It's the Outer Banks today. Hot as blazes outside. Hope everyone staying comfortable and safe.

Arriving early September! Some watches are built for the summit. The Highball is built for the hour after. This is your Friday watch. Your rooftop watch. Your "one more round" watch. The Highball doesn't take itself too seriously — and that's exactly the point. Bold enough to get noticed across the bar, relaxed enough to wear all weekend without a second thought. Because not every adventure involves crampons and altitude. Sometimes it's just good company, a cold drink, and nowhere to be until Monday. Wear it well. Drink responsibly.

Have a magnificent Monday. (open for punchline)

The new Citizen Eco-Drive Diver has officially been christened. As any proper dive watch should, its first plunge was into the warm Caribbean waters rather than the safe confines of a watch box. It emerged without missing a beat—earning its saltwater stripes and proving it’s more than just another pretty dial.

Some places don't make it onto most maps. Carova sits at the very tip of North Carolina's Outer Banks, where the barrier island quietly crosses into Virginia — wild coastline, open sky, and the kind of unhurried confidence that comes from knowing exactly where you belong. That spirit is the CAROVA. Arriving in October. Designed by our in-house team (David and Neil, thank you.) A sport dress watch with no compromises. Our signature sand grain dial captures the texture of the shoreline itself. The double domed sapphire crystal adds vintage soul with modern scratch resistance. And look closely at the seconds hand — you'll find our mark: the oversized red-tipped sweep arrow. A quiet signal to those who know.
