Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Citizen Series 8 890 is praised for its robust build, 200 meters of water resistance without a screw-down crown, and excellent case finishing for its price. Reviewers note the smooth action of its internal bezel, though one suggests the knurling could be more pronounced for better grip. It utilizes the caliber 9051 automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve, which often performs better than Citizen's stated -10/+20 seconds per day. The watch's design is noted as borrowing from popular luxury sports watches, and its lug-to-lug measurement can make it wear large. Overall, reviewers find the Citizen Series 8 890 a compelling and robust sports watch, particularly for its finishing and water resistance capabilities.
Advanced finishing techniques on the 42.6mm octagonal silver-tone stainless steel case showcase durability and elegance. The watch's textured blue dial may not appeal to everyone's taste. Reviewers disagree on whether the Citizen Series 8 890's movement (Caliber 9051) is a strong point due to differing comparisons (Grand Seiko vs. AP Royal Oak).
Owners widely praise the Venezianico Nereide Tungsteno 39 for its attractive aesthetics, particularly the iridescent tungsten bezel and mother-of-pearl dial, and its thin profile. The Miyota 9039 movement is noted for keeping good time and contributing to the watch's slimness. Some owners report a stiff bezel that loosens with wear and desire brighter lume. Criticisms consistently focus on the bracelet, citing split pins, a lack of micro-adjustments and quick-release spring bars, and a need for smoothing. Overall, owners rate the Venezianico Nereide Tungsteno 39 highly for its unique design and value, despite noted bracelet shortcomings.
