Citizen made for less what Grand Seiko couldn’t! A stunning diver dial!

Today we are looking at the beautiful Citizen Series8 890 NB6066-51W , a robust watch which works as a refined daily beater but as a diver as well.

wow, citizen is busy, lovely finish, beautiful dial, stunning finishing, love it, thanks buddy!

[@BraveBeaters]

Cheers! ❤️

[@johanvandersandt8904]

That is super pretty! I love the Series 8 and now its just elevated to another level! Fantastic dial, superb movement, great price! Whether you pick this or the Titanium Forza one you cant go wrong! Thanks for sharing Andrei!

[@BraveBeaters]

Cheers Johan! :)

[@simonschoettler3852]

The new 8Series looks stunning on the wrist! Thank's for introducing this one. CITIZEN turns a lot of heads in 2024 - a great contribution to this price segments in the world of watches.

[@claudtalkz2194]

Give this guy the thumbs up, for godsakes. He’s not posting for his health 😂🎉❤❤❤

[@AbdulRWatches]

Amazing watches, Citizen is definitely cementing itself as the King of affordable watches with that 400$ model, I even love their AW0130 and CA4610 models even more.

[@BraveBeaters]

Fully agree with you, Citizen is stepping up massively! Cheers! :)

[@user-kp1es7to6z]

My opinion is that Citizen is adventurous and test this new design combination of various brands of watches that they pick and put together. I like the dial it is extremely fascinating ❤

[@factoraedgerton]

Watches are so delicate and intricately designed, so I have intense respect and admiration for amzwatch watch makers

[@andrewd7586]

Stunning watch Andrei! Citizen has always had great products but have mostly flown under the radar. As a true Citizen fan from the early 70’s, I’m loving the attention it’s getting of late. 🤩👍🏼

[@BraveBeaters]

Agree! The brand gets a lot of attention lately. Cheers :)

[@christophfacius3885]

This dial with circulating indexes and just a crown and without the pusher. Then I would instantly buy it.

[@oliver1965]

Thx Andrei- just purchased the Citizen due to your review, hope for a great dial + pattern. Get going 🚀

[@Mr_Santo5]

Citizen has been putting out a lot of great looking watches in recent years. Right now when I am looking at the Japanese brands, they're the watches I am drawn to, especially the JDM models.

[@SingleTrackMined]

Series 8 here trying to do too many things...fancy dial in a dive (?)/GADA/EDC/PP homage...not sure what the one point of the watch is. Trying too hard to be too many things is a dealbreaker for me and I love Citizen. Great video...as always

[@BraveBeaters]

It's a mix of everything I'd say :) I agree, it's not niched enough. Cheers!

[@R.V.S.Aditya]

I could stare at that dial on The Citizen all day long, If the GS is not a spring drive, I'd go with the Citizen.

[@ahha6304]

This 8 is something I'm looking forward since the first new leaked, and never let me down. Only thing left is to see it is real piece, but Thailand's not that much chance

[@BraveBeaters]

Agree. Needs to be seen in flesh.

[@iXus78]

If I'm not mistaken, Citizen is exibiting their latest watches and the Series 8 at the Siam Paragon Watch & Jewelery Expo 2024 !from 26 July till 13 August. You can try to check it out in person there....

[@hollydillion1315]

Phew, almost thought they made their own Spring Drive until I watched this video!

[@cunawarit]

WOW! It's very nice! I don't think I'd want an automatic GADA, but this looks really nice! I hope these design elements are incorporated into a watch with a high accuracy movement sometime.

[@andrebreuer3264]

Very nice watch. The design is great. Salmon is not my color but it looks great. Thank you for the great review. Still I am not willing to pay such a premium price for a Citizen.

[@BraveBeaters]

Cheers! :)

[@sharanm5622]

Beautiful watches. Equally good review.

[@BraveBeaters]

❤️ Cheers!

[@ArmandBisho]

i like Citizen they offer great quality watches at reasonable price point i do owen quiet few of them just recently got 8 sieres gmt pepsi, promaster black dial & blue on braclet after watching your video on Forza i also purchased blue dial d/date and chrono salmon color Love them ! Good video!

[@BraveBeaters]

Thank you :)

[@SisramShivani]

Great video, very accurate analysis. In my 4.5 years in the game as a watch collector and enthusiast, I collected a lot from MaMaCoo I was thinking I was able to get a blue SD but I'm not vip enough, but I'm not giving up. Hehe. Great video.

[@ginocolella6373]

Citizen is kicking it, i love my titanium, smal second 🤗👌🏻👌🏻. Cheers Andrei 🙏

[@keysncoffee7733]

Ahh I need a less busy looking dial and it’d be perfect!

[@BraveBeaters]

There is another version, the Blue one which feels lesser busy

[@ZoidPickle]

The salmon colour looks nice, changing the bracelet might be tricky. Citizen look set to make some interesting pieces. Thanks bud. 👍

[@Hitman4seven-zv1pu]

The regulae Tsuyosa is still my fav

[@r.s.i8753]

I wish they had add lume to rotating bezel numbers

[@BraveBeaters]

Or at least on the pip. Agree!

[@slave2insanity]

I have this CITIZEN it's sooo damn good.🤟

[@BraveBeaters]

Uu! Congrats! Super cool model! ❤️

[@verynormalman]

BB, T4YC: Citizen are going places. Makes other brands look a bit conservative and old.

[@HameLaura]

Picked up a MaMaCoo 's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!

[@BAF605]

Some of the best bargains Citizen watches are JDM models self imported. I've just received an NB1050 model from Japan. Very good quality and I bought it heavily discounted from its already reasonable price. I like these two very much. Re your throwaway about an SKX as an everyday diver, why overpay for diminishing stock when the Citizen "Lefty" automatic ISO diver once used as the Italian Marina Militare's official dive watch is still widely available for less than £200??

[@BraveBeaters]

Those are iconic Promasters, indeed :)

[@lefroy1]

A lume pip would have been sooooo worth the effort required by Citizen.

[@tedblack2415]

Beautiful dial & priced accordingly but for whatever reason i don't find the overall aesthetic appealing personally.

[@BraveBeaters]

A metter of personal tastes, I agree :)

[@MazinAraimiWatchesClub]

I fell in love with the watch when i saw it in real life, but i had to step back when i saw the price, it's crawling on affordable swiss grounds

[@dendricalabro5058]

it looks like a tissot, but more expensive........................

[@BraveBeaters]

😅

[@AdebarLonge]

Thank you for making high quality videos!Love MAMACOO ’s watches

[@angrypenguin956]

The 8 looks like a nice enough watch, but I need to see that watch in the flesh (Steel) to get a better idea. It looks big on the wrist, but that might be just me. I have a small wrist, so big watches sometimes are an issue.

[@BraveBeaters]

I fully agree, needs to be seen in flesh :)

[@inksbartman]

MaMaCoo is best watch factory!!!

[@Sirleopard666]

Citizen rules ! 💪👏😎

[@CanadianEhHole]

Now they just need to make a regular Tsuyosa without a cyclops eye.

[@tachillecremonini387]

Wow🤩

[@bazislav]

Seems kinda ironic how citizen creates banger after banger in the 250-500$ price range with every detail thought out to perfection (even though some corners are cut which is ok), but in the 500-1200$ the designs are kinda... questionable, even though the quality improvements are there. I just really hope the up the good taste + individualty consistency on the mid-tier and then they will be unstoppable. Especially compared to seiko who intentionally add flaws into their designs up until the very high end in the recent years.

[@BraveBeaters]

I agree with you. In terms of consistency, it feels they are chasing multiple directions. Cheers

[@subhojitroy534]

Make a review on Citizen series 8 nb6032-53p

[@Alex4all]

Yeah, nah. Love the green one.

[@samnova450]

Seems the Series 8 should also be a Titanium watch.

[@BraveBeaters]

For sure they will

[@YanshienQuisote]

I've recently began my obsession as a watch collector. And i must say- out of all the luxury brands I've been researching, for me the amzwatch's watches are the most intriguing.

[@DaFox13]

🔥Citizen🔥

[@bertusbob]

👍👍👍

[@BraveBeaters]

Cheers! :)

[@NashvilleFanatic]

I love this but wish it was 40mm or less. :/

[@DzejWiJV]

1. Pink dial looks cheap to me 2. Still too big for most wrist 3. I am very picky 😎

[@BraveBeaters]

Haha! Cheers! :)

[@Baronnax]

Can someone explain to me what a "Tono" case is (7:03)? I've heard the term several times but can't find any definitions online.

[@BraveBeaters]

Tonneau case.

[@Baronnax]

@@BraveBeaters Oh, alright.

[@edjack1993]

Non-locking bezel? Odd choice.

[@bloodymarvelous4790]

The complex dial makes the watch hard to read. That triangle could have easily been lumed. As a dive watch, it's flawed.

[@crashtest4585]

Is it a genuine compressor?

[@BraveBeaters]

Nodoby does genuine compressors anymore :(

[@keithburford8589]

@@BraveBeaters I believe that Christopher Ward have just Re-released their C65 Super Compressor calling it the 'Elite'. A genuine compressor as opposed to a ' looks like one but isn't '

[@doraemonpawnz]

crazy, I was thinking of getting the tsuyosa small seconds and were having second thoughts with the titanium zenshin, now we have this? I don't think I can decide, what's your recommendation?

[@fabfour289]

[@siddhant46s54]

What is your wrist size mate ? Just to get an idea of the dimensions.

[@BraveBeaters]

Slightly above 7 inch in circumference.

[@Jetta4TDIR]

Gorgeous time piece but not for €1200

[@ashleyslingers2814]

Dial is a bit busy. Maybe these dials dont need to be so elaborate. Takes attention away from the overall watch design.

[@nejcn]

nice watch.... dont like integradet bracelet though... :/

[@khole15]

Wow, another too big watch from citizen. They really are stuck in the big clunky watch era still

[@renmr]

Citizen must make smaller watches.

[@svids998]

Unfortunately it says "citizen"

[@sacragon]

Make one of these in 35mm cowards!

[@BraveBeaters]

😅

[@cedarcanoe]

Not for me, too busy dial

[@thebatman4343]

Gotta stop with these click bait, Grand Seiko comparisons. 😂

[@BraveBeaters]

Why? it's a good reference towards GS. it's actually relevant

[@tvo6453]

Looks busy and borderline gaudy…no thanks…not my style

[@davidf3974]

It looks like a Mashup of everything popular in one, once again, citizen looks to me to be trying to imitate rather than present personality

[@demhana11]

As most Citizens. Lol

[@jesse-martinmanufor6248]

I agree

[@joeltroughton3021]

Wait we are trashing citizen watches now?

[@user-vv1qm5dj9c]

Another YT reviewer making a lame tagline about Citizen one-upping Grand Seiko. Just another example of how so many so called watch experts are unoriginal and uninspiring.

I guess there are more than 100, not 2 :D
