Only 2,000 people in the world will have this heart on their wrist. The NH9111-54L is not just a watch, it is a window into Japanese engineering. This Limited Edition stands out for its “Open Heart” dial at 7 o'clock, which allows you to see the mechanical movement beating in real time. With a deep blue dial with a sunray finish and spherical sapphire crystal, it combines watchmaking tradition with modern 10 BAR resistance. Made in Japan for those who value mechanics over electronics.

💓 “Open Heart” design: Unlike an inert quartz watch, here you can see the flywheel oscillating frantically. It's hypnotic and connects the wearer emotionally to the machine.

💎 Spherical Sapphire Crystal: It's not flat. The crystal has a slight curvature (domed) that gives it a beautiful vintage look and slightly distorts the light at the edges, as well as being virtually impossible to scratch.

🇯🇵 Made in Japan (JDM): This model belongs to the “Citizen Collection,” a line that is usually reserved for the Japanese domestic market, guaranteeing superior quality controls and finishes compared to standard export versions.

🌊 Total Versatility (100m WR): Although it looks like an elegant dress watch, it has a water resistance of 10 BAR. You can wash your hands, shower, or swim with it without fear, something rare in watches of this “dress” style.

⚙️ Caliber 8229 (Automatic + Winding): A reliable motor with 40 hours of reserve. It allows automatic winding with the movement of the arm and also supports manual winding by turning the crown (something purists appreciate).

If you're coming from titanium or tactical watches, the NH9111-54L is your “Mechanical Gentleman” choice.

The first thing you notice is the weight of the steel (138g). It feels solid, substantial. But the star of the show is the 8229 caliber. Citizen has skeletonized the main plate just above the balance wheel (at 7 o'clock) so you can see the “heart” beating at 6 vibrations per second.

A quality detail that often goes unnoticed is that it also has an exhibition caseback. You can take off your watch and admire the oscillating weight rotor.

It is a piece that plays on duality: it has the elegance of a dress watch with its clean blue sunray dial and applied indices, but the resistance of a sports watch thanks to its 100-meter water resistance and sapphire crystal. It is not a delicate watch that you have to keep in a safe; it is made to be worn.
