FAQs
How often do I need to wear my automatic watch?
For optimal performance, an automatic watch should be worn regularly, ideally for at least 8-10 hours a day. This ensures sufficient movement to keep the mainspring wound. If left unworn for more than 40-48 hours (depending on the power reserve), it will stop and need to be restarted.
Can I swim or shower with my Citizen Tsuyosa watch?
No. The Citizen Tsuyosa has 50m water resistance, which means it is suitable for splashes, rain, and light hand washing. It is not designed for swimming, showering, diving, or prolonged submersion in water. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in if it comes into contact with water.
How do I adjust the stainless steel bracelet?
Bracelet adjustment typically involves removing or adding links to achieve a comfortable fit. For precise sizing and to avoid scratching your watch, it is highly recommended to have the bracelet adjusted by a professional jeweler or an authorized Citizen service center.
What is sapphire crystal and why is it important?
Sapphire crystal is a highly durable and scratch-resistant material used for the watch's face. It is much harder than standard mineral glass, providing superior protection against daily wear and tear, and ensuring clear visibility of the dial for many years.
Does this watch require a battery?
No, the Citizen Tsuyosa features an automatic mechanical movement, which means it is powered by the natural motion of your wrist. It does not require a battery, offering a traditional and self-sustaining timekeeping experience.
What is the warranty period for this watch?
The Citizen Automatic Tsuyosa watch comes with a 5-year manufacturer's warranty, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. Please refer to the warranty card provided with your watch for full terms and conditions.
Troubleshooting
My watch has stopped running or is losing time.
This is common for automatic watches if not worn regularly. Wear the watch for at least 8-10 hours daily to keep it wound. If it has completely stopped, gently shake it side-to-side for a minute or two to restart the movement. If the issue persists after regular wear, professional servicing may be required.
The date changes at noon instead of midnight.
This indicates the AM/PM cycle is incorrectly set. To correct this, pull the crown out to the furthest position, advance the time forward by 12 hours (past noon), and then reset the time to the correct current time. The date should now change around midnight.
Condensation or fog appears under the sapphire crystal.
This often indicates a breach in the watch's water resistance, possibly due to a compromised seal or impact. It requires immediate attention to prevent internal damage to the movement. Contact Citizen customer service or an authorized service center for repair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
- Unpack Your Watch: Carefully remove the watch from its packaging.
- Start the Movement: Since it's an automatic watch, it may not be running out of the box. Gently shake the watch from side to side for about 30 seconds to initiate the movement. For prolonged inactivity, you might need to wear it for an hour or two or manually wind it (if the crown allows).
- Set the Time: Pull the crown out to the furthest position. Rotate the crown to set the hour and minute hands. When the time is set, push the crown back in.
- Set the Date: Pull the crown out to the first click. Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the movement) to set the date. Ensure you set the date for the *previous* day to avoid the date changing at noon instead of midnight. Then, advance the time to the current time, ensuring the date changes when passing midnight. Push the crown back in.
- Adjust the Bracelet: For optimal comfort, the bracelet should be professionally sized by a jeweler. If you have the right tools, you can remove links yourself to achieve a snug but not tight fit.
Compatibility
- Wrist Size: The 40mm case diameter is designed to be versatile and comfortable on most adult wrist sizes.
- Activity: Suitable for daily wear, office environments, and casual outings. Its elegant design also makes it appropriate for semi-formal events.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and bracelet regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and oils. For the stainless steel, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Water Resistance: The watch has 50m water resistance. This means it is suitable for splashes, rain, and short immersions in water, like washing hands. It is NOT suitable for showering, swimming, diving, or prolonged submersion. Always ensure the crown is pushed completely in before any exposure to moisture.
- Avoid Shocks: While durable, avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to strong impacts, which can damage the delicate internal automatic movement.
- Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, MRI machines, strong magnets) as they can affect the accuracy of the automatic movement.
- Servicing: Automatic watches benefit from professional servicing every 3-5 years to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Refer to Citizen's official service centers for maintenance.
