Citizen Attesa Death Star Phase Model Star Wars watch, Digi Mart USA News: Citizen has launched a new limited-edition Star Wars watch called the Attesa Death Star Phase Model (BY1004-50E). Instead of the traditional Moon illustration in its moonphase display, the watch shows the Galactic Empire’s Death Star, and production is limited to 1,500 units worldwide, according to the publisher report.
The watch has an all-black design with a 41.5 mm Super Titanium case and matching bracelet treated with a black DLC coating. The dial’s moonphase complication sits at the six o’clock position, where the Death Star takes centre stage, while other design elements are more subtle.
Inside is Citizen’s H874 Eco-Drive movement, the same movement used in the Attesa Ever Since Limited Edition announced last month. It includes the company’s Luna Program technology, which automatically calculates and adjusts the moonphase display using calendar information, and users can switch between Northern and Southern Hemisphere representations.
Additional features include radio-controlled time synchronisation, a perpetual calendar, world time and a power reserve indicator. The source states the movement can run for up to 2.5 years on a full charge with power-saving mode enabled.
A sapphire crystal protects the dial, the watch is rated to 100 meters of water resistance, and it measures 10.8 mm thick.
This is not Citizen’s first Star Wars collaboration. Earlier this year, the company introduced the Imperial Battle AW1857-57W, which also featured the Death Star, along with a considerably more expensive Mandalorian-themed Attesa.
According to a Japanese retailer cited in the report, the Death Star Phase Model launched in Japan on November 5 for ¥162,800 ($1,019). The report also says it has appeared on Citizen’s US website with a listed retail price of $1,500.
