I bought this one thinking it woudl be a fair mathc for the Orient Star and the Seiko King Samurai. Was I right? Ummm, you'll need to watch the video. Cheers, Jody

[@mediastarguest]

Not for me. I'm a Seiko enthusiast so the fact that the beze on this Citizen lines up perfectly with the chapter ring markers is unacceptable. The other thing that puts me off is the pressed clasp on a watch that costs 400 dollars - Seiko offer the same on their 1000 - dollar watches - why settle for a pressed clasp on a cheap watch when you can get it for a thousand dollars from Seiko ?

I love seeing more Citizens watches being reviewed more of this please.

[@joeybossolo7]

I picked one of the NY0119-19X Fugu “Asian market” special edition full lumed pieces on rubber for $200. It’s absolutely stellar.

[@nickhart958]

Great watches, stick it on a grey nato and forget about it. The rotor-wobble will make you giggle and you'll love how damn cool it is. It looks a bit 90s so has done it's ageing and will take everything you can throw at it! One of those watches that'll get cooler the more scratches it picks up.

[@SavedbyHim]

I picked my Fugu up because I thought it was the most compelling for the price. The military history, the great quality of the case finishing and the solid end links and the 60 click bezel is a joy to play with (I have the older version). Luckily I wear mine loose around the knuckle so the lack of micro adjust is not a big deal for me. Got mine for about 200 USD

[@ayeyo2711]

Most Seiko divers also have pressed indices instead of applied indices, with the lume simply layered on top. The lume is still great. The pressed and filled in indices of the SPB053 / 063 are particularly bright, but it that might be because they also appear to be using the same lume formula as the Marine Master models. The diameter of the bezel insert has a strong influence on how big or small the watch appears overall. Similar to how “all dial” watches appear larger than the overall diameter would suggest. I hope reviewers will some day start to measure the outer diameter of the dials for standard watches, and bezel inserts for divers and chronographs. I think it would help give us a better idea of how big or small a watch will appear on wrist. Great review as always, btw!

[@scottlalonde2878]

Agree. I've seen reviews where they say applied markers on the new Samurai when I'm pretty sure they're stamped. The lume is still good and just the fact some people think they're applied shows they did a good job. Also agree on dial size vs. case size. A pet peeve of mine is luxury watches that increase case size, but movement (and dial) size stay the same. It makes the bezel look to thick and the date look like it's creeping to the center.

[@wotanlau6099]

bought the Pepsi for my dad a few years ago, no sapphire and no hand winding, for about 200 dollars. The lume seems different though, it was blue lume with a green pip.

[@adityadarmadi6303]

I always love Citizens somehow. They're not pretty nor extravagant, almost boring. But I love it!

[@rickybobby6760]

I just picked up a cb5896-54x. Anything but boring and simple :-)

[@WesWatchRoom]

Very nice, I really like to see Citizen get showcased more as I think its a brand that get so easily overlooked compared to orient and seiko. Yeah $400 is a bit steep but I'm sure if you forego the 5 year warranty you could probably knock some off that. Do you happen to know if they make something similar but a bit smaller? Thanks.

[@mediastarguest]

Citizen make an "ecodrive" diver in blue and black options which is very similar, same case, similar dial and hands design, which is smaller at 43mm with 48mm lug to lug measurement - it wears significantly smaller on wrist and is very accurate and reliable.

[@WesWatchRoom]

[@martonpinter3738]

@@mediastarguest I have both, and I think the eco-drive wears bigger. It's not the same case, I prefer the FUGU case which is more curve-y, the eco-drive is a bit more industrial. Both wear great on small wrists though, so I wouldn't worry about that.

[@TimeForAnotherWatch]

I like Citizen and I like the styling of this watch, so I was hoping this one would be better at the price they're asking. Thanks for the review.

[@gyrfalcon7332]

The Fugu’s are great, though I’d pay an extra $50-$100 for an ungraded Miyota movement. Bracelet leaves some things to be desired. I’m confused by the width measurement you provided. My NY0091-83E measures just about 42mm.

[@bestvaluewatches]

Love these divers from citizen! Such a great option for people who want a budget dive watch! The hour markers are really cool! Interesting choice for the hands also I would say!

[@Skurtle]

Citizen comes so close in so many cases, they could achieve so much more with so little more effort, look at the BN0201-88L, titanium, divers, milled security clasp and sadly mineral crystal… Or the BN0211-09X, monoblock case, sapphire, duratect coated, second hand doesn’t hit the indices… Atleast the eco drives run like a good trained horse!

[@herewegoagain...]

I actually had that exact watch. It was a lovely watch, but yes, the mineral crystal was an odd choice. It was a flat crystal, so no complexity there, and even at a price of $300, I would have paid the extra $50 for sapphire. I will say one more thing on Citizen: they are obsessed with large watches. EVERY diver they have is at least 43-44mm, which is too big for me, and ultimately why I sold it. I understand that a of people like bigger watches, especially divers, but Citizen's lack of even one single diver around 41-42mm is odd.

[@frankyz007]

I have bought few days ago a citizen ecodrive 200m which has the same size. The crown IS at 4, and 60 clicks on the bezel and fully brushed case, i took the green model which IS really great. The lum IS blue and really good After 20mn. I like it really much, it became my daily watch. Thanks for your videos i am a great fan for a long Time!!! Stay as you are...😎😎😎

[@mediastarguest]

I purchased this from an A.D. in the UK at a discounted sale price of £279, reduced from £399. Mine has a slighly different dial - it is the blue "crusted" effect which I guess is supposed to depict ocean waves. Tbh, I was surprised to see it in the store at all - I was under the impression this limited edition was only available in Asia. It's my second Citizen, I've had a 200m Promaster diver for six years, very versatile. This Fugu is very chunky, masculine and purposeful-looking and has a great deal of prescence, possibly too much presence; you need at least a 7-inch wrist for this "beast." Having said that, our dear Scotsman is absolutely right about the clasp - which is the Fugu's only downside; "no diver extension, cheap and hardly any micro adjustment." A 100% accurate review.

[@cuestion-de-tiempo]

This is the new fugu which is bigger in dimensions from the original version since 1989 (42x46x12x20) , this new one also comes with sapphire and 120 clicks bezel, upgraded movement as well…

[@gamesetmatt23]

I could get behind this at maybe $350AUD, I'd probably stretch to $400 at most. But I'd be swapping out that clasp first chance I got! I actually quite like the markers, especially that blocky 12 o'clock marker--kinda interesting. And those cute little tips to the 12,6,9 are nice and vaguely Turtle-esque. But I think the clincher for me is perhaps the ugliest set of hands I've seen in some time? Yep, not for me I don't think.

[@TerryHesticles]

The Fugu you, Fugu me part had me rolling 😂 but yeah it does seem like an old watch when you sum it up

[@leonidaslantz5249]

I have the FUGU ProMaster with the white dial and although the clasp is a stinker, the watch itself is fantastic. Additionally,the Citizen Watch 5 yr warranty is crazy good. I seriously luv mine.

[@PhineasPhlob]

Looking forward to the Citizen/Seiko/Orient comparison. Would be interested in seeing the winner from those three put up against a micro-brand and an Ali Express equivalent as well.

[@craigwthomson]

I’ve had my NY0040 with the lume dial for around ten years. I’ve dived with it a few times and whilst it only has a folded link bracelet, it has a ratcheting clasp with loads of adjustment. I recently ordered a Kamasu, but I might look to add this one to my collection in future. Thanks for the review Jodi. Best wishes for the festive season from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@awsomemustang]

Im really surprised how much better made my 23 year old ny0040 is than this , especially considering the lume glows brightly and evenly in comparison to this

Same here my ny0040 from 92 has a better bracelet with security clasp, ratcheting divers extension with plenty of micro adjust. The full lume ny0040 I got 5 years ago has pretty much the same bracelet albeit flared at the lugs however the lume is mental and worth having. I love the ny0040 for it's no nonsense straight forward innocent charm just like the Seiko SKX, in fact I want a blue one next.

[@In.New.York.I.Milly.Rock.]

At this point in time, not having kept up with all Simpsons episodes is actually a blessing. Season 2 was still a good one tho. As for the watch, not really my taste, mostly due to that bezel.

[@IceDree]

I kinda like it, I didn't see that one coming lol. I love Citizen's knurled crowns. On a sidenote, to get Citizen's 5 year warranty, you have to buy it from an authorized dealer in your country. Importing it from another country doesn't qualify it for the extended warranty. Love the intro, Jody!

[@duncanhamilton5841]

They got rid of the underpants 12 o'clock index. Did love my old NY0087-13EE - cheap at chips, all lined up, super finishing

Thank you Jody for a GREAT review. As always you give us the good, the bad and the ugly. I can always count on a factual and honest review regardless of which way the dial is going to turn, whether it's good or bad, you give it to us straight and that's why you're over 200k subscribers. Have to admit I do not have a citizen watch yet in my collection. One of these days either you, TGV or MWC will review one that I will just have to have and that will be it. Trying to finalize which watch I'm going to want for Christmas this year but we'll see. Right now I'm leaning towards a Seiko dive watch but we'll see. Love Seiko (thanks to TGV) and I don't have one of their dive watches in my collection. Have five Seiko watches, just not a diver. Thank you for ALL you do for our watch community!

[@boristabacsplatt6609]

Another great review Jody and you hit the nail on the head. A compromised watch which is much too expensive. I've got the smaller NY0040 automatic which is smaller, cheaper and much better in all respects. It cost me just shy of £150 on rubber and came with the 5y warrantee +1y extra for on-line registration - bargain! The watch has hardly change since its launch in 1993 and the current model comes with the improved 8204 hacking movement.

[@nickhannaford3253]

One of these has been on my list for a everyday watch for ages. It’s just my Vostok keeps on working 😎. I’ll make a mental note to pick one up on a rubber strap. That clasp definitely looks naff. Maybe at the price I should go for an Arnie first which is also on my list😁.

[@christopherjohnson4276]

I don't mind Citizen. But I've bought Seiko instead. Maybe the Eco-drive will make its way in my collection someday, but probably not an auto. Cracking review. Hello from a snowy Ohioooo! ❄ 🌨

That was a classic episode.

[@brianmsahin]

It's a very good looking diver and certified too. I don't mind no reflectively coating, there's not much sunshine to worry about while diving! The lume however is the problem. That kills it. It doesn't deserve a "Diver's 200m " if it doesn't have exceptional lume. The bracelet is strange but most divers put their watches on a rubber strap anyway.

[@Hard_7_Iron]

I just chickened out on a FUGU….weeks and weeks I saved and viewed various models. I just could not justify the additional cash for a Promaster LH watch. And ship dates were all over the place! Not to mention that clasp! I ended up buying a LH Pepsi Promaster…non-FUGU. We do have a home in Asia that we go to yearly…when not in lockdown or restricted travels. Maybe our next trip home, I can find one I like. Fugu or not…I have an older Citizen diver that is 12 years old, and looks brand new. This will be my second Citizen. I’m looking forward to it arriving. Great review. Enjoy the watch.

[@sl8ight_yt]

[@SingleTrackMined]

[@TheTobias81]

Jeez, they're using the same clasp as on the Skyhawk Blue Angels. I think it's fine on that watch, but not on a diver, totally agree with you.

[@errolmacdonald3256]

No need at all to apologize for the shorts & T-shirt. They are ackshully highly appropriate. Tell you why: the irises; a classic J-flower often seen in ukiyoe (wood-block prints). You are in good company then, for even the stoutest of samurai might have a men's kimono like your Tee. Carry on!

[@theeverydaywatchcollector8036]

A very interesting offering by Citizen that I actually wasn't aware of. There's definitely some potential here, but I do think Seiko and Orient still have a lot more to offer in terms of value, design, and specs

[@jasongriffiths1035]

Just goes to show how much a brand can influence a sale. I'm quite sure you can get a better calibre for a fraction of the price of this if you start looking at Orient, San Martin and Heimdallr etc. Saying that I own 5 Eco drives 1 being a promaster CA0710-82L and they are all in my permanent desk diver rotation 🙂

[@KingInk91]

I 'm so happy to see more Citizen models being brought on youtube, other than the classic promaster. Even among the ecodrivers i can't really name an icon reference. Their all cute, all nice, all eco ... but none of them ever really blew my mind. You grab one just to add an eco drive to the collection. Said so I'd never pick a fugu over a turtle. Sorry Citizen but good work, keep it up!

[@EmceeChoo]

Might be a hot take, but as someone who rushed to buy the NY0080-12x cause it reminded him of the NY0040 that I wanted so badly as a kid, I feel a bit shafted when they re-released updated models almost every year, when the first run of the Fugu series was supposed to be "Limited Edition". Really would have loved the same dimension with a Miyota 9000 series movement for an updated releases. Side note, the hour hand on my NY0080, has a slight smudge (like a dark spot, probably not enough layer of lume paint), and Citizen said it did not fall under warranty and I couldn't get it changed.

[@thisispw]

I have the BN0150-61E with the excellent milled clasp and sliding dive extension, I also put it on a blue version of the watch and it really works.

I have just the one Citizen diver, six Orients (including the Orient Star in the comparison) and no Seiko divers (but two Islanders w/NH36 movements).

Great review, as usual. If I had a vacancy in my dive watch rotation I would consider this watch a candidate. In a few shots it appears that one of the bracelet pins is sitting proud of the link. Careful with that. It is bound to catch on something or - worse - fall out completely. Usually that happens at the most inopportune time possible.
