You could potentially contract some of the very serious diseases such as trichinosis, pentastomiasis, gnathostomiasis, and sparganosis by eating the meat of reptiles such as crocodiles, turtles, lizards, or snakes. But, all reptiles carry parasites, viruses, bacteria, and heavy metals that means they are not safe to eat. This was brought to you in partnership with Citizen.Anaconda found in marshes of Amazonia (Bolivia) Anaconda MeatĪnaconda meat is not poisonous and is safe to eat from that angle. Price: 2,354 Singapore dollars, or about US$1,670 Strap: Super Titanium bracelet with diving extensionĪvailability: Starting August 2022 at Citizen boutiques and retailers Material: Super Titanium with Duratect coatingįeatures: Hours, minutes, seconds, and date That’s more than three times the minimum dictated by the ISO standard for an anti-magnetic watch (which is pretty much most conventional watches).Ĭitizen Promaster Mechanical Diver 200 m Asia Limited Edition “Green Anaconda” 9051 is magnetism resistant thanks to its balance spring and escapement parts that are made of non-magnetic alloys, giving it magnetism resistance of 16,000 A/m. 9051, a significantly improved version of the standard 9000-series movement. Notably, the micro-adjustment mechanism can be engaged with the watch on the wrist, so the bracelet length can be adjusted on the fly The clasp is equipped with both micro-adjustment system as well as a wetsuit extension. The gold-plated insert has DLC-coated studs and sits within a DLC-coated bezel ring for pleasing contrast. The dial is in a verdant green that’s nevertheless livened up with by the warm, gold-tone accents on the hour markers and hands, which are echoed by the two-tone bezel with an insert of Duratect Gold, essentially hardened titanium coated with gold. The Green Anaconda gets it right in both tone and complements. While green is a faddish colour and more common than it should be, it is still attractive when applied in the right context. More broadly, it remains a value buy when compared to the competition, since similarly priced watches have less impressive specs, while similarly spec’ed watches usually cost more. And it is certainly more appealing given its design and relative scarcity (since the edition is a 500-piece run). While the Green Anaconda is not as much of a value proposition as the original, it is still fairly priced. For one, the original was supplied on a rubber strap instead of a bracelet. The appealing look does come at a price – the Green Anaconda retails for about 50% more than that of the original model.īut the price is justified by a couple of things. Though the Green Anaconda is largely a change of colours, it is decidedly more attractive than the muted original. With its sculpted lines and facets, the case is identical to the original but all black The dark finish also makes the watch look smaller than it is, which is useful given its 46 mm diameter. They are finished in diamond-like carbon (DLC), resulting in a charcoal finish that’s slightly glossy. The colours and textures are brought out even more by the contrast with the black-coated case and bracelet. The “Green Anaconda” certainly took that lesson to heart with its striking colours that leave the hobnail patterning seem even more obvious than before. Thought the watch was big and hard to miss, it was dressed almost entirely in shades of grey, which felt too restrained for the size and design. What the first version lacked, however, was flair. Its technical features are amongst the best in at its price segment, while the slightly exaggerated styling also helps it stand out in the crowded segment of affordable dive watches. The original model was easy to like, especially if you like chunky dive watches. Dressed in green and gold, the Promaster Mechanical Diver 200m Asia Limited Edition “Green Anaconda” has a hobnailed dial and bezel, while the case, bracelet, and bezel are all black coated. Now the watch returns in even more striking livery in a limited edition that will be available only in Asia. Introduced just last year, the Promaster Mechanical Diver 200m is an distinctive and compelling “tool” watch with an over-the-top style and impressive specs that include a hardened titanium case and magnetism-resistant movement.
