Citizen Expands Series8 890 With The New Green-Dial NB6060-58X
Citizen expands its Series8 890 collection with the introduction of the new NB6060-58X, featuring a striking textured green dial inspired by Tokyo’s skylines. This latest addition joins the permanent lineup alongside the blue dial variant and the gold-plated model with a black dial, complementing the previously released salmon limited edition.
Housed in a robust 42.60mm octagonal stainless steel case, the Citizen Series8 890 maintains its signature five-piece construction, characterized by a predominantly brushed finish with polished bevels. The watch comes equipped with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, an 8-sided bezel, and a fluted screw-down crown at 3 o’clock, flanked by crown guards. An additional crown at 2 o’clock allows for the adjustment of the inner bezel, enhancing functionality. The case back is screwed down with an open design, and the watch delivers an impressive 200-meter water resistance.
The dial of the Citizen NB6060-58X stands out with its intricate green pattern, providing a visually dynamic effect. It is adorned with applied hour markers and broad faceted hands, all coated with Lumibrite for optimal legibility in low-light conditions. A framed date window positioned at 3 o’clock features a white background for clear readability. The outer edge of the dial showcases a printed minute track, while the 60-minute bidirectional bezel displays a two-tone finish. The branding appears at 12 o’clock, with “Series 8 Automatic” inscribed at 6 o’clock, emphasizing the watch’s identity.
Powering the Citizen NB6060-58X is the in-house automatic Caliber 9051, a highly reliable movement equipped with 24 jewels. It operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and offers a power reserve of up to 42 hours. With an impressive resistance to magnetic fields up to 16,000 A/m and an accuracy rating of +20 / -10 seconds per day, the movement ensures precision and durability.
Completing the watch’s design is an integrated stainless steel bracelet featuring H-shaped links, secured with a signed folding clasp for a comfortable and secure fit. The Citizen NB6060-58X is now available for purchase at a retail price of USD 1,395, making it a compelling option for enthusiasts seeking a versatile and robust automatic sports watch.
