Following the introduction of a special 30th anniversary Eco-Drive limited edition last month, Citizen has released the newest model in its Promaster series. The Promaster Sky U830 is a culmination of over thirty years of professional sports watch legacy, combining aviation-inspired design with advanced hybrid capabilities.

The Sky U830 features a 43 mm stainless-steel casing, available in either a polished silver or a bold black finish. The dial embodies the Sky lineage, including three intricately sculpted sub-dials at 12 o’clock and a slender, pilot-style slide-rule bezel for in-flight calculations. Contoured lugs, inspired by aircraft wings, seamlessly combine with a matching stainless-steel bracelet. A sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, lighted hands and indices, and a water resistance of 20 bar ensures exceptional reliability on land, in the air, or at sea.

The Sky U830 has Citizen's innovative Caliber U830 movement, integrating conventional analog hands with a high-resolution Memory-in-Pixel (MIP) digital display. This analog-digital amalgamation enables pilots and international travelers to access world time, a running chronograph, and several alarms immediately on the display, all while maintaining the watch's sleek design.

The Citizen Promaster Sky U830 is presently offered at prices between $635 and $795 USD through its official online stores and approved retailers.
