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 8 880

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Citizen Series 8 880 GMT's killer case, bracelet, and textured dial, with some noting its muscular, angular design and compelling two-tone ion plating. The true GMT movement is considered technically solid, and the watch offers 100m water resistance. However, some find the Citizen Series 8 880 GMT a tad bulky or chunky, and its stated accuracy of -10/+20 seconds per day is a broad bandwidth. A reviewer flagged a simplistic typeface on the bezel's 24-hour scale and a mismatched white date wheel, while the pin-and-collar bracelet system and lack of micro-adjustment were noted as tedious. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Citizen Series 8 880 GMT highly for its robust travel watch features and striking design elements.
