CITIZEN ATTESA New HAKUTO-R collaboration models echoing the deepest black of the furthest reaches of outer space
Citizen Watch will be releasing three new limited-edition ATTESA models equipped with the latest technologies from CITIZEN. These three new models were created in collaboration our corporate partner, ispace, inc., as part of their HAKUTO-R commercial lunar exploration program.
CITIZEN ATTESA HAKUTO-R Collaboration Limited Edition Model
CC4067-66E Limited edition of 2,300 pieces worldwide
ispace, founded in 2010, is publicly traded company focusing on lunar exploration and resource development. CITIZEN became a corporate sponsor of the program in 2019. Following the 2023 Mission 1, which obtained valuable data necessary for realizing a lunar landing, CITIZEN will be providing Super TitaniumTM*1 as a component of the landing legs in the upcoming Mission 2, which is scheduled for launch no earlier than December 2024.
* Launch schedule is accurate as of September 2024.
* Launch schedule is accurate as of September 2024.
The middle links of the bracelets on all three models are made of recrystallized titanium, a new material with unique crystal patterns on the surface that ensure that no two watches are the same. The mysterious patterns echo the endless black vastness of outer space and the monochromatic dial has three dimensional black crystal patterns accented by numerous small black components, creating a multi-layered structure combining varying shades of black. The city names on the sapphire bezel and the outer ring on the dial provide glittering silver accents, bringing to mind the image of a bright light shining in the darkness.
The CC4067-66E also provides incredible functionality – it is equipped with CITIZEN’s F950 movement, the ultimate movement for light-powered Eco-Drive satellite wave GPS watches*2. It is capable of receiving time signals in as little as 3 seconds – the fastest GPS satellite signal reception in the world*3 - and the hour and minute hands move rapidly to display the correct time.
The HAKUTO-R logo engraved on the case backs makes these limited-edition models truly special timepieces.

※1 Super Titanium™ is CITIZEN’s proprietary technology to treat solid titanium with surface hardening technology. It is at least 5 times harder than stainless steel, resistant to scratches, lightweight and gentle to the skin for comfortable wearing.
※2 Eco-Drive is CITIZEN’s proprietary technology that powers watches using any natural or artificial light source, eliminating the need to replace batteries. Certified as an Eco Mark product for the first time in the watch industry.
GPS satellite-synchronized watch captures the date and time signals sent by GPS satellites from space — orbiting 20,000 kilometers above the Earth — bringing ultra-precise timekeeping to wherever people are on the face of the globe.

※3 Fastest satellite signal reception in the world for an analog light-powered GPS satellite wave watch. Figure from CITIZEN’s in-house research, as of September 2023.
※4 Duratect is CITIZEN’s proprietary surface hardening technology that enhances the surface hardness of metals such as stainless steel and titanium, protecting watch bodies from scratches and damage. This technology offers excellent abrasion quality and maintains the luster of metals for long periods of time. Duratect DLC achieves Vickers hardness of 1,000-1,400 by creating an amorphous carbon hard film—mainly composed of carbon and hydrogen—on the surface of the material (Vickers hardness of stainless steel is approx. 200 HV).
