Just won this on the bay, Its needing some love "original, hands strap etc " and as its from the bay its gunna need an overhaul...
but the price was 1/3 of what I expected............... yahoo
It is an 8000 with the UHC case and the crown regulator. This was actually quite cheap - and much less expensive than the blue one I got a couple of years ago. The faceted crystal is scratched, as they always are, but I do like these interesting pieces.
I have this citizen titanium bullhead av0080-88e on the way, this bullhead has been released this year to celebrate 50 years since Citizen released their first titanium watch in 1970.
The case differs from the recent Tsuno bullheads and is a limited edition, there are two versions this silver one and a black faced version as well.
Do you have a photo of the engraving on the back, some one will be able to translate it and tell you what station or area it was originally issued at. they are a great and very accurate watch

This Citizen Calibre 2100 on it's way to the mainland, new battery, crystal, cleaned, serviced, pressure tested. The amp meter, (battery indicator), wouldn't budge, even with the new battery, and a reset. Dis-assembled the movement, as the coil, rotor and gears for the amp meter are buried in the movement. There was so much oil on those few gears that they were literally stuck face to face where they overlap. I would assume the watch left Citizen in that condition. Got it all cleaned up, and operating properly. In my opinion, this is the most overpriced, overrated, piece of s$$t that Citizen makes.
OK so I know I said thats it for this month but.......
1 the grey Alarm was a bargain and as I have the silver Dial and the Black dial already, just the blue to go
2 the Custom again was a bargain and I would almost call it quite rear
