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 8 890

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.

From video reviewers

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).

Islander x The Urban Gentry "Rangemaster II GMT" Limited Edition Watch #ISL-267

Owners widely praise the Islander x The Urban Gentry "Rangemaster II GMT" Limited Edition Watch #ISL-267 for its good fit and finish, unique design, and comfortable wearability, with many noting its integrated bracelet and case dimensions make it wear smaller than its specs suggest. Some owners find the dial cluttered and unbalanced, with specific criticism directed at the date window placement and the hour hand, while others appreciate the case's skeletonized lugs and the overall bold, retro-futuristic aesthetic. Accuracy figures range from +3.6s/day to more variable performance, and the crown is frequently described as slightly hard to manipulate due to its guards. On balance, owners value the Islander x The Urban Gentry "Rangemaster II GMT" Limited Edition Watch #ISL-267 for its originality and finishing at its price point, despite some polarizing design elements.
