They REALLY did THAT! | Citizen Tsuyosa NJ-0151-81 Collection Review

[@marcos2606]

The Gubel test alone deserves the thumbs up. it might be one of the best looking citizen I've seen recently.

[@zaratustra27]

Kudos to Jenny for being partial, yet submitting to Gumbi's wisdom

[@JasonTheWatchGuy]

Think people forget the look of certain Citizens from the 70's/80's. I think this is more of a modern take on their vintage catalogue. Love the yellow dial, really striking and a nice budget deal

[@alphacause]

In a world where Seiko is known as the dominate Japanese watchmaker for highly polished dressy watches and durable dive watches , and where Casio is synonymous with rugged and tactical watches from that same country, Citizen often gets overlooked when discussions arise regarding Japanese watches. That is unfortunate because Citizen produces some beautifully crafted watches, and their higher tier watches have some pretty eye catching designs. Granted, many of those stellar designs are in cases that are too large, but that not withstanding, they are a brand that should not be overlooked or ignored. Thank you Jenny for featuring them.

[@XenFPV]

I associate Citizen with busy overdesigned chronograph watches unfortunately, even though some of their designs are really nice that's what I see in jewelers windows.

[@hibernopithecus7500]

Ah, but 44/45mm is my sweet spot. Yay Citizen!

[@balesjo]

Agreed with you, Citizen does get overlooked. When I went to college, Citizens were generally worn by students on a budget and you could buy them at discount stores along with Timex. The company, like the other brands, tends to reserve some of their better designs and finished watches for their domestic market, but if you're willing to order from oversears you can get some great deals on watches that will be unique in many countries. Currently I'm looking at a Citizen Mechanical Silver Leaf Lacquer Dial NB1060-12 (JDM) watch with a dial that rivals that on many of the Seiko Presage line. The blue-green dial makes me feel like I'm looking into a deep pool of water. Runs about $700 USD so competitive with many of the Presage line.

[@alphacause]

@@hibernopithecus7500 I am happy for you, but as a guy with embarrassingly small wrists, watches with a width of 44 mm and above starts to look cartoonishly large on my wrists. The only watches that I will wear that are that large or larger are Casio G-Shocks as they have a tactical look, and appearing large and muscular is part of their appeal. However for the more dressy or casual look 38mm to 41mm is ideal for me.

[@alphacause]

@@balesjo Thanks for informing about the Silver Leaf. It looks beautiful and definitely can rival the Seiko Presage - a line of Seiko that I love and, of which, I own two. Speaking of higher end Citizens, I have grown particularly fond of Citizen's Attesa line. They strike a nice balance between dress and sporty.

[@steveb4012]

I'm a huge Citizen fan and it's been nice to see the brand appearing on channels such as yours and Teddy's. I think Citizen should consider a quartz version as well. The main problem for this watch is the mighty Tissot PRX.

[@kerosamaan6327]

Yeh I think the integrated band on the prx is just much better

[@randomdude7345]

But these are cheaper. Automatic prx is costly.

[@GOLDENEYEAL]

The tissot prx is unoriginal, ots basically a cheap royal oak. This is much much better

[@tiagodvt]

I own both a Powermatic 80 PRX (blue dial) and a Citizen Tsuyosa (yellow). The PRX is miles ahead imo, but it costs 3x more, so it should. Even the quartz PRX costs considerably more than the Automatic Citizen. Citizen offers great value - this is a watch that you can easily buy under 250bucks and you are getting the integrated bracelet design, a sapphire crystal and a reliable movement (the new versions even hack - mine doesn't actually, it's one of the first batches). I don't think the PRX is "the main pronlem" to this Citizen - they can definitely coexist and the Citizen is getting to a market that the PRX doesn't.

[@baturmusaogullar4056]

I definitely agree with you, my friend. The same watches with the same colours as exactly same as these ones must be created with Quartz versions as I personally do not like automatics falling behind in time due to their very mechanism.

[@dr885]

the smaller propotion of its lug to diameter, actually makes it looks and wears better than prx

[@balesjo]

I have the Tissot PRX Automatic and have to agree with you, the quality is indeed on a higher level. But the Civilian is a very close homage to the PRX at a slightly lower price point than the Tissot. But I do want to say, I bought my first Citizen watch for my 68th birthday, the Citizen Promaster Land Titanium with Blue dial. Movement is the EcoDrive. I keep it out on my desk when not being worn so that it stays charged from the room lights. It was a surprisingly nice watch, a perfect size for my small wrist, and seems to be finished nicely. The bracelet is quite nice too. It is a JDM so I had to order it. Price was $350 so competitive with Seiko EcoDrives. I have noticed several other Citizen JDM watches that I like that use the Miyota 9xxx movements (I have a micro-brand watch with the Miyota 9015 I'm wearing right now. The movement has proven to be one of the most accurate in my collection so far).

[@iXus78]

If I'm not wrong, this case design was used by the Rolex Oyster Quartz first in 1977, followed by Tissot Seastar Quartz in 1978 which looks very similar like a copy (which they re-release in recent years as the PRX collection). Citizen also released a number of Eagle 7 collections back in the 80's with many different case designs, with one of them having some resembling design with the Oyster Quartz as well. This new NJ015* Tsuyosa was a re-release of one of the original designs of Citizen Eagle 7 back in the 80's.

[@TheChzoronzon]

No, it's not It's similar, but neither the case nor the size nor the dial are the same. In fact, even the Miyota movement is a more modern version, 8210 vs 8200

[@iXus78]

@TheChzoronzon Citizen Eagle 7 did launched an exact case design for this new Tsuyosa, probably in mid or late 80's. Of course, the case is smaller at that time, and yes, the dial design is different and at that time, they use the 8200 with day date complication. This new Tsuyosa is an upgrade version to the original in terms of a larger case size, a Sapphire glass, solid bracelet, a very clean dial design without the day & the Eagle 7 logo and a different movement with a date complication only.

[@TheChzoronzon]

@@iXus78 I can't find any case from back then that is EXACTLY the same in their old catalogues... just some SIMILAR, as I said. But if you want to post the precise Reference, I'll check :) Or link to a pic, if that's easier for you

[@brianmsahin]

It's a pretty nice looking watch. Citizen are beginning to make some interesting watches. That tucked in crown is similar to older Seiko 5 pieces though those Seiko's seem to have given the same look while making it easier to pull out and negotiate the positions. Excellent review as always. I do like the green and yellow dials. Glad you're feeling better. Have a great 2023!

[@hibernopithecus7500]

One of the most subtly striking watches I’ve seen in a while is the Axiom BM7580-51L, as recently featured on Watchfinder’s “Watches Under $300” videos. As a technical design, it struck me as something that was designed by a Zoomer who was tasked with designing a watch that someone in the 70s thought watches would look like in 50 years. And from a more “romantic” (for want of a better word) perspective, it’s like that person whose blended in with your environment for years suddenly getting a hair style or wearing an outfit that, while not killer, perfectly accentuates their best feature, but then they go back, only now you notice them first everywhere & can’t remember why. See, now, that’s not supposed to happen with a Citizen 😄

I have had my Tsuyosa for three months now. I must say I am delighted with the watch. I like every aspect of the watch, but if I could change anything, I would improve the quality of the clasp, it works well but looks ordinary. The crown is initially a little difficult, but you soon get used to it. For the price a good buy.

9:48 Jenni, nice informative review but you do give the impression here that the Tissot PRX Powermatic is just a *little bit more expensive* than the Citizen Tsuyosa. It certainly is not as *it's more than double the price.* I believe the Tsuyosa is a winner in the USD300 price range considering the features and overall value. Btw , the Tiffany blue dial one does exist but is only sold in Asia, albeit in very limited supply, for now.

[@halfsourlizard9319]

Or... Just buy both!?

[@thelordyourtodd]

I was deciding between the yellow dial, and the "Tiffany Blue" one. Went with the yellow dial eventually. The Tiffany Blue is more Ice Blue in person, I would say. The yellow one simply has more personality. Wonder how the white dial would look on my wrist though.

[@gianpakasa]

This watch is PRX killer. We can argue only about the clasp. Anything else is slightly better than PRX. I can't forgive Tissot for not being able to give us a second hand that hits the markers, in their quartz version!!!

[@Edward-hb9qb]

The unfavorable critique of the clasp is an overstatement. Don't get me wrong, the clasp could be better, but I appreciate the micro-adjustment. The only thing the Prx does better is the clasp and how it fits on the wrist; the lugs on the Prx have a better angle, so it hugs the wrist better. The lugs on the Citizen are short and don't have a sharper angle, creating a small space where the bracelets and lugs connect. I don't understand why KZbinrs give PRX automatic so much hype. The movement is not even serviceable. It is a con; they try and sell you the idea that this is a watch you can pass down a few generations because the build is excellent at an affordable price, but to service these watches, all that happens is they switch out the entire movement. Modern attitudes about watches may find it acceptable to call the watch the original watch even if the whole movement was replaced and not actually serviced (fixing/replacing just the broken part.) The parts are from China. It costs about 20$ to 30$ to make.

[@Schmidt54]

I have the one with the yellow dial, it is my only expensive watch and I love it. A bit hard to wind because of the tucked crown. Gotta say that the advantage is that it makes the watch looks more slick and the crown isn't in the way. I wear it daily/for work. Would absolutely buy again.

[@olivierpietrzak8218]

Lucky to find the yellow. Impossible to buy it now.

[@lmijs]

The scientific tests swayed me to buying one. Went to the nearest Citizen shop, and found 3 available choices. Yellow, Tiffany, and the last which I ended up taking home is the NJ0151-88L. It has textured gradient blue dial with green tint on the indices instead of pure white. I find the contrast to be just on the right spot without sacrificing legibility.

[@beyond36horology]

I've both the Tiffany (NJ0151) and Orange (NJ0150) coloured Citizens and have reviewed them on my channel. The bracelet does not feel cheap, but it is a chunky bracelet that is apparent on my 6.25inch wrist. As to why certain colours not being available in the West, it really is a mystery. Perhaps they were concerned about IP issues for these colours, as the darker colours are more mainstream?

[@paranaqueboy]

Long time fan! (relatively speaking of course) 😅

[@andreasdelis3411]

I ordered one of these in yellow as I could not get my hands on an OP in yellow before it was discontinued. I then discovered the Christopher Ward C63 Sealander in yellow which I finally got instead of the Citizen. Yes, that one costs more, but at 36mm it has a better size for me, it‘s got a 150m water resistance, a lacquered dial with no sunburst (which I prefer for a yellow dial), etc. All in all, I‘m very happy I spent the extra cash on the Sealander.

[@ImOothman]

This is a great wearing watch for everyday use. I’ve got the multicolor “Star Trek” version and I absolutely love it.

First, Jenni welcome back! I'm pleased to see you branching out into watches whose cost is less than the sales tax on most watches you reciee. I think this is an ok watch for the money. I'd like to not see split pins in the bracelet, but the dial colors are a brilliant idea. I'm not a fan at all of the Miyota movements, but they did a great job of making it pretty. I'd say they made the right compromises to reach that price point. All in all, a decent watch and a nice starter watch.

[@BEM_01]

The body of the watch is very angular while the bracelet is rounded. Looks like a mash-up watch to me. Hope they continue this line and improve on aesthetic and possibly release a smaller one.

Love the side to side comparison. To call this a homage bordering on counterfeit is a far stretch in my opinion. The difference in proportions is significant. The feature I especially appreciate is the angled/beveled edges of the bezel and case. I prefer it over the roundness of the Rolex. Also gives a very different look to the lugs with that integrated bracelet. The bracelet, yes, that does look alike. I am glad it does 🤤

[@nmcduff4891]

Like many watch fans, I got to thinking about where it all began. In primary school, I had a Timex, manual wind. In Grammar school (11-16 years), I had a Rotary automatic. Everything changed when I saw the Clint Eastwood Dollars movies and Lee van Cleef had the musical pocket watch, and I wanted one. You can still buy a modern, made in China version today. Like everyone, I bought a Seiko quartz ('someday, all watches will be made this way' said the adverts), and then we moved onto radio controlled watches for better accuracy. The debate was Swiss vs Japanese watch technology, and the clear winner was Junghans Max Bill. I now buy mainly German watches from the Glashutte region. Muhle is my favourite, but my Nomos Aquis is beautiful. There are too many watches to know them all. but I would recommend any enthusiast to buy a couple of textbooks. We can all learn a little from the past. Best wishes and I love the tattoos ;-)

[@FlorinC1984]

The Tissot is TIWCE the price, while being only marginally superior in build quality and finish. I held the 2 side-by side and I still find the Citizen to be "vivid", while the Tissot is... sharp, cold and angular. So, please, don't recommend the Tissot as if it were SOOOO MUCH BETTER, for only "a bit more" money. The Quartz PRX is 50% more expensive than the Citizen and the Automatic PRX is more than double the price. Also, about the Tsuyota copying the Rolex, you placed them side by side and it is obvious the Citizen is not a shameless copy: the integrated bracelet with the narrow endlinks, the lack of a "Rolex-style" clasp (like Paganis and San Martins copy), the position of the crown and it being semi-hidden. On the other hand, if we're talking shamelessly ripping off a very famous and expensive watch, there's one mid-tier Swiss brand which sells 300-700EURO copies of the AP Royal Oak and calls them PRX (they even ripped-off the checkered dial and the colours of the AP dials)... Shall we dial down on the hypocrisy?

If I were to purchase I’d go the black actually as I’m really drawn to its flatness and how it makes the appearance of the dial look smaller which I think is better proportioned with the case. For similar money I’ll be buying the quartz PRX tho, and because I don’t have a PRX yet I’ll be doing that. A black one could entice me after that purchase however.

You can definitely still get great older Seiko 5s for around 100 - but still, old movement, no hacking no handwinding, super bad bracelets etc. But at the price they are good, and definitely reliable.

I have just received in tiffany blue. I bought it for the summer. My feel it is a very cheap made but does the job and I enjoy it a lot. You send 260eur insteag of 15000 or 21000 eur for Rolex depends if its 36 or 41. I don't care if it will or not scratch.

The Tissot PRX is really an amazing watch. It’s refined from an aesthetic point of view. The movement is solid and who can complain about 70 hours of power reserve. The moonswatch received the spotlight but as far as lower priced Swiss brands go how can you compete with the PRX. The Swatch group has another winner.

[@JMCL1207]

The Tsuyosa is better looking than the PRX in my opinion

[@fumeokid]

I love the cat test!! Never seen that before. Your the best! :)

i bought the yellow dial in Germany last November (2022) in a common "watch store". So i would think, the yellow dial version is available in Germany at least since the end of 2022.

Citizen being around a long time and has a solid quality name with it. They produce loads of watches of all types. The Tsuyosa is at the lower end of the Citizen brand and priced at $250. I don't think it looks like a Rollex at all. Edge friction wind is not practical, over time the winding is harder to rotate. The same in my Rado Diastar and I replaced the stem for a longer stem and use a crown winder. The band is not screws but are split pins that push out. Looks like a screw head. Hope you both had a good Christmas and New Years. Best wishes for 2023.

Tried on the black dial yesterday and it's a nice watch, even though the Tissot PRX has a better quality (but also higher price). Waiting for the yellow dial.

You don't use a screwdriver to take out links from the bracelet. They are pins that have a slit because its made of some kind of fold metal pin. These are push out pins, you can see the arrow markings on the bracelet. Superb watch by the way! I saw this watch once and 2 days later I bought it. So in love.

[@brinx8634]

On the bracelet links, what appears to be a screw head is in fact the end of a split pin (the actual split end) that must be pushed out from the other side. It is not a screw.

[@Carrandas]

Thanks for the review. Seeing it on your wrist, now I'm sure it's too big for me :) Tried a colleague's PRX 40mm, it just looked silly on my wrist.

[@BarnOwl61]

The yellow would have been my choice. It's gorgeous, by the way. Comparing Rolex and Tissot to this Citizen is not completely fair imo. You just can't compare a much, much, more expensive Rolex and a more expensive Tissot to this Citizen. I think it's a great offering

[@Karamsecond]

Nice review 😍 I’d like to know your thoughts about the fact that Tissot prx powermatic 80 cannot be served, the movement have no traditional regulator! I mean what’s the point in buying an automatic watch where you can’t do a proper service on the movement? The new Tissot movements are disposable!

[@longobardialfonso8376]

It is a watch that deserves to be seen up close, to be able to touch it. Great review Jenni 👍

[@christofferkarlsson1598]

Thank you for the video. I am not in the market for this. But I think it is a great idea that you talk more about the braclets in the lower pricepoint watches. Great video! =)

[@stephannordmann5346]

Great watch and the movement is very good, the only bad thing is if you try to wind it up. Very difficult 😔

[@davidopalecky7318]

Happy new year Jenni. Glad you’re back and feeling well!😊

[@antonellowailes]

i love you so much! I recently just found your mamacoo and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life

[@seezy1]

The bracelet is amazing in my opinion. The clasp kinda looks nice. It is pressed but in that price range okay. But the feel of it is just great. Very comfortable and i wear ot every day. I have some watches even some pricier. But this bracelet is pure love. I even sweat much less. Maybe because of the little space between. On the wrist you barely see the space

[@m2pozad]

Jenni is so entertaining that, like the cat test, if I pay attention to the actual watch information it means I like it. So here the answer is, No thanks. But... well done, Jenni!

[@alxRo]

I own 2 citizen eco drive divers 200m and 300m also omega seamaster and have collection of many vintage omega from myfather i like more citizen beautiful for men and rugged watches

[@TheBigWrist]

I bough the diver version (same movement, bracelet and push/pull crown w/100m) and I do like it as a $200 dive-style watch. But the bracelet and clasp are terrible, so I replaced the clasp with a good milled clasp and is it is a good looking watch, just not great.

[@broquitos]

It can be argued that Citizen is capitalizing the hype around the PRX, but saying that they are copying other brands shows a complete lack of knowledge about the brand. The tsuyosa design is very similar to Citizen models from the 70's and it also a very classic design which, inevitably, reminds of other timepieces. If the tsuyosa is a copy, so are 90% of the models released every year.
