I am not too fond with Citezin as a brand but for around 2,000 dollars why not get a Baume Mercier Hampton's Watch, I like their XL range.

I guess that was really my question...is 2 grand ridiculous to spend on a Citizen watch? I don't know anything about the movement...I just think they look nice.

basically the point of the campagnola line is to make high quality QUARTZ watches that resemble mechanicals and copy popular mechanical complications. If that's what you're in to, then they're nice.

That just ruined it for me. I really like the look of the Philosopher's Minute Repeater with the dark face, but $2k for a quartz? No, thanks.
