Citizen Collection Mechanical NB1060-12L Blue Silver Leaf Lacquer 38.2mm Leather Strap Men's Watch

The Citizen NB1060-12L is a breathtaking masterpiece of Japanese artisanal craftsmanship, belonging to the brand's prestigious Citizen Collection. Famously known among enthusiasts by its "Silver Leaf Lacquer" nickname, this JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) exclusive model is celebrated for a dial that rivals watches at much higher price points. It features a perfectly refined 38.2mm Stainless Steel Case treated with Citizen's proprietary Duratect Platinum hardening technology, ensuring a brilliant, scratch-resistant finish that maintains its luxury luster over time.The undisputed centerpiece of this timepiece is its handcrafted Blue Silver Leaf Lacquer Dial. This intricate process involves hand-applying silver foil followed by a thin layer of pigment and lacquer, resulting in a unique, organic texture that mimics the depth of a deep-sea current or a stormy sky. The dial is protected by a Dual-Curved Sapphire Crystal with an anti-reflective coating, which provides exceptional clarity and highlights the faceted silver-tone indices and dauphine hands.At its core, the watch is powered by the high-grade, in-house Citizen Caliber 9011 Automatic Movement. This 24-jewel mechanical engine beats at a high frequency of 28,800 vph, offering a 42-hour power reserve and superior accuracy compared to standard entry-level movements. The movement's refined finishing and skeletonized rotor are fully visible through the Exhibition Case Back. Secured by a premium, matching Blue Leather strap with a secure folding clasp and offering 100-meter water resistance, the NB1060-12L is a sophisticated and culturally rich horological achievement.
