Reviews

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

Citizen Tsuyosa Shore

The Citizen Tsuyosa Shore is widely regarded as a versatile sports-casual watch with accessible pricing. Owners and reviewers highlight its comfortable President-style bracelet with a mix of brushed and polished finishes, and the rotatable bezel with a 60-minute aluminum insert. The dial features sunray brushing, luminous markers, and sword-style hands. While offering 100m water resistance, it is not considered a true diver's watch as it does not meet ISO certification. On balance, the Citizen Tsuyosa Shore is well-received for its lifestyle-oriented design and everyday wearability at its price point.

From video reviewers

The value at its price point is a key strength. The integrated bracelet design is also a shared positive feature. Reviewers did not agree on any specific weaknesses.

Squale Super-Squale

Owners widely praise the Squale Super-Squale for its comfortable 38mm case, vintage skin diver aesthetic, and outstanding build quality for the price, with many highlighting the beads-of-rice bracelet as a standout feature and finding it a great value "go anywhere, do anything" watch. Some owners note the stock strap is not ideal and consider alternative strap options, while one enthusiast finds the 38mm case with 18mm lug width wears small. Accuracy of the Sellita SW200-1 movement is reported as ±7–20 seconds per day, which is considered not impressive by today's standards, though adequate for reliability and serviceability. Overall, owners rate the Squale Super-Squale highly for its vintage charm, comfortable wearability, and excellent value.
