Thanks for dropping by. I’m loving this watch so far. In fact, loving it more each day. It’s so understated and yet so cool with all the features I mentioned. But it’s not perfect. Stay tuned for the following Part Two and Three videos.
Same as me man! . Been searching for my grail watch , looking grand Seiko , Tudor , Rolex etc ... Just KEEP coming back to the citizen chronomaster especially the aq4100 Blue dial.. wish it was easier to purchase .. paying $4000 AUD online I'm not fond of .
Thanks for taking the time to review this watch! I've become more and more interested in it. Have you tried it on many straps? I know it's 19mm but from my understanding you can fit a 20mm in it
Most welcome! Actually I haven’t tried any straps on this one because I feel it looks and wears great on the stock bracelet. I just want to leave it as is and enjoy the ultra-lightweight.
Hi, Andy! Did you tried also the 40mm model, the one with lume, also? If yes what make you to decide to buy this one instead the 40mm? It was too big for your wrist? I am asking because I have same wrist size like you.
Hey man, thanks for dropping by. For me it was straightforward decision. For watches of this style, definitely keep to under 40mm. Because it’s bezel-less, it will look too big if 40mm and above.
@@AndyinSG I see, up 40's is divers territory 😁! I watch your videos for over 3 years now. This Washi paper dial, Zaratsu polishing and high tech movement behind is making a very attractive watch. Although it is a "for connoisseurs" type of watch. 😉
@@radu_serban thanks man. Really appreciate the support here. Yes, the AQ4020 Washi dial has been on my radar for a while ever since I saw it on Peter Deplyant’s website review. And I’m happy so far with the purchase. You might want to have a look at the AQ4080 which I recently unboxed. Same movement, but slightly different design cues. Of course not titanium too. Still a cool watch.
It's no rip off. Citizen have been using this style since the 70s. And the movement is an evolution of a much older quartz movement. All of this was before Seiko brought out the Grand Seiko line. See link below for an earlier Citizen - looks remarkably like the watch in this video. ua-cam.com/video/RTdRXnjBa9o/v-deo.html

I just wanted to say that this is hands down my favorite quartz watch and one of my favorite watches period.
Same here. Wear yours in good health!
Accuracy reigns supreme!
This piece has been on my list for so long and the more I see reviews the more I’m sold on it. Thanks for the review

Is this a rebadged chronomaster?
No. It IS the Chronomaster.
Tis is a great watch - adjustable hour hand, perpetual calendar, Eco-drive, power reserve. Tis one does it all.
Yes Tony, this watch rocks!
I wouldn't pay more than $500 for a non-quartz
3k quartz? bruh whats going on
I'm confused! Did Citizen just ripped off Grand Seiko?
Nothing to be confused about. This design is pretty generic. From Seiko5 to GS to Rolex, they look the same from 2m away.
@Andy in SG this design is not generic at all. From the case design to the bracelet to using Titanium, this is totally Grand Seikoish.
