The only watches i own are a few colours of the classic Casio F91Ws.

What are Citizen watches like? Always liked the name. Are they along the same lines as Seiko?

Citizen make good solid watches. And they don't cost the earth. They're along the same lines as Seiko etc who also make great solid watches.

Citizen Tsuyosa is a beautiful watch.

I have a Citizen Promaster Sky, it has ecodrive and is radio controlled. A great watch for the money and much more accurate than my Swiss watches.1000028886.jpg

This is probably my favourite watch I've got but more for sentimental reasons as it's my late brother's.
It's actually a Heuer watch based on the easy rider made by Heuer but sold in Sears department stores, found it in the loft when clearing it out to build a dorma it was in a terrible state and cost me more to have it refurbished than it's actually worth.

That's a lovely looking watch. Bit like the Hamilton Pan Europ. Done the same thing recently with my granddad's watch. Paid more to get it working than it's worth. However, definitely worth it.
 
Just got one of these recently , the Zero West DB1. Was looking at other watches but this stood out for me as it's a British company and I liked the Dambusters theme - got a bit of one of the Dambuster Lancaster's on my wrist.

I have had a basic Citizen for ten years plus, bought second hand, sapphire crystal titanium bracelet and 40mm case. Recently it developed the "double-second hand jitter". Showed it the watch specialist who diagnosed a worn out capacitor, £60 to supply and fit, and up to a month wait as they have to be ordered from Japan. Went on Amazon ordered it myself £30, and followed the tutorial on youtube. Untypically, i watched all of it, and sure enough it was not working, the capacitor has to be charged by sunlight or led, making sure you pull the winder to the adjust position. The capacitor is tiny, so needs tweezers to manipulate it. Working perfectly now, after a week on the window ledge. Many years ago i had (still got) a Breitling automatic which was great if you wear it everyday, which i was unable to do. My next watch will be a quartz, luminous numerals and hands, titanium case with maybe a Milanese bracelet and sapphire crystal.

Low percentage positive feedback. No recent UK sales. Not sure that swatch looks brand new/unworn. Not for me.
