What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Citizen Tsuyosa Automatic

The Citizen Tsuyosa Automatic is widely praised for its exceptional value, with reviewers and owners alike highlighting its Japanese construction quality and impressive fit and finish for the price. Enthusiasts appreciate its versatile design and fun dial colors, while reviewers note its retro feel and emulation of vintage dress watches. The watch is powered by Citizen's caliber 8322 movement, offering a 60-hour power reserve. Criticisms include a cyclops date magnifier that some find undesirable, a bracelet that can be noisy and lacks significant tapering, and a 40mm case that wears large due to its thickness and broad lugs. One owner also found the 4 o'clock crown fiddly for winding. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Citizen Tsuyosa Automatic highly for its incredible bargain price and well-executed design.

Sternglas Marus 2.0

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Marus 2.0 for its well-built, heavy case and excellent bezel action, which is considered superior to some competitors. Reviewers note the refined case and luminous dial markers, while the green dial stands out from other divers. The Seiko NH35A movement offers accuracy ranging from -20/+40 seconds per day. One reviewer desired a slightly larger screw-down crown. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Marus 2.0 highly for its robust build and standout dial at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Seiko NH35 automatic movement is a shared strength. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
