What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Citizen The Citizen Caliber A060

The Citizen Caliber A060 is widely praised for its exceptional accuracy, with most owners reporting it runs within or very close to the advertised ±5 seconds per year, though some note slight deviations. Reviewers and owners highlight the scratch-resistant, gold-hued titanium case and the unique washi paper dial with gold leaf as standout aesthetic features, contributing to its wearability and perceived value. The Eco-Drive movement's perpetual calendar and long power reserve are also frequently cited strengths, with a decorated 23-jewel caliber noted as a surprise for a quartz movement. One owner experienced issues requiring repair in Japan after the watch was not kept charged, and some owners express concern about the rechargeable battery as a potential failure point. Overall, owners and reviewers rate The Citizen Caliber A060 highly for its blend of high-end finishing, impressive accuracy, and innovative solar technology.

CWC SBS Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date
