Citizen 150m: Collector Discussion and Thoughts

Mitka · Aug 23, 2026

Hi everyone.

I’m currently working on a collectors guide for Citizen 150meter rated watches from 1964-1980. Photos of your example would be greatly appreciated!

Best regards,

Mitka

Just mundane Challenge Divers, but I'm happy to post better photos if at all helpful, Mitka.

The only pic I have of one I recently serviced. All original as far as I know, hands were re-lumed by me.

Model No. 52-0110. Serial No. 80810167 (August 1978). Caliber. 8210A.

OK, front, back, and crown.

As you probably know ...

the lume plot at 3 near the date window is distinctive
regarding the sweep hand styles. I've really tried to study this, but I'm still not convinced that there is a clear rule about which references have which hand.

OK I will start with some that I've sold because I have photos on hand. I will do one watch per post. I will also dig out the ones I still own and take some photos.
