, it has increased antimagnetic protection at 16000 g, thick sapphire crystal and extra shockproofing. A solid well made watch excellent as a beater for outdoors. Citizen ti is also usually rather scratch resistant. In Japan, these watches does not seem very rare and often sell quite cheaply.

One piece titanium case and a nice caseback print.

Kevlar strap with metal keeper.

The other watch I found in this series was the Aoraki Mount Cook version, named after a National Park on the South Island of New Zealand. Pics and additional text from this bolg post (in Japanese).

Re: Buffalo Watch

Martin...I love those! Great looking outdoor watch.. I am a big fan of the simple face with large numbers- it reminds me a bit of my Casio Overland.

Those look great. I've seen the Yellowstone one before, but I didn't know it was part of a larger series. Cool, they even used different hands on each model.
