Citizen's Series 8 880 GMT: A Bold Modern GMT With Tokyo Skyline Flair

Citizen expands its Series 8 line with two 41mm 880 GMT models powered by the in-house caliber 9054 (28,800 vph, 50h power reserve, -10/+20 s/day). The angular 13.54mm-thick stainless-steel case on a heavy 183 g bracelet houses a blue/black or blue/white dial with a Tokyo skyline pattern and a bidirectional 24-hour bezel. Priced at €1,225, the watches offer solid build quality and distinctive styling, though the bracelet lacks screw links and micro-adjustment. The blue/white version is favored by the reviewer, and the line is positioned as a strong, affordable GMT option against micro brands like Nodus, Traska, and RZE, with calls for more colors (including gold) in the future.
