Description

With its black gradient smoked dial enhanced with gold accents, the Citizen Tsuyosa 37 “Time Slip” stands out with its unexpected elegance. A limited edition that breaks with the conventions of the collection and asserts a more luxurious style without straying from the realm of affordability.The Legacy of the Tsuyosa: From the NH299 to the New 37mm VersionThe Tsuyosa collection, whose name means “strength” in Japanese, finds its roots in Citizen’s NH299 line, an emblematic range that marked the brand’s history in the late 1990s. The NH299 models already stood out for their use of stainless steel, a symbol of robustness and elegance, and laid the foundation for what would later become the Tsuyosa collection.The Tsuyosa line has been modernized while preserving the luxurious spirit of its predecessors. The case was first enlarged to 40 mm, offering a stronger presence on the wrist. This year, Citizen introduces a new 37 mm version, more compact and unisex, which retains the same aesthetic and functional codes.Faithful to the DNA of the Tsuyosa, the 37 mm models offer a minimalist design and the same features as the 40 mm version, making them the perfect daily watch: a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, 5-bar water resistance, a magnifier over the date for optimal legibility, a discreet crown for absolute comfort, and a stainless steel bracelet with smooth links that hug the wrist.The wide variety of available dial colors allows each wearer to find a watch that matches their personal style.Blue Sunray!The Tsuyosa collection follows in the footsteps of the great sport-chic watches of the seventies, recognizable by their fluid and harmonious lines. In this compact 37 mm format, the steel case alternates between polished and satin-brushed finishes, while the absence of lugs allows the integrated President-style bracelet to fall naturally and comfortably on the wrist. Its refined construction combines polished and brushed links, creating an elegant and luminous effect.But what truly makes this limited edition stand out is its smoked black gradient dial. Its grained texture, combined with the gradient effect, brings unprecedented visual depth. The gold-toned indexes and hands, as well as the applied markings, create a subtle contrast with the background, adding a discreet yet contemporary elegance. An interesting detail is the white date disc which, though surprising at first, ultimately balances the layout with the 9 o’clock marker.Inside the CaliberCitizen brings a century of watchmaking expertise and is among the largest watch manufacturers in the world.
