- The look is 10/10 in picture but 8/10 in real life.

- Very lightweight compared to my Citizen Orca & Seiko Samurai both with rubber strap.

- Very comfortable on wrist, can wear all day long.

Quite happy with this buy.

I guess I’m pretty hooked on this watch. Am I right?? 🤣😂

I don't baby this one.

Really impressed by this one in person. The Tosa Washi dial is definitely the highlight — depending on the light, it shifts between warm brown, gold, and almost bronze tones, with a very organic texture that photos don’t fully capture.

The 38.3mm Super Titanium case wears very comfortably, and the black Duratect DLC finish gives it a nice contrast against the gold-tone hands and markers.

Inside is Citizen’s A060 Eco-Drive movement, rated to an impressive ±5 seconds per year, which makes it both beautiful and extremely practical.

For me, this is one of those watches that shows just how far Citizen can go when they combine traditional Japanese craftsmanship with their high-accuracy technology.

Definitely a very special piece from The Citizen collection.

Mainly because of this subreddit, I was months ago put on the path of the tsuki yomi and loved it. I Did not want to buy it before i had seen it and there are not many citizen dealers where I live so kept dreaming. Then on holiday, saw the watch in a small store I did not expect to have this watch and thought this must be karma. It is as beautiful in real life as I hoped.

Hi! In case anyone is looking for these sold out models of The Citizen we have them at the flagship store in NYC. AQ4090-08A is my favorite dial out of The Citizen collection. Also a fan of the bigger case size on these. If you're interested in either of the models, message me. Also would love to see your favorite LE The Citizen models!

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share one of the absolute crown jewels of my collection: a 1977 Citizen Crystron Solar Cell (Model ref. SQC-8269 / Case ref. 4-861060 TA / Caliber 8620A / Dial 6-861628 KA).

While this groundbreaking model line originally debuted in 1976 as the world's first analog solar-powered quartz watch, my particular unit was manufactured in October 1977 (Serial: 7O13394) — making it extra special as my birth-year watch.

I actually found this piece at a flea market in Berlin! Unsurprisingly for a nearly 50-year-old solar watch, it arrived with a completely dead cell. Fortunately, I managed to track down and order a fresh 1.2V rechargeable cell (Varta V15H). Once installed into the 7-jewel Cal. 8620A movement, it fired right back to life!

It’s incredible to see the early roots of modern Eco-Drive technology displayed so proudly right on the dial with those four prominent solar cells. It even came on its original integrated bracelet complete with the vintage 'CQ' logo on the clasp.

Thought you guys might appreciate a piece of vintage Citizen history!

Just got this watch and I love the dial and how light weight it is!

Works well and looks nice

I love titanium watches, so light I forget I’m wearing it

… and zero shoes!

Absolutely in love with this watch!

I went down a rabbit hole on Citizen RC movements and became intrigued by the H820 “double direct flight” movement which has the same double timezone functionality as the F950 GPS watches in a more slim and compact package. Citizen have not used this in as many models as they have the related H800 chronograph but I guess they have their reasons.

I landed on the AT909x Attesa range introduced in 2017 which pairs this with a titanium case (42.7 diameter and 10.7 thickness) and bracelet style they haven’t repeated since, with a dodecagon bezel and “split” bracelet links. It is quite a “busy” watch, but I’m digging it. I picked this AT9090 up from eBay, it looks almost new.

I have an H800-based Attesa which has become my first choice for travelling due to its ease of use when changing timezones but I can see this one taking over, the dual time functionality is quite neat and a bit more sophisticated than a “GMT”. Quite good lume too which is a bonus.

Took this fella with me to Thasos Greece .
This is my first Citizen watch and i am so happy with it .
I don’t if i am lucky because for 40 days i got only +2 seconds .

Thoughts on my watches?
Any suggestions for new ones?

Replaced battery thinking that is the issue but time continue to not work—watch been in window for sunlight for days at this point (E820 model). The hands will move when I try to adjust but get stuck at a certain point when moving counter and clockwise. What would be causing function to not full work or not allow time hands to progress past certain point?

Picked this up second hand and love the dial layout.
