Still water swimming with a watch on
With 50 meters (5 ATM) of water resistance, this Citizen Tsuyosa is rated for still water swimming, so it can be worn in a pool or calm water without taking it off. To help keep water out, keep the crown pushed in to its normal position, and avoid pulling out the crown or pressing any buttons while the watch is wet.[1,2,3]
Everyday automatic winding with manual backup
Worn regularly, the watch winds its mainspring automatically from the movement of your hand — wearing it 8 hours or more a day winds it for about a day of movement — with a fully wound power reserve of at least 40 hours. The mainspring can also be wound manually by turning the crown, which the manufacturer advises doing adequately before setting the time. Note some reviewers find the recessed crown relatively difficult to grab for winding or time setting.[2,3,4]
Setting the time and date on the Tsuyosa
The Tsuyosa's Calibre 8210 movement supports a quick-set date alongside manual winding and stop seconds, so time and date can be adjusted with the crown. Reviewers note the recessed crown at the 4 o'clock position is a bit difficult to grip and operate — unlikely to bother if it's your only watch, but resetting can get frustrating if you wear it infrequently.[2,4,5]
All-day everyday wear with a comfortable fit
The Tsuyosa's 40 mm case with compact lugs is sized to wear comfortably for most people, and reviewers describe it as a very comfortable watch for daily wear. Note that the recessed 4 o'clock crown aids comfort but can make setting the time a bit tricky, and the bracelet is best sized by a watch technician so it fits properly.[2,3,4]
Checking the time and date at a glance
This Citizen Tsuyosa runs on an automatic movement that pairs a conventional three-hand time display with a date function. A rectangular date window at the 3 o'clock position sits under a circular magnifier on the crystal to enlarge the date, and the movement includes a quick-set date for adjusting it. As with any mechanical watch, the stated accuracy reflects static accuracy at normal temperature, and real-world accuracy can vary with mainspring winding, wearing position, and conditions like temperature, magnetism, or impact.[3,5,6]
