The very name of the brand conveys a deep respect toward craftsmanship and considered as familiar by citizens the world-over. So as a “citizen” of the world, we bear the responsibility to help cultivate a culture of positive change and on-going evolution through our craft. We take that mission seriously and steadfastly welcome what the future may bring. As a true manufacture d’horlogerie, CITIZEN integrates a comprehensive manufacturing process from creating individual components to a watch’s final assembly. It’s an artisan’s approach to watch making based on pushing forward the boundaries of technology and leveraging our experience toward exploring new possibilities. One pivotal technological breakthrough was the development of a light-driven watch. CITIZEN pioneered this engineering innovation well ahead of other watch manufacturers as early as 1976, which led to the launch of the highly acclaimed Eco-Drive in 1995. Utilizing electrical power converted from virtually any light source, this extraordinary innovation changed forever the way watches could be powered. Eco-Drive eliminated the need to ever replace batteries, which made it especially beneficial to areas where such specialist batteries were not obtainable. This leveled the field for citizens of virtually every country to be able to experience unrestricted joy of wearing and using a CITIZEN watch. The product development policy, “The Fusion of Technology and Beauty,” remains a constant motivation for us to merge cutting-edge technology with perfection of design beauty, which as a consequence inspires people to strive to be their best at any time. CITIZEN launches a new campaign in collaboration with Wieden+Kennedy, Better Starts Now. This is the simple belief that no matter who you are or what you do, it is always possible to make something better — and now is the time to start doing it. We believe that better and now are both infinite, and that there is always a next ‘better’ and a new ‘now’ in which you can start pursuing it. It was clear from the onset of this project that we are dedicated to this ideal…not to the past but to the present, and all the way we can improve it. To help communicate this belief to the world we have created a new global CITIZEN brand movie, brand identity and brand website that represents out Better Starts Now philosophy. See more

Great Watch And Makes For A Fantastic Gift!!
I have bought two of these watches over the past two years both as gifts. I bought one for my mom last year and this year I bought one for another family member. These watches have a fantastic presentation to be expected from Citizen. The watch comes in a stylish box with a hinged lid that has nice resistance to keep it closed until ready to open.The watch itself is very detailed and keeps great time. One of the watches I bought was a two tone silver with gold and it really pops when you open the box.I was new to the eco drive technology but seems to work well and there is no visible solar panels etc to take away from the beauty of the face plate. The only drawback is that the eco drive storage capacitor/battery is said to only be good for 15 to 25 years but is replaceable from what research I did on this watch before I made my first purchase.The watch comes with the time set pin pulled so watch is not running in transport. Once you push in the set pin, watch will begin ticking away.Overall these are very affordable watches for the quality you get and they make a fantastic gift. You can't go wrong with a Citizen timepiece.

SUPER HAPPY WITH MY NEW WATCH! ARRIVED JUST AS EXPECTED!
I ordered this Friday and just received it today (Sunday). It was just as expected and packaged well in the official Citizen box with registration/setting booklet. Watch was easy to set with the crown (I had a Fossil watch with the same type of dials) and was in working order as soon as I finished setting it (pushed the knob in). The watch is very feminine and "dressy" in my opinion, but I have no doubt that it will also be sturdy enough to last (and registering online gives you a six year warranty on Eco-drive watches)!It is smaller than my old two-toned Fossil (face and band) but I don't remember what the measurements were for my old watch and have not seen any models that are similar anymore. (It was a Nordstrom sale purchase circa mid-90s!) Yes, the day-date are a bit difficult to read (especially if you are past your early 40's!)...but it is to be expected from a ladies' wrist watch! I would have loved to find this similar watch come in a 32 or 34 mm size, but as such, this was the only option and my favorite look. I almost opted to try the men's version, but it only came with a 40 mm face!Overall, I am extremely happy with my purchase! I feel especially good about the Eco-drive feature (I had many, many years of having to take the old Fossil in for battery replacement!) and after many years sans wearing a wrist watch, it feels good to be able to have time, day of the week and date ready with a glance (without having to unlock my cell phone!)I tried to include photos for size perspective because it's hard to tell how big someone's wrist is! It's a bit loose on me but I like it to dangle and will not remove any links. The bezel size is just a tad bigger in diameter than my 9.5 sized index finger ring, and the booklet included is just a tad bigger than a standard post-it pad. Hope that helps!

Worth every penny!
Beautiful! I had this in my wish list for Christmas. I have been wearing a $40 Timex indiglo for years but every 6 months both of the batteries die and I have to drive an hour and a half from our small town to get them replaced. I was drawn to the Ecodrive because its both dressy and casual but never needs a battery as long as it’s exposed to light on a regular basis. My husband gave this to me for Christmas, and I love it! It does glow in the dark if you charge the glow areas up under a bright light before going to bed. I put mine under one of those bright LED portable light switches. (Photo attached). This is a bit heavier than my old watch but once I wore it for a few hours I didn’t even notice anymore. I took it to have some links removed and it fits perfectly now. I went to the Citizen website and entered my model number yo find my watch’s instruction manual for setting it, it was pretty easy to follow. I absolutely love this watch and expect it to last me many years to come.

Keeps time
The style and face size is great for my smaller wrist. I had to remove 4 links, two on each side of the watch band. I like how the band closes and it does not get caught and open accidentally. The watch keeps accurate time.My one and a major disappointment for me is the luminous hands and markers. This watch can sit in sunlight for 8 hours or more and the luminous hands glow for about an hour and the markers don't glow at all Luminous hands were one of the main reasons I decided on this watch. The quality Citizen watches have, I never expected this issue. I never had such weak luminous hands on my cheap watches.

Beautiful, versatile and understated.
Out of 4 citizen eco drive silver with gold accent women’s watches tested, we found this to be by far the most handsome of the lot. It is classic, subtle and beautiful. Although not numbered, it is easy to read, and we love the day feature, which is uncommon. Some of citizen similar watches have difficult to read dates but this one was more clear to us. The accenting on the case is detailed and looks durable. The watch face has a very subtle reflective circular pattern, reminiscent to a CD or record, which illustrates the quality of detail. I am hopeful that the watch will keep its beauty and functionality for many years. If you are in the market for this style, I highly recommend this watch. There was one more eco drive with an opalescent watch face, that I also liked, but ultimately thought the details on this watch appear slightly higher quality and it is easier to read.

beautiful, affordable
i am a swimmer. Chose this for the water resistance, the screw-on case, but the eco-drive system is a huge plus. this is a beautiful, well-weighted watch. very happy with it! Yeah, a bit large, but paid $15 to have 3 links removed. now fits well - breathable room vs. tight fit - doesn't rotate on my wrist. So pleased with thus watch. Great price, btw.
