Citizen Aqualand Review: Depth Meter JP2007-17W

Our full video review of the Citizen Aqualand Depth Meter JP2007-17W.

The Aqualand has tons of heritage, Citizen released the first version of it in the mid-80s. It elicits images of crusty old dive masters sitting in huts on the beach somewhere in the Caribbean. At the very least, wearing an Aqualand will likely inspire that “real-world watch encounter.” Someone will likely approach you to ask what you’ve got on your wrist.

The Aqualand is nothing but quirk, it screams uniqueness, and will start conversations with watch folks and civilians alike. If you’re looking for competitive options I’d point you at any Ani-Digi G-Shock that’s available. You could easily get the same level of functionality (save the dive computer) for less money but that watch, in my opinion, would be much less interesting.
