Citizen and Ball - Deja Vu???

When I saw the Citizen JT3000-59E I can't help but noticing the similiarity to some models from Ball watch. The Citizen JT3000-59E is a model under the Promaster Land series. It is a quartz watch (non Eco-drive) with analog and digital display.

As you can see from the picture the numerals on the watch look almost identical to certain Ball models at first glance. Of course, the Ball uses microgas for illumination whereas the Citizen uses lume.

There is huge difference in prices too. The entry model of Ball watch costs about twice the Citizen JT3000-59E. The one pictured above is a chronometer and should cost even more.

There is no basis for comparison between these two watches. Just can't help but notice the stricking similarities (at first glance) in dial design.
