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.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
