Who should buy which.
The Promaster Skyhawk A-T GMT Blue Dial (JY8125-54L): A frequent traveller or pilot-watch fan who wants world time and atomic accuracy on a bracelet. Choose the JY8078 Skyhawk if you want the same functions for less money, or a simpler watch if you do not use alarms or world time.
The Promaster Skyhawk A-T Blue Dial (JY8078-52L): A pilot-watch fan who wants a world-time, alarm and chronograph tool that never needs a battery. Choose a plain three-hand watch if you want something slim and quiet. Choose the Skyhawk JY8146 if you prefer the darker dial.
Before you order.
At 46 mm wide and 14 mm thick (per Watches of America) it is big and heavy. Citizen does not publish a lug width for this reference, so strap swaps need a measurement first.
It is large and heavy for what it is. Citizen lists a 45 mm case and Watches of America lists 14 mm thickness, so it will not slip under a fitted cuff. The ana-digi dial is also busy, and learning the crown and pushers takes a read of the manual.
