Citizen is one of those watch brands that doesn't get enough attention. They do provide great value for the money, but I think they get overshadowed by Seiko. Thank you Teddy for focusing on this Citizen model with the beautiful yellow dial.

looks like Citizen is trying to get the PRX dollars.

love that this man gives such honest reviews despite the watch being for sale on his own website

Very first watch was a Citizen my father gave me when I was 8, I'm 33 and it's STILL in my collection running great

I didn't realize how new this watch is/was! I got it Mid August, I couldn't resist that yellow dial! It looks more like a butterscotch candy in the sunlight. The bracelet is probably the most comfortable I've ever worn. The links are so small, plus with the micro adjust, it fits perfectly. Mine definitely runs fast and setting the date is an absolute pain! But, I really like the crown being recessed into the watch, just feels so comfortable on the wrist! This is an absolute favorite for a bright and sunny day, which is almost all year around here! This is my Sam Adams watch....always a good decision!

Thank you Teddy. It is great to see affordability, quality and good looks in one package. Thank you for bringing it to us. Happy New Year!

Have this watch for a momth and i absolutely love it….citizen is killing it last few months!!! Bunch of cool new stuff

Had these on my radar for some time. Definitely will find it's way into my watch box soon

Teddy you are and always will be my favourite! Always there to help us have a better undestainding of the complicated world of orology. Just bought two yellow ones. To me its really a no brainer even for 350/400 bucks since it is really hard to find here in Europe as well. Wanna keep one in the closet and see what happens when it will be discontinued years from now... ( maybe another Seiko alpinist Sarb017 story !?) In Italy this one was sold out already two months ago, now Citizen is distributing those again, problem is that the shops must order all the references available for this market (4 - Green, Blue, Black, Yellow) and while the yellow ones are sold out before they even arrive at the shops (believe it or not there are people in the waiting lists to get one), all the other references are harder to sell and therefore shops here just order 2/3 pieces each four months.People that know I have two are already chasing me up with offers to get one believe it or not.

Thanks Teddy for your review, I am a watch enthusiast, but I am mostly motivated by the aesthetics, and the spectrum of colours of these watches seem really appealing.

I’ve had this watch on my radar for a bit, excellent video!

Thanks for this short review. I was about to buy PRX... but, I bought the CITIZEN just 2 hours ago the green dial... I like it very much... of course there're PROS and CONS but for Euro 255 you can't ask more.

I won this watch, and had so many complements. The one I have has the green dial. I really like the style, the size and it’s wearability. Good bang for the money. Of course it has its short comes like the clasp and the inconstant design language with the rounded bracelet and the edged case. But all been said I really like it. It’s a lot better on my wrist than the PRX as it has 45 mm lug to lug. Thanks Ted for the review.

I bought this watch when i was on vacation in Philippines. Been wearing it for a month now and i love it so far 😊

This was on the table when deciding what my everyday auto should be...I went for a Tisell Explorer 36. Better movement, better wearing dimensions, standard lugs, DAMN GOOD BRACELET and overall that proven Rolex design...

This has been on my list since it came out. Gorgeous watch

Just bought this watch an hour before this video!! Stunner to see. The clasp is very slim and i like that and it fits the watch. Yes i like this watch very much!! Greetings from Holland

Thinking that yellow dial is great! Definitely different and stands out. A conversation piece at a party.

So glad your making a video on this one. In one of my watch groups on FB this yellow dial has been popping up in everyone’s collection it seems

This is a great automatic from a reputable brand. I’d hold off until it came down a little in price first but even at $300, this is pretty good.

Teddy I absolutely love your website, and although I have yet to purchase a watch from your store I do indeed plan on getting one soon! I like how your budget friendly section showcases the best watches for the price.

I have an old Citizen 21 from 1972. Looks the same, but with day date. Has the same crown position and requires a crown winding tool even though it is an automatic. Keeps excellent time +4 secs a day. Bracelet gave out long ago, so using a croc skin leather.

This is somewhat like the Seiko Recraft series of automatics in my mind, just for a different style of watch. They make for a great introduction to automatic watches as they are simple and still good looking, while also lacking some features that might otherwise go unnoticed on more expensive offerings if you jumped straight to them instead. I got a SNKM97 on sale for just over $120 not too long ago, and it's taught me a lot about owning an automatic. Previously I've only owned quartz movements so it definitely takes some adjustment, but seeing the movement work and hearing it tick when you hold it to your ear is definitely rewarding. I now know just how much I'd like a hackable movement though!

Gonna be honest Teddy, I only watch your great channel a few times a year but binge watch everything in a few days.

bought this 3 months ago i love it works perfect as a everyday watch

Teddy, I have purchased the yellow and turquoise colours really nice watch and very comfortable to wear, no issues with the bracelet whatsoever. Thank you for the review.

Superb video. Great watch at the price point. Can see the stark inspiration of bigger brands. The crown is probably the most quirky thing about it.

I really like the look of this watch. Great summer watch for us in the southern hemisphere right now

Big appreciation to you channel sir🙏, big help for the watch industry.

Merry Christmas Teddy: I think this is a fun watch and though I haven't seen the other colors it comes in, I like this yellow. I think it would make a fun summer watch and a nice addition to any collection. Have a happy new year.

I like Citizen and have 2 now and really enjoy wearing them, don't feel guilty as they are affordable, but wasn't sure on this one and needed Teddy's seal of approval. I'm more than happy to get it now. Plus the black one is going for £170, so what am I waiting for! Great video as usual.

I wish that they'd make an ecodrive version of the watch. It'd be a fantastic grab and go and be a true contender to the Quartz PRX.

I bought this watch and it’s an incredible watch . It’s very classy upscale watch . I ❤ it .

Thanks for the review! Just got the yellow version in Singapore and it looks & feels fantastic.

I just bought this today, it’s way better in person, that dial is beautiful.👌

Hey nice video, just bought one with a green dial after watching this, a beautiful classy watch. Citizen does not miss.

FWIW: Due to delivery bottlenecks, Citizen has partially installed the (superior) 8215 movement without advertising it much. In particular, watches produced in late 22 and early 23 indeed DO have hacking.

Decided to go with the white quartz Tissot PRX (the only quartz in my collection), and the Citizen Tsuyosa Tiffany blue NJ0151-88M (was after the yellow one since the start, however when I saw the Tiffany blue ....) . Love them both. Great video as always Teddy.

These are easily available at authorised dealers here in Austria. The yellow really does stand out. I actually prefer the stamped clasp as it is thinner, more comfortable and does not stick out like the more bulky clasps are. Thin does not mean lack of quality. I have fifty year old watches with thin light bracelets and they still function perfectly

Mine just arrived today! Great recommendation Teddy!❤

I have one in the black dial. I love it as a daily driver. +7 to +12 per day, mitigated when leaving crown up at night. The clasp is pretty bad but the bracelet looks great and looks a lot more expensive than it really it is.

Just bought the Yellow. The yellow face is metallic and the bracellet is smooth. I bought it because my fave color is yellow. This watch looks way better in hand and people stare at my wrist alot 😁👍🏾

Cool watch. I like how the color shifts according to the light.

Copped the black dial. Clean looking watch. It’s my daily rite now.

Looks great! I don’t normally like a bright colored dial but this is sweet!

Thank you for profiling this watch, Teddy. I believe that if and when Citizen brings them to the U.S. market they will sell well.

The yellow is so cool and happy. So much cooler than the moon swatch!

Great review Teddy. Not a fan of the yellow dial color but considering what you are getting for $300, the Tsuyosa is a great value.

Ive been periodically visiting the citizen website just to look at this watch and make sure I still like it. The yellow dial is nothing short of stunning and it’s certainly on my pick up list.

I bought this exact watch. It is a masterpiece. It is beautiful to look at, the color of the dial as well as the angles and the finish are top rate. The only complaint is the clasp, it works well but for a few more dollars I would like to see a superior clasp.

Ugh would love a 38 or 36mm version of this. Love the presidential bracelet and simple dial

I also got the yellow one and I absolutely love it

I purchased this one for my B day, it's out for delivery today. I'm so excited to add to my watch collection.

This channel and wrist watch revival got me diving head first into the watch hobby...😂. Before I never batted an eye when it came to watches but now I cant help myself from looking at people's wrist when I pass them by to see if I recognize any watches.. help meee

I've just bought 2 of the prx blue and green dial they are absolutely beautiful watches I recommend any1 to pick up 1 of these, they look great on the wrist

First of all, NJ0151 is out. New color. I own this in the white face (ordered from Singapore for $300) and the Tissot prx powermatic 80. Love them both. But this one catches more attention because even my American watch nerds don’t know about it. Truly a unique watch for the price point. They should have released these stateside in response to the PRX release.

Good review. Thanks

I just received my Citizen Tsuyosa in the same color. Was surprised to see that it does indeed hack. I googled it and apparently newer Miyota 82 series have this feature. 👍

With the recent Seiko QC issues, i'd choose Citizen any day over Seiko. the design, spec and price is just perfection. this model definitely needs to be released for international market rather than just some Asian market.

Coming from Teddy I can see why people will give in to not finding it as a good watch. But, coming from me, who has worn it almost everyday, it is very comfortable. For whatever they’re selling now, I do recommend. I bought this exact dialed model for $315. Definitely worth it. It is made well. It has weight to it. The build is robust. The presidential bracelet is definitely comfortable, and the case itself sits comfortably on your wrist. My Citizen watch collection is now up to 6 watches, but when I only had 2 watches, the Tsuyosa and the black stiletto, I did wear the Tsuyosa everyday for maybe 2 months. It’s one of those watches that just stands out. Truly have gotten so money compliments on it, since that yellow dial stands out a lot! I respect Teddys opinion on this watch, but truly you’re getting waaaay more watch than its worth in my opinion. I haven’t seen what they’re going for now as of mid-January, but even if its $350-$400, In my opinion its way worth it. It has a Sapphire crystal, mineral glass back crystal, stainless steel case, bezel, bracelet. So this watch will definitely hold up. Obviously depends how the wearer treats it. If you’re looking into getting the Tsuyosa… get it. If you can get your hands on the yellow dial, you will not regret it once you see it in person. Once you have it sized and adjusted, you wont want to take it off.

Absolutely love my new yellow tsuyosa, fits me great as a smaller wristed guy

thanks for the interesting content! keep it coming!

I bought this watch about 4months ago. Lovely watch Lovely dial. Can't complain

Have been tracking this for a couple of months and finally got the white dial model NJ0150-81A. Your comparison with Rolex is spot on, that was what caught my attention with this timepiece. I'd have loved even more a stainless movement with a skeletonized winder, 10 BAR WR, and the crown at 3 o'clock

Worn it for a while, a nice, fresh summer watch.

For $300 it’s a great deal for a Summer-time watch👍

I just ordered mine in Yellow a couple of days ago. Interestingly enough, it seems that there are versions with and without hacking around.

Haven’t tried either one yet but it looks like Citizen is going to make a significant dent in the PRX market. Especially once it is released to the North American market.😊I think this is the first yellow dial watch I’m seriously considering picking up.❤

i have an incoming in green. pretty much stoked about it

Thank you for the review Teddy beautiful watch a nice comparison to the Automatic PRX. I recently purchased the Casio Edifice EFB-108D-7AV after watching a review comparing it to the PRX quartz. When you have an opportunity have a look. Thanks again

Solid simplicity. I like it.

I love the watch, just got one today.

have this watch, with the green dial really like it! and it does have hacking by the way on mine anyway. solid build and would definitely consider citizen again but looking for a swiss watch next!

That dial is amazing.

I recently bought the one with yellow dial and I was pleasantly surprised that it has hacking. I found out that the ones that were produced earlier in fact did not have hacking, but the newest one does.

Another great video! Appreciate your work, man. Quick question. In your opinion would you go with this watch over the Seiko SRPG27 or Seiko SPE57? Similar price range ish.

It's gorgeous and great value.

Thanks Teddy ♥️🇬🇧been hill for the last few weeks been watching your channel keeping my mind normal love watches thanks 👍

I've replaced the clasp with a solid one. It feels much better now.

They've been available in Europe for several months now. Sold (out) pretty fast everywhere. Nearly no stock atm. And there are only four colors (green, yellow, black and blue) here. I think the American market is pretty comparable. It will sell there very well as well. Btw. From Asia you can get an ice blue one. I have it and love it. You can also get a two tone, a camouflage, a fumé blue and a red dial in gold case and bracelet.

Thank you for this review. Any chance that you can do a video on the rest of the range?

Hi Teddy, I found one at 309 !!!! on ebay love it, thanks for the suggestion !

I got the ice/tiffany blue color. It’s so lovely. I like it more than my dark green prx powermatic80

I own the blue one. Another one best buy from Citizen

I tried the yellow one, it's a really nice watch. It looks great.

Interesting Teddy, though I'd have weighed a different Citizen to the PRX. Namely the NB6010-81L Serie 8. Both mechanical, angular bracelets though the series 8 case is using an angular design language... similar prices (mechanical PRX). Both very modern, with elements of 70s retro. Both divisive too (love em or hate em). Its all good!!

I have this exact watch ony wrist right now. It is a clean accurate watch

It looks nice and easy to replace the clasp, so that's not a worry for me.

‘Tis a sunny boi, this one here

In europe they are also available bought the black dial and for the price point its a good watch the clasp is indeed the only thing that feels cheap but the rest of the watch is nice

Coincidentally I’ve been researching this particular model with great interest. From the moment I saw the case design it immediately caught my attention. The dial colour(s) and indices were reminiscent of the Rolex OP however with an integrated bracelet design. The Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 initially had the same effect on me when I first saw it. However it wasn’t until I gifted one for my father, I discovered it wasn’t what I was expecting given all the hype behind it-for me that is. Without a doubt it’s a nice watch-for my father, but at the end of the day it ultimately comes down to how it honestly makes you feel when placing it on the wrist, irrespective of anyones opinion about it. Which is a real shame with the Citizen as it’s only available in certain markets. Unless I can get to those regions unfortunately I’m unable to make a unanimous decision of whether I truly like/love the timepiece to purchase it. Overall a great review, very informative as per usual. Keep up the great work! PS my brothers nickname is Teddy also.

From other videos I've seen it does have hacking, only con for me is the 50m water resistance, I'm going to be picking one for sure

Talking about yellow watches - the RZE Valour Chronograph looks amazing for the price. 🍒🍒

bought it for 220usd, am loving the watch!

Hey Teddy, this has had its movement updated. It now includes hacking and hand winding. If you buy the watch now it'll have the updated movement instead of the previous version when it was exclusive to Asia.

My wife bought me a Citizen Calendrier for my birthday. It is an amazing watch.

Fantastic looking watch - Oyster Perpetual vibes - pity about the small crown at 4 o’clock - with a larger crown at 3 o’clock they’d have slayed it

The sky blue dial 😮is stunning and pops on the wrist..! Well done 👍

Quartz Eco-Drive would be pretty cool. Maybe a deep green color or some other earth tones. 35-38mm would be cool too.

Just had a closeup look at one of these in a local store to me ...very nice.
