Citizen Attesa AT8040-57L Review

A full review of the Attesa which is a step up Citizen JDM model.

No words... Except that this citizen answers very well to Oceanus... The quality of the watch seems to be in a good singularity with this one of your video. Thank you for the review and the announcement of the watch (I saw it for the first time here, so it was announcement for me).

Yes, I was very surprised with citizen. Thanks a lot!

[@artemisXsidecross]

An excellent watch and a review to match. Thank you.

[@RvP6384]

Really like your reviews!

[@watchroll3310]

Thank you so much!

You should compare this to the OCW-t3000 with blue dial. They are very similar in price, looks, and functionality. From what I've seen online, I like the Casio better. But I've seen neither in person

How do we set time on it.. Please share the video link if any

I've been on the fence about picking up an Oceanus. I owned a t200 and loved it! But I'm looking for a chronograph. My budget is about $750. Would you recommend an Oceanus model or a Citizen Attesa?

[@impact0r]

+1 on that question

[@brocklanders6969]

I have the Oceanus S100 black dial and S150 ice blue dial. Once you have titanium, it is hard to go back to steel.

A special watch

Awesome review, love the watch for me the solar texture looks beautiful. At the end of the review you mention there is no equal to japan for atomic solar but what do you think of the German Junghans meister mega solar? Does it compare or does Casio and Citizen blow it away?

[@watchroll3310]

I checked out this Junghans mega solar that by the way thanks for letting me know. It looks great, the quality looks amazing. If anybody could rival the Japanese is the Germans. I still believe is not a match for the high end models. Citizen offers really high end hybrid GPS atomic watches. One thing I noticed about the Junghans is that the motors are slower than the high speed motors citizen and casio makes. It looks like the hour and minute hand on the junghans are also not independent from eachother. Also I think japanese watches might be a little more user friendly to use. They have more features and there is just more into their technology like this locking system, casios tough movement that is strategically assembled based on densities and weight of materials to make it very tough, the type of materials like Duratec alpha which is harder than saphire, etc. It would be very interesting to have this Junghans compared with a high end Japanese radio/gps model. There is also the high end +4k G-shocks which are radio solar. I don't think they can compete with the variety of options and technology that the japanese has but I definetly was delighted to see the quality of the junghans movement and I would think is a good option if you like the Iconic unique design that Junghans offers.

@@watchroll3310 If you could get your hands on one I would love to see your own thoughts and comparisons to the Citizen and the Oceanus! Maybe some day...
