Citizen Owner Review : Sublime, beautiful and endearing

Simply fantastic

Okay, so, it's a long story. When I was a kid (a long time ago), my very first watch was a Citizen. I don't know why, but I still remember it. I had never bought one since, I even wondered if the brand still existed. Afterwards, I saw really low-end models which didn't encourage me. I had given Seikos to my children when they were young, then I bought myself a Grande Seiko. Until the day I discovered the The Citizen Toya Washi. I fell for it, but I gave it to my son for his graduation. So, I still bought myself the NB1060, JDM model. And then, I was totally blown away. This watch is a pure marvel. A very classic Japanese timeless design. The dial worthy of a Grande Seiko, and above all, it's silly but for me it's important, it's ultra precise. It hardly moves, it looks like a Spring Drive. In addition, it is waterproof to 100m, so, with a nylon strap, no problem for the swimming pool this summer. Depending on the light, the dial changes color all the time, it's really amazing. The problem is that we look at our watch all the time, which can be rude in company, we can say "no, I'm not looking at the time, I'm looking at my watch"
