no sapphire crystal ? That was not a smart move on the part of Citizen.
They have sapphire in many of their watches; this one was built to a price point that didn't call for sapphire glass. It's not a miss by Citizen, it was intentional to make it this affordable. To get sapphire you just move up a tier in their offerings.
That's like saying all the steel watches are not smart for not using titanium, or a Kia Soul is not smart for not including double-laminated glass.

Plenty of their stainless steel case/bands have a sapphire crystal.
I feel they missed the mark on this, and that's probably why it's on sale.

Of course your point about cutting cost is obvious but your analogy is off. A titanium case and bracelet with a mineral crystal is like putting a quality automatic movement in a plastic case and strap with a sapphire crystal. I doubt sapphire cost Citizen $20 but I'm guessing on that. They would have saved much more if they substituted stainless for titanium.
