Citizen’s latest release in the Arab region is a men’s chronograph in stainless steel and black dial that is both utilitarian in function and robustly charming in good looks. The rugged appeal is softened by the steel mesh bracelet, making this a chronograph that is both stylish and ready for action.
The 45mm case is enclosed by crystal glass and the watch is water resistant to 1000 meters. The orange time markers contrast and highlight the black dial effectively. The watch features a 1/5 second chronograph and both 24 hour and date displays. This Eco-Drive powered chronograph also comes with a 7-month power reserve and an overcharge prevention and insufficient charge warning function.
The Eco-Drive technology began from a simple yet revolutionary idea – a watch that never needs a battery. This technology converts any light source into energy and stores the energy in a rechargeable lithium ion power cell, which keeps the watches running for six months or more on full charge. Battery changes are a thing of the past as the watches charge in both types of light – natural and artificial – including sunlight, fluorescent bulbs and ordinary bulbs.
When left in the dark, some Eco-Drive watches enter into power-save mode where the hands and its other features stop. Upon exposure back to light, it automatically recharges and functions accurately. The Citizen Eco-Drive collection includes an eco-friendly feature, allowing it to exist in harmony with nature. The watches are completely free of harmful metals and materials just as nature intended.
Citizen is a true manufacture d’horlogerie with a comprehensive manufacturing process that extends from creating a watch’s individual components to its final assembly. The company operates in more than 100 countries around the world. Since its founding in 1918, Citizen have held the belief of “Better Starts Now” – that is, no matter who you are and what you do, it is always possible to make something better, and now is the time to start doing it. Sharing this belief, we have made watches, invented and improved technologies and explored the future of watches such as our propriety light-powered technology Eco-Drive and state-of-the-art satellite-synchronized timekeeping.
