WOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I LOVE THAT CITIZEN!!!!! ITS A GREAT WATCH!!!!!
I’m glad you like it mate 👍👍
Thanks for the shout out mate. Absolutely corker of a watch. Review definitely did it justice 👏👏👏👏👏👏
No problem mate - thanks for the heads up on this watch as well 👍👍
Nice watch Simon, yes shame about the packaging. In Japan they always get the canister and here in Turkey we often get it but not every time. Some places never get it or very rarely. Thanks for the great review as always! As for the plane, you should let the airport know when you're making a video, so they can divert the flight 😂
Good to hear it’s not just me and I may well contact Heathrow and let them know how inconsiderate they are being 😂
Have a great weekend my friend and thanks for stopping by 👍👍
$399.00 I GOT MINE ON AMAZON ABOUT 9 OR 10 MONTHS AGO....FOR $240.00 THATS CRAZY.....
WOW!! For that money, you’ve got a great, great watch - enjoy mate 👍👍
Sweet
These are really nice looking watches. I think it was a year or so ago Citizen did a re-issue of their Challenge Diver from the 70s. The Promaster Titanium NB6021was around 1000 US dollars give or take and was powered by a Miyota 9051. From what I understand, this model is a budget version of the that watch. They are very similar. There are some that come with more colorful gradient or fumé dials in green yellow and blue as well. Nice one Simon! 👍❤
That sounds like a very nice watch and I know the yellow one you’re talking about as I’m currently watching it on my eBay, great minds man. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend 👍👍
Citizen can't be beat for the money. Solid designs, finishing, and capable. Great review Simon!
I couldn’t of said it better myself bro - thanks for watching 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime you're welcome brother!
You were kind enough to share a discount code from H Samuel when you bought this watch, I got the uprated "Lefty" with the burgundy bezel on rubber strap at around half price too. Been a fan of the "Lefty" going way back and I'd be embarrassed to tell you how many iterations I own. Thanks for the review (and the code). Citizen is an amazing brand with many affordable options but a lot of decent luxury watches too. They tend to keep the best at home so explore the JDM models.
That I did mate, good memory and I’m pleased you benefitted form it, great stuff.
They definitely seem to keep their best stuff in Japan and produce some truly outstanding pieces over there 👍👍
Reminds me of the Orient Kamasu.
That’s a stunner. Poor Citizen. It’s like Pepsi to Seiko’s Coke. Liam Hemsworth to Chris Hemsworth. You get the idea. But some people love Pepsi. And if you just give it a try you may just end up preferring it? Thanks!
Good analogy that mate 😂
Thanks for watching mate and have a great weekend 👍👍
Yes I agree it's a looker mate. But the pucker list is too long for my liking. I think once they can address your pucker list it would be worth the money. Until then it's a polite pass on this one.
Fair enough mate but that’s just my opinion and as I’ve said many times over the years, you’re entitled to yours and watches as with many things, it’s very subjective. Thanks for watching anyway 👍👍
If it was a high beat yes. I have a lot of citizen JDMs. I'm going to get the high beat version of this. I prefer the look of this to sub homages. The clasp feels cheap to me. Thanks for the review.
I understand that mate and I’d prefer it with a 9k movement as well. That being said, I still think this is a cracking watch. Thanks for watching man 👍👍
What's the model number for the high beat?
Nice review . Citizen is THE working diver’s watch .. always has been, always will be . Nautilte is their name for the lume ;)
It most certainly is and not bad looking either. Thanks for watching man 👍👍
I just a week ago received my new Citizen’s NY0129-58L from Amazon for only $199 on a special invitation deal . Mine is the same watch but with blue gradient dial and blue bezel. I’m really loving it and it’s a fantastic watch . Just last month I bought a NY086 Fugu watch from a friend of mine that was used in brand new condition for only $60 . It’s the Pepsi Fugu with the same 8204 movement. Like you I’m definitely liking the brand much more and recognizing them for the great watch that they are . I have many Seiko divers in my collection and not sure if I’d say this watch is better than them but pretty darn close 👍🏻
I know the one as it’s one I’ve saved on my eBay and for the price you got it for, that is a great score, well man - enjoy 👍👍
@@WatchtheTime thank you my friend 👍🏻
Hi! Beautiful watch ❤
I’m glad you like it my friend 👍👍
This watch is really underrated and under appreciated. Very well designed piece but might be a bit too chunky and large for some.
I agree on all counts mate. A very nice and functional watch but as you say, a bit chunky 👍👍
Male end links an issue especially when it’s a long lug to lug not an issue if you go for the rubber strap.
I thought that range had a textured dial. The main reason I won’t get one is the thickness and no sapphire,
Fair enough mate, it’s not going to be for everyone and as a certified diver, it’s better having mineral crystal given it won’t shatter like sapphire. Thanks for your honest feedback and for watching 👍👍
Citizen have started to up their game recently with some decent new releases and reissues. I bought one of the new Orca's a couple of weeks back and have hardly taken it off. The bracelet is the same as this but properly brushed and the pin and collar didn't really bother me. I also think people get too hung up on sapphire these days. As you said, on a certified diver mineral is arguably the better choice. My Orca came from Italy via Amazon EU and I finally got a promaster in the yellow dive tank.
I agree and I’ve also seen your watch, very nice and a good choice also, fair play. As some point I’m sure I’ll get one arrive in the dive tank 👍👍
Super beautiful watch! Thx
I’m glad you like it my friend 👍👍
Can you recommend any bracelet for the same i own the non bracelet variant ny0121-09x
I can’t, sorry mate but please feel free to let me know if you find one 👍👍
This should have the miyota 90... movement
I can’t disagree with that at all as I love their 9k series of movements 👍👍
Is there an English version of this video?
Obviously not 👍👍
The re issue proves that previous design is mucg better on modern style
👍👍
I just find out in mine that the days are english and spanish. I thought it's english and kanji day only. I bought it from US.
Ah cool. Thanks for the info mate 👍👍
Never liked this style of handset ,never will otherwise a nice watch.
Fair enough. Thanks for watching anyway mate, I hope all is well 👍👍
No sapphire, no buy for me.
No problem mate. Thanks for watching anyway 👍👍
it is a certified diver's watch, sapphire is the worse choice for this because it shatters quickly if you accidentally knock it against something. Mineral glass scratches more easily but is less susceptible to breakage.
@@knutjunker2019but why high end diver watch like Rolex….etc using saphirre crytal ?
@@minhhang467 because the customers want sapphire and nearly noboby goes diving with a rolex, i guess :-)
@@knutjunker2019 lol i dont think so 😂
