Great review to kick off 2023🎉 What an unknown gem from Citizen (unknown by me, prior to watching). A milled clasp from AliX for 7.00 USD would really elevate this, and I really like the integrated brac. Regarding the hands being thinner than the indices, I'd have subconsciously noticed but never been able to articulate just what did seem a bit off about the dial - that is a very astute observation and the exact reason I love this channel. That's a very baffling design choice; just match the hands to the indicies for a clean, intentional look, and ditch the cyclops.

This Citizen looks nice enough, no real complaints, though I don't like the cyclops and the bracelet looks a bit average.

I love rolexes. I consider it to be the perfect gentleman's watch perfect to wear with a suit but blends very well with casual attire going from 36mm-40mm it is by far very comfortable to wear. Thats why when citizen or seiko provide an affordable alternative with a very comparable quality it makes it like tomato/tomatoe comparison sure if you want the prestigious rolex name for at $10k starting point by all means feel free to splurge, however a watch that can meet those standards at under $1k by all means it leaves you with over at least $9k to use elsewhere.

Both watches are great and I had the green version of this Citizen before it was released officially to the European market. But both the Tissot and Citizen are too big for my 17cm wrist. Maybe they fit well but the look of both watches are more classic than pure sport. I wouldnt call them dress watches but the purpose screams for a smaller case size plus the Citizen is not well proportioned on the dial. So I found the Seiko 5 SNK665 with the phenomanel globe dial and a 38mm case size. Unfortunately these watches are no longer produced and although I paid for a used one more than the listprice, it was still lower than both options here. But let me tell you, that if the Tissot or Citizen comes in 37/38mm version, I will be the first one to buy one :)

If I may join the conversation with my opinion based on experience living daily with a PRX 35mm quartz - the proportions, sizing, fit & finish, build quality and general ownership pleasure make it a very difficult watch to beat - I have owned a few higher end watches and can honestly say nothing I have owned (or tried) fits as well - which is surprising for such a ‘small’ watch - perhaps an older Rolex OP or Omega Aqua Terra but these cost thousands more - I haven’t found anything in between that comes even close - while I can’t quite say the PRX is a true ‘luxury’ watch it isn’t far off and is actually better finished than many watches I’ve tried costing 5 times as much - certainly it can be regarded as a ‘premium’ watch - for me the 35mm quartz is the ‘purist option because it’s essentially a 1 for 1 remake of the original Seastar upon which it is based - honestly though? I think about the only watch that could tempt me away would be the Vacheron Constantine 222 vintage size but at 100k? - I’ll stick with the PRX

I feel like the Citizen would look a bit better with a flatter bracelet, however I think it's a bit better than the PRX. Also, a little known problem with the PRX is that is uses a "synthetic"(plastic) escapement, which will wear out and has to be replaced by Swatch, as they don't sell the part, whereas the Citizen can be serviced. Ironically, the quartz PRX might be easier to keep running in the long run. I do think a bit of a higher end variant with a 9 series movement instead of the 8 series could be better as it'd be more accurate and thinner. P.S. Un An Nou fericit și toate cele bune!
