Citizen is a brand that needs little introduction. They have been around for almost a century, they are one of the largest
watch brands currently in
business, they are available at almost every major department store and certainly most
mainstream watch stores and they are considered to be very well made. Yet, despite their reach and popularity, we haven’t reviewed or featured a single citizen watch on
worn&wound yet. Well…that’s sort of a lie, because every time we discuss a
watch that is powered by a Miyota movement, whether it is a Maratac pilotor a Lüm-Tec Combat B16, we are in fact indirectly talking about Citizen as they own Miyota, but we have not directly discussed a Citizen branded watch. This is for a simple albeit subjective reason, most of them just don’t interest us. Style isn’t exactly
Citizen’s strong suit (I hope I don’t make too many enemies by saying that) and for the price there are generally sexier options out there. Of course, there is an exception to every rule and in the case of
Citizen the exception is the
Nighthawk
