Citizen Watches, not Citizen Company Store, is having a Post Holiday Sale, where a few pieces are priced the same at both sites.
So if anyone was hesitant to sign up for CCS, this is a good opportunity to get a good discount.
Or if you prefer, same pricing for the three examples at Amazon

Link to everything at the Citizen Post Holiday Sale - https://www.citizenwatch.com/us/en/collection/sale/

Here are a few examples:

Citizen x Star Wars R2-D2 Limited Edition, model # FE7050-50W
Sale price is $175
List price is $350

https://www.citizenwatch.com/us/en/prod ... ?cgid=sale

Citizen x Star Wars Boba Fett Limited Edition, model # AW1597-05W
Sale price is $187.50

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

Mitota 9015, incredibly thin and easy to wear, with a really nice bracelet. Its been out of production for a couple years now, might be the last chance to grab a new one (the site says its the last new thunderbolt in existence!).

It baffles me why Dagaz aren't flooding the market with these and stopped production instead.
My guess is a few things contributed.. its 39mm but super slim and wears small. Too small for many people.

Also, the $500 retail price may have been a hard sell. The case and bracelet finishing is super nice, contributing to the price, but for a budget pilot/field watch maybe not that many people care about having that nice finishing. And theres no option for a strap version, so you'll always be paying for the bracelet as well.

I remember the watch being well loved and popular a few years back, but for all the love it seemed like not *that* many people actually bought them at retail. $299 is definitely a better price.

I'm seriously tempted by Boba Fett every time it goes on sale. But it goes on sale so often I feel like it can wait til "next time".

I dont really see R2D2 on sale though, so that seems like a great buy.

And my opinion on the Nighthawk is well known :lol:

Am I the only one who remembers when they were closing the Thunderbolt out for $187.50? Nice watch but I took a pass (regret it now)!

Jake must make nice watches, but I have yet to bite on one. Maybe on one of his snowflake models...
Just my $0.02 USD as always.

23 hours into the new year--and I haven't bought a watch.

What willpower!

Also Jared has up to 20% of a 2k purchase. Some things are excluded like longines. However if you were to buy something like a hamilton as well the discount comes off the whole order. This seems like a good double dip....this longines is half off already and the hamilton is just out. I just did such a scenario and had it shipped to store in delaware about 20 minutes from me which saved me all the tax as well.

The fact that the last manufacturer-sanctioned new condition thunderbolt in existence hasn't been snatched up yet is personally offensive to me.

Add this $625 Longines to your cart along with a $100 G-Shock and get the G-Shock for free.

Unless I am missing something, it looks like Starbuy does not ship these outside of Australia and New Zealand.
