Citizen · Tsuyosa Small Second

Strengths

A convincing entry into mechanics: an expressive dial, sapphire and a restrained date-free design.

Things to consider

The −20/+40-second daily tolerance is broad; try the recessed crown before buying.

Brew · Metric Chrono Taxi

Strengths

A persuasive design purchase: compact proportions, sapphire and distinctive graphics for $495. Particularly appealing as a colourful addition to a mechanical collection.

Things to consider

This is battery-powered meca-quartz. The case is compact, water resistance is 50 m, and shipping and import charges raise the final price. A 1,000-piece edition does not guarantee investment returns.
