The unique patterns of the lunar surface and its shifting shadows are natural wonders of space – and are exclusively captured in the design of the new Hakuto-R timepiece. Created as the second collaboration with the HAKUTO-R Japanese lunar exploration program and ispace, this limited-edition model depicts the unique lunar surface patterns with newly developed Recrystallized Titanium.* In addition, Citizen has provided Super Titanium™ parts for the legs of the project’s lunar lander. This latest collaboration model uses the same material on the lunar lander’s legs: Super Titanium™ treated with Duratect DLC. The striking design combines the recrystallized titanium with Duratect DLC and features an all-black dial, case, and bracelet, taking inspiration from the mystery and infinite darkness of outer space. The ring, indices, and subdials create a multi-layered structure on the dial, with a black-toned pattern inspired by titanium crystals. The case back has a diagram of the HAKUTO-R lunar lander that includes the Super Titanium™ parts made by Citizen. Featuring GPS timekeeping with worldwide reception that enables the world’s fastest signal reception speed from GPS navigation satellites, the watch can receive time signals in as little as 3 seconds – and the hour and minute hands move twice as fast as previous GPS models to rapidly display the current time. This high-performance timepiece includes a Double Direct Flight and a 1/20 chronometer function. Advanced features also include world time in 27 cities (40 time zones), a chronograph, dual time zones, a universal coordinated time display, a perpetual calendar, as well as daylight savings time, power reserve, and light level indicators. Powered by Eco-Drive technology that never needs a battery, this one-of-kind watch is a collector’s piece for space enthusiasts and luxury watch lovers alike. Limited to 1000 unnumbered pieces worldwide. Caliber number F950.

I didn't want to spend the money but I'm glad I did, I'm picky about the esthetics of things like this especially for the value. I love this watch, however I wish there was a durable or replaceable transparent cover for the image on the back. After just a week of normal wear the band has caused several fine scratches in the acrylic image on the inside when I am not wearing it. The clasp has also gotten some scratches pretty easily and I've been very careful not to damage it. Maybe I overestimated the coating, I just didn't expect fine scratches to occur so soon with all the hype about titanium strength and the coating applied. Utilities, style, and functionality are exactly what I wanted in this watch.

The watch is amazing. The satellite wave keeps it very accurate and the super titanium keeps it very light on the wrist.

This limited edition satellite watch is a very alluring, very unique timepiece. Only 1000 of these have been made worldwide, though the fact they are un-numbered is somewhat disappointing given the cost. The look of both the watch face and wristband give impressions of what the lunar surface may be like. Considering the cost, beauty and intricacy of this watch they could have been lengthier and more detailed in their writeup. Citizen watches of 1/4 the cost include a much more detailed description of their watches and features. I would love to know more of the back story of this watch which accounts for it's value. Nonetheless, this limited edition, masculine timepiece will be proudly displayed on my wrist and dresser for many years to come.

Well designed watch with many unusual features. Alarm, stopwatch and ability to sync with satellites all work as designed.

I received my watch in the mail today. And let me start off saying. The pictures of the watch online don't do it justice. It's a simply gorgeous time piece

The Hakuto-R is an OUTSTANDING watch. Can be worn for casual or formal. Super light weight because of the Super Titanium components. I've had lots of comments about the watch.

I was STOKED to buy this watch. I already own the 50th Anniversary Edition Super Titanium watch and love it, so naturally I wanted this one too. Well, I have owned the watch for less than two weeks and the finish is already wearing off on locking clasp. This is extremely disappointing for a watch that costs $3500.
