    I like how this channel features watches that few other channels cover. This citizen , Seiko szsb and the Archimede klassik are watches I couldn't find decent reviews for. Average bros had them within weeks of each other. You've got a new subscriber👌

      True. Other channels are featuring watches that are already "expected" to be reviewed. In a way, if everybody is doing it, popular views will be raking in. But I like it that I can find amazing finds here that I wouldnt necessarily have known if it wasnt for this channel. This piece for instance

    I love when Citizen releases a beautiful all around watch with solid finishing, beauty dial, that 9 series that’s slightly decorated. Well done especially at 38mm. I may just have to grab the blue or black model. I just grabbed a Seiko Spb165 white hemp dial and it’s a stunner for sure but just to round it out. Big fan of Citizen and what they do.
    Thanks for review !

      - Case design and finish (from my point of view of course) goes to old SARB033/035
      - Better bracelet goes to Citizen
      - Better movement goes to Citizen
      - Clasp is crappy on both SARB series and this Citizen
      - Dial is about the same, simple, but I think I prefer the SARB dial more
      Overall, if you can't find a SARB at a decent price, this Citizen is really a no brainer :).

The bezel on the Citizen is 38mm whereas the bezel on the Sarb is 36 mm so it wears a hair bigger than the Sarb (dial-wise). I think the Sarb wears small for a 38 mm because if this. The lugs turn down nicely. Not quite as much as the Sarb, but then, the Sarb’s lugs turn down more than any other watch in my collection. If you like the Sarb, you will LOVE the citizen.

The polishing on the inner side of the bezel is beautiful, not sure I've seen that before. Also really appreciate the "low light transition" segment, super helpful for determining how useful the lume is. It's pretty rare that I'm in a fully dark room so that was great!

    I am a big fan of Citizen, I have 2 automatics and one Eco-Drive and I love the simplicity and quality of their designs. This watch knocks it out of the park in that respect. It looks amazing, and the 9011 movement is a huge improvement over most other Japanese watches in this price range. I would put this one against the Tissot Gentelman, which is surprisingly similar in many respects. I think they go toe to toe in terms of design and quality.

    That looks better than the Sarb035. And its slightly bigger and would fit better on my wrist @ 7.5. Though I prefer the Sarb ivory/off-white colour more.
    The Sarb case tends to pop above the bracelet on large wrists, so it doesn't quite sit right, also I much prefer male first centrelink, it just wraps around the larger wrists better.

    Is it true that we don't have to pay customs in the US if the watch is under $800? I've been thinking about ordering one of these, but I don't want to get hit with extra charges if at all possible. Thanks in advance, and great review as always!

    If Seiko made this watch , speced like this it would be 2x or 3x today.

    Great review.I enjoy your channel very much.
    Stunning watch from Citizen.Finally something in smaller size. My one is on the way from Japan.
    Do you know if AR coating is applied to underside of sapphire or to both sides?
    Best Regards.

    Well, you call that wearing loose? Don't want to know what wearing tight looks like! Nice watch!

      It's so loose, I have to wear it higher on the wrist to have it not sliding around. If it wore it lower, there would be extra slack, make sense?

    How far across is the watch from protruding endlink to endlink?

    Me gusta pero en España no veo que se venda. Tampoco en el resto de la UE, por lo que acabaría pasando por aduanas , con un importante incremento en el precio

    Hey Mark, ever considered to review a JDM high-end The Citizen AQ4080-52A HAQ watch? Just bought one from Japan and the specs are just amazing value for money. Better than GS quartz, if you ask me (+/-5 sec/year deviation, eco-drive solar, perpetual calendar, temperature correction, sallaz=zaratsu polishing, etc.) . I am an automatic watch collector normally, but this is a game changer of precision and quality. Check them out!

    • @AverageBros

      Yeah, I've considered it. I just haven't found a model that resonated with me enough to purchase yet.

    • @CarlosDiaz-gk7nk

      AQ4080-52A if you consider a 37mm sporty-dresser in amazing finish and precision on par (or better?) than GS

    Imagine this with a Tiffany blue or candy pink dial! Love the case, dial is great but the bracelet seems to be the biggest disappointment with 19mm lugs, male end links, minimal taper, no half links and 2 micros on the clasp. It’s a winner but could be better. Thanks for the great review!
