Nice to hear somebody advocating for Citizen. I have six of them, good honest well made workhorses that just do what you want, accurately tell the time, never stop and so far, have never needed servicing. They're eco drive of course. I'm a Quartz guy and have no shame that I wear them more than my Omegas.

@Matt-pp9hl Hi Matt, i would like to, but they seem to be difficult to find here in the UK. Ordering from overseas attracts a healthy import tax making them very expensive.

It just miss few second a day, which is not my main concern. Since I have had this Citizen watch, I pay more attention about Citizen and end up switch from seiko to the brand Citizen.

Two years ago I bought a Casio Oceanus OCW-T4000S, which is a very different watch from this Citizen, but it has a titanium case and bracelet. The case and edges of the middle links have chamfered edges that are high polished, and I can barely discover any scratches after two years of use. At $580 shipped from Japan it looks like Casio has also mastered working with titanium. It's unclear whether they do any surface treatment, although I've seen references to titanium carbide being used. I can definitely see that the Grand Seiko Taisetsu's case and dial finishing is a step up in quality from the Casio, but we're talking about a ten to one price difference. And the cheaper watch has a tool-less micro adjust, and better AR coating.

Titanium, while not inexpensive, is more affordable than commonly perceived. For example, titanium bikes can be found for around $1,000, with frames available for approximately $500. Given that a bike frame contains significantly more titanium than a watch, the material cost alone is not the primary factor driving the price of titanium watches. The challenge lies in the precision engineering required to craft refined titanium parts, a task that brands like Citizen excel at due to their advanced technology and expertise. Regarding the watch itself, it's stunning. Although I wasn't particularly drawn to the Tsuyosa collection before, this model is exceptionally appealing. The allure is heightened by its exquisite Eco-Drive movement, making it a highly tempting purchase.

Sorry, but I watched the video and i have to comment besides I'm not a watch guy. Never was. I have a garmin. The video said this citizen is a "integrated sports watch" What?? To my eyes it has zero sport functions. For this price you can buy a garmin fenix 7 which is a fabulous watch. Its a "smart" watch i know but its not a gimmick. Its a garmin!! The american special forces uses garmins because they built to reach military standards. For me this citizen looks like just a n+1 dopamine boost. A garmin can change your life. Literally. With the sport and health functions in the app. I meet a lot of famous and rich people because my job and its so good to see a lot of them also wearing some kind of garmin because for me it means that they have a commitment to performance and a serious approach to personal health. But hey. That is just me. I'm happy to go into a discussion.

I sat on the fence with picking one up until I seen it in the wild. The person wearing said how much they loved it. It's thing about watches until you get it in hand and wear it for a day, it's hard to tell what the overall experience is going to be like. I can vouch for this watch that it is special. For what you get in specs and how it feels and looks on the wrist. I paid less then $350 for the navy blue automatic but on the wrist it feels and looks like a thousand bucks or more!

Really ticks many boxes as you say and yet is cheap and stylish. Just found one on chrono24 which I think I will buy. Love the colour too and for me the chapter ring in black sets the whole dial off perfectly. Good video, well made. Update: I decided to contact my local Citizen outlet here in France. They are getting some more deliveries in the next two weeks or so which is fine for me. I was going to just order online but decided to wait and take a look at one in the flesh before buying. Really looking forward to hearing from my dealer.

i think my biggest gripe is the 8213 movement. Because I have a Citizen Pilot Watch with the 8213 movement in brown dial and green leather strap. And it only costed me like 185 dollars (converted to USD from SGD). It's a solid watch for the price considering it's automatic (and way better offering than any of the automatic garbage fossil offers) Personally I feel that if they at least went for a 9 series movement or at least a 8315 it'd been a perfect contender with the Swiss movement offerings that are either

It's not hard to work with in small volumes, such as a watch body. Milling and polishing it in such a small scale isn't much different than any other metal, and the extra cost is pennies. All the mills and polishing stuff used is the same, because they're all already harder than these metals, it just adds a tiny bit more wear and tear, but virtually insignificant.

This is a fantastic watch with great price and value. However, since I already own two PRX models-the Quartz Mint/Tiffany and the Ice Blue Automatic-I don't see a reason to own this one as well. Recently, I bought my first luxury watch, a Grand Seiko SBGX263, after collecting watches for two years. This purchase has made me much more selective; I no longer buy watches just because they're hyped. Now, I truly appreciate what I have. It's interesting how it works: the more expensive the watch, the less interesting the cheaper ones become. For reference, my first watch was a Seiko 5 DressKX.

That's how it begins when you first make the switch, but for many watch nerds it doesn't last. I hope it does for your sake though!😆

What a great watch and a great review. What would be better? Automatic or eco drive?

Hi. Where did you order this particular dial color version? Having a hard time seeing it available online for the US via reputable sites.

Yes, it also does not make sense to me when the watch dial has quartz, automatic etc written on it. These things should be written at the back.

Nice watch! But when I google NJ0180-80X it is the one with the green dial. I cannot find it with this grey dial, what is the name of the watch withe the grey dial?

Watch looks great, what you said sounds great but I just cant get behind the brand. I just cannot own a Citizen.

Thanks for calling this Citizen to my attention. As an aside, aesthetically the Tissot PRX dial is closer to the AP Royal Oak, maybe an homage to the RO. Just saying...

Is the movement justifiable? I can find a microbrand watch(Henry Archer for example) with 9000 series miyota movement around the same price. So super titanium alone worth the price?

As soon as I've seen it, it landed on my list "to buy". I'm just dying between tiffany or the green one. They're both so gorgeous

Really nice have a few citizens, like them. This one, for me, the small second hand is a deal breaker. Pity do like it a lot

These are nice. However, instead of being saddled with a me too watch, head over to Boldr and have a gander at their selection of micro brand nirvana before you pull the trigger on one of these Citizen's. Many equivalent Boldr watches are actually a bit less expensive, include name brand Japanese movements, titanium cases, and they have ton's of variety.

Check Christopher Ward 12 in titanium. IMO this is the sweet spot for a COSC certified Swiss Made integrated bracelet Titanium watch. 9mm thin too!

after all it comes down to the last question, can you change only the clasp part of the bracelet into a nice quality butterfly one? That would make the watch real classy.

Only problem with steel straps is the sheer weight for thin rists like mine and the the grip during sweat 😮😢 and that's why I like resin, rubber, leather bands.
