The clasp the part ot the watch that the wearer interacts with the most. So, watch manufacturers need to stop cheaping out on their clasps especially on watches with integrated bracelets. Instead of giving me a display caseback for an unremarkable movement, just put a solid caseback and a better clasp.

PRX style bracelet with Grand Seiko vibe dial. I feel like they understand the community better..

[@cameronmartin719]

Citizen needs to make a 1000 to 1500 dollar version of this. What they've done for $500 is very impressive, so much so that I want to see them release a more refined version at 2-3x the price.

[@tomroeder7348]

I personally don't see an issue with a stamped clasp. It's functionally identical to a milled one, and you can't see or feel the difference when the watch is on your wrist or in your watch box.

[@BryanO92]

You tried to be gentle with them for that clasp, when there's no need. These days, $50 Chinese no names come with a decent scissor clasp, there's no excuse whatsoever for it here. A deal breaker if I ever saw one.

Citizen is not super titanium, no its real name is Zenshin. I think Citizen managed to leave Tissot PRx behind in the competition, but I think it needs to work more on its mechanism, but I personally found it successful. For those who want a light and ergonomic watch, I would say Citizen Zenshin is the best.

I prefer citizens eco drive

Max is on a crusade against stamped and Grand Seiko clasps. I remember way back when he hated PRX. Never too late to jump on a bandwagon I suppose.

What a missed opportunity, only if it were smaller and thinner with solar quartz.

[@brianmartin4035]

Looks great but I could not possibly overlook that clasp. It's awful, inexcusable.

[@roo2dee2]

I'm glad to see Citizen stepping up their game, but I also think its criminal that since they also own Bulova, they haven't applied their Eco-Drive technology to the Lunar Pilot. Imagine the marketing for a Solar Powered Lunar Pilot. Here's hoping the YT review channels start asking Citizen about this.

man.. watching your videos is a good enough fix to keep the watch addiction at bay. There is always a new watch and there is always something missing… which leads to the continual search

[@GoTerpsGoBlue]

Eco drive 3 hand white dial on my list! Snow flake for a fraction of the price

[@nizarmurar]

Beautiful honest revew . Beautiful watch . Many thanks

[@vincentschneuwly9783]

Bought one for a friend's birthday, great value for money. Ways lighter than the Tsuyosa but yes it misses the butterfly clasp and the movement finishing from the small second Tsuyosa which would make that a watch a all time hit

[@fredstahl2823]

I own a Oceanus OCW-S100-1AJF that appears to spec out very similar to the eco drive version of this watch with great accuracy

[@MaryDoherty-q6b]

Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the

[@kevineccles7766]

Had a PRX and after it needed to be serviced 6 or so after buying in new. It developed “helicopter rotor” and had to be returned to Tissot. I also had another watch with a powermatic 80 that developed the same issue. I sold both of them due to movement unreliability. Before I sold the PRX, I bought a Tsuyosa. I owned both at the same time for a few months. The Tsuyosa got more wrist time, and the Citizen movement is seemingly bulletproof. A few months ago, I say the watch in this review on another channel and went right out and picked up one from mastersintime for about $400. They had it to me in the USA in under a week. After having both Citizens for a month or so, the Tsuyosa wasn’t getting any wrist time so I boxed it up and put it on the shelf. I guess I’ll be looking to sell it or trade it in before too long. The new watch looks great and wears better on my wrist than the Tsuyosa did. I’m very happy with the purchase.

[@drloch]

Toyoza haha. Sounds like a Toyota. Should be “Tsuyosa” Max haha…😂😂😂
