What to know

Citizen’s latest ATTESA, the EVER SINCE BY1000-69L, draws its palette from a snow-covered forest at daybreak. Layered blue tones, mountain-like patterns and tiny sparkling details give the dial a wintery character, while the bright silver-coloured Super Titanium case and bracelet provide a lighter visual counterpoint. The watch belongs to a worldwide edition of 2,400 pieces.

Inside is Citizen’s light-powered H874 Eco-Drive, a radio-controlled quartz calibre with Luna Program. Instead of requiring manual moon-phase corrections, the watch calculates its lunar display from perpetual-calendar information. Direct Flight also lets the wearer select time zones using the crown. Its sapphire-covered case measures 41.5 mm across and 10.8 mm thick, with water resistance rated to 10 bar.

Citizen announced the edition on October 13 and lists a November 5, 2026 launch in Japan. The global announcement gives a projected US$1,200 price; the Japanese listing specifies ¥170,500 including local tax. Both pricing and availability can vary by market.
