Citizen Independent Ana-Digi Temp Black 8989 version

If you've been following my blog for a while, you may have guessed that I like the Ana-Digi Temp watches by Citizen. The watches were the first ever electronic watches with a temperature sensor and appeared in 1982. You can find out more about the range in my overview page (link in the top right of the page in the web version).

This one is my most modern version and was released as part of the Citizen Independent range.

The Citizen Independent range was released in the late 00s as a regeneration of the older independent 1481010 watch collection. Many different designs have been issued under this range, and the collection is still going with new designs every year.

This version of the Ana-Digi Temp watches has a more modern look than the normal design. It has a one piece glass front covering the whole face making it very shiny. The body also plastic compared to the normal metal case.

It runs with an 8989 module and has the usual 2 electronic dials, a 2-part LCD time display, and an LCD mode indicator. Modes include dual time, alarm, stopwatch, and of-course a temperature reading. Each dial and display has multiple uses, and full details of these can be found in my overview page.

The full model number is 8989-003431-02.
