The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

I love the textured blue dial, and its contained weight thanks to the use of Titanium. Small seconds with sunburst finish that contrasts with the rest of the dial, and date at 3 o'clock (must have in my opinion), complete the range of this automatic watch for less than €500. I didn't have a chic sports watch in my collection, I found my happiness with this piece.

Citizen was founded in 1918 in Japan by Kamekichi Yakamazi of the Shokosha Watch Research Institute in Tokyo. Now one of the world's largest watch companies, recognized for its innovative watches and cutting-edge technology. The history of Citizen begins with the launch of its first pocket watch in 1924, called the "CITIZEN".
<h2 dir="ltr">History of the Citizen brand</h2>
This watch was equipped with a high-quality mechanical movement and was highly valued for its precision and reliability. It quickly gained popularity, establishing the foundation of Citizen's reputation in watchmaking.
Over the following years, Citizen continued to innovate and push the boundaries of watchmaking technology. In 1956, the company introduced the world's first pocket wristwatch, which revolutionized the way watches were worn. This innovation paved the way for a new era of more practical and functional watches. In the 1960s, Citizen released several revolutionary watches, including the Citizen Parawater, Japan's first waterproof watch, and the Citizen Cosmotron, the country's first solar-powered electronic watch. These technological advances have solidified Citizen's position as a pioneer in the watch industry.
Citizen has also played a key role in the quartz watch industry. In 1973, the company introduced the Citizen Crystron Solar Cell, the first quartz watch powered by solar energy. This innovation paved the way for a new generation of more precise and durable quartz watches with the 1976 launch of the technology<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/citizen/eco-drive"> Citizen Eco-Drive</a>.
Over the decades, Citizen has continued to introduce new features and technologies into its watches. In 1993, the company launched the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/citizen/promaster_aqualand"> Citizen Promaster Aqualand</a>, a diver's watch that has pushed the boundaries of underwater performance. It was equipped with features such as measuring depth and diving time, which allowed divers to explore the seabed safely.
In the 2000s, Citizen began developing ecological watches. In 2008, the company introduced the Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite Wave, the first solar-powered watch capable of receiving satellite signals for optimal accuracy around the world. This revolutionary technology eliminated the need to change batteries, providing a more durable and convenient solution for watch enthusiasts. Over the past few years, Citizen has maintained its leading position in the watch industry. The company continues to innovate in design, technology and sustainability, while maintaining its commitment to quality and precision.

Zenshin means "moving forward" and facing adversity while remaining calm. 

This is a strong and symbolic word to describe this watch. Light and robust thanks to its titanium case and bracelet, it is forgotten on the wrist. Its movement, a Miyota 8213, nevertheless accomplishes its task very well. 

Larger than its Swiss cousin, the PRX, its dimensions are 44 mm in diameter and 12.1 mm thick, compared to 40 mm and 10.93 mm for the PRX. 

Its dial appears smaller thanks to a small hack. The framing of the indexes by the black seconds band gives us the impression of a smaller dial. 

I chose this green shade because it reminds me of a lake. It is a really pleasant and soothing color that sparkles in the sun. 

A watch that is worth it in terms of quality for the price and which exudes a lot of charm.

Pretty and simple.

Not having a titanium watch in my collection, I set my sights on this new Citizen. The advantage, a great lightness, 90 grams! Grade 5 titanium, octagonal case, nicely textured green dial.... Small downside for the basic movement but it does the job well. 
I am won over, Citizen knows how to do as well as Seiko. The quality-price ratio is excellent. 
A pretty Citizen on my wrist.
