Hands-On: Limited-Edition Citizen Zenshin Fantastic Four — A Character Watch With Character?
The Citizen Zenshin Fantastic Four is a limited-edition watch that creatively merges character elements from the Marvel universe with a contemporary design. It features a 39mm case made of Citizen's lightweight Super Titanium alloy, which fits the retro-futuristic theme of the "Fantastic Four: First Steps" film. The watch incorporates a brushed powder blue dial with unique indices representing the four characters, adding a playful touch while maintaining functionality. Despite the thematic design, it does not compromise on legibility, though the aesthetic may challenge quick reading at times. Powered by Citizen's reliable J800 Eco-Drive quartz movement, the watch promises an accuracy of +15/-15 seconds per month and a power reserve of eight months on a full charge. Only 1,100 pieces will be produced, making it a collectible item for fans and watch enthusiasts alike. The integrated bracelet complements the watch's overall design, ensuring comfort and style. Priced at $625 USD, it is available through authorized dealers, showcasing Citizen's ability to create watches that resonate with both character and quality.
