Citizen Thunder Bird Titanium – The Fusion of Strength, Precision, and Innovation
A Rare Model from Citizen’s Era of Titanium Mastery

The Citizen Thunder Bird Titanium is a distinctive creation that captures the pioneering spirit of Citizen’s 1990s technological innovation. Built at a time when the brand was redefining the concept of durability and functionality in wristwatches, this model stands as a true example of advanced Japanese engineering and timeless design.

Case: Crafted from solid titanium, the 41 mm case combines strength and lightweight comfort — a hallmark of Citizen’s mastery of this advanced material. Titanium not only resists corrosion and scratches but also provides exceptional comfort on the wrist, especially for those with sensitive skin.

Glass: Mineral crystal, engineered for clarity and resilience against everyday wear.

Dial: The black digital-analog dial is both functional and visually captivating, featuring gold-tone accents and well-organized sub-displays. The analog subdial at 6 o’clock complements the main digital interface, providing an elegant hybrid between traditional and modern timekeeping.

Water Resistance: 100 meters (10 BAR) – ready for swimming, snorkeling, or daily adventure.

Movement: Citizen Quartz Movement, known for precision and reliability. This dual-display mechanism perfectly synchronizes analog and digital functions, allowing for efficient use in both professional and leisure settings.

Functions:

Hours, minutes, seconds

Alarm function

Date display

Chronograph (1/100 second precision)

Dual time zone capability for travelers

Stopwatch, reset, and mode selection via four push buttons around the case

Bracelet: Original titanium bracelet with a secure folding clasp, designed to fit a wrist of up to 21 cm. Its integrated design enhances the watch’s seamless, sporty aesthetic.

Condition: Grade B – Good vintage condition with signs of normal use, consistent with age and wear.

Box: Supplied with a generic presentation box.

Story:
The Citizen Thunder Bird Titanium belongs to a rare generation of watches that emerged in the 1990s, when Citizen was experimenting with titanium technology and hybrid analog-digital interfaces. These watches were designed for professionals who valued precision, resilience, and versatility — whether on land, sea, or in the air.

The name “Thunder Bird” reflects its character: bold, dynamic, and fast, much like the aircraft and high-performance machines that inspired Citizen’s sport and aviation lines of the time. The titanium build was revolutionary — lighter than steel but stronger, capable of withstanding environmental stress while maintaining an elegant profile.

This model also represents an era when Japanese innovation led the global quartz revolution, combining advanced electronic movements with functional analog design. For collectors, the Thunder Bird series stands out as one of Citizen’s unsung heroes — a piece that bridges traditional craftsmanship with modern technology.

A watch built to last, powerful yet refined, this Citizen Thunder Bird is not just a timekeeper — it’s a piece of technological heritage that embodies the spirit of progress and endurance.
