What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Citizen Series 8 831

Owners widely praise the Citizen Series 8 831 for its finishing, with one owner noting it exceeded expectations. Reviewers highlight the textured Ice Blue dial and the bracelet's play of light, contributing to a comfortable and luxurious feel on the wrist. The watch features a 40mm ion-plated stainless steel case, a sapphire crystal, and 100 meters of water resistance. It is powered by the in-house Miyota Caliber 9051 automatic movement, which has a 42-hour power reserve and an accuracy range of -10 to +20 seconds per day. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Citizen Series 8 831 highly for its impressive finishing and dial design at its price point.

From video reviewers

The case finishing, with its contrasting brushed and polished surfaces, is a notable strength. The 40mm case size and comfortable fit are also consistently mentioned. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.

KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011

Owners widely praise the KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011 for its stunning dials, blued hands, and quality finishing, with many highlighting its great value and vintage-inspired aesthetic. The comfortable jubilee bracelet and excellent lume are frequently mentioned positives. One owner notes the watch is "pretty thick in regards to height," and another points out minor criticism regarding the handset finish and crown edges, with indices and handset sharing a similar color that can obscure visibility. The KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011 utilizes a Miyota 9039 movement, with reported accuracy ranging from -10 to +30 seconds per day. Overall, owners rate the KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011 highly for its attractive design and value proposition.

From video reviewers

The KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011's vintage-inspired dial and hands are a strong point, with reviewers noting their aesthetic appeal. The watch's design is also praised for its uniqueness, with one reviewer calling it "design perfection." However, the relatively short 40-hour power reserve of the MIYOTA Cal.9039 automatic movement is a notable weakness.
