Citizen Promaster SikorskyvsDan Henry 1972

The Citizen Promaster Sikorsky is a large 46mm watch honoring the S-92 helicopter, featuring a busy dial with red, white, blue, and yellow accents, and helicopter blade-shaped hands. It houses a solar-powered U680 movement with atomic time syncing. On balance, owners find the Citizen Promaster Sikorsky to be a unique, albeit cluttered, limited edition timepiece.

Owners widely praise the Dan Henry 1972 Maverick for its cool retro style, 12-hour chronograph, sapphire crystal, and comfortable 40mm-equivalent wearability. The distinct chrono pusher clicks and the unique ability to turn off the running seconds are also noted strengths. However, the lume is not bright or evenly applied, and the alarm feature is considered poorly executed, with a quiet, short-lived alarm and a difficult-to-use pusher. One owner reported a negative customer service experience involving a dead quartz movement. Overall, owners rate the Dan Henry 1972 highly for its retro styling and value despite noted shortcomings in its lume and alarm functionality.
