Citizen watches: highest quality and cutting-edge technologies
Although Citizen has long been one of the most renowned global players in the watch industry, the company still operates as a traditional manufacturer, meaning all watches are created entirely in-house - from design to parts production to final assembly. Driven by the most modern and sustainable technologies, Citizen’s robust, precise, and highly diverse watches showcase the brand’s enormous expertise. Fully aware of its history, Citizen continues to move toward the future. Join us in exploring the fascinating world of Citizen.
The innovative Citizen Eco-Drive technology
“Better starts now” - Citizen’s famous brand claim expresses the vision that there is always a next “better” and a new “now.” Few technical innovations embody this guiding principle as well as Citizen’s Eco-Drive solar technology. Eco-Drive uses different light sources to generate energy – both from natural sunlight and artificial indoor lighting. Once fully charged, Eco-Drive allows watches to run for months even in complete darkness. With Eco-Drive radio-controlled solar watches and Satellite Wave GPS solar watches, Citizen takes it a step further. These models combine environmentally friendly solar technology with maximum precision through radio-controlled or satellite-controlled timekeeping. Such Citizen radio-controlled watches and Citizen Satellite Wave GPS watches receive a daily radio or satellite signal worldwide, automatically adjusting to the exact time. This means no more battery replacements or tedious manual time adjustments.
Sporty and robust - the Citizen Promaster collection
Challenging adventures demand high performance from both people and materials - and that’s precisely why the Citizen Promaster collection was developed. These wristwatches are designed for professionals and can withstand extreme conditions:
- Diver’s watches in the Citizen Promaster Marine series are water-resistant up to at least 20 bar, sometimes even up to 100 bar. They feature screw-down crowns, automatic helium valves, and large rotating bezels that remain easy to operate underwater. Some Citizen dive watches are even certified for professional diving.
- Pilot watches from the Citizen Promaster Sky series offer practical features such as a slide rule bezel for flight calculations, a world-time display, or automatic radio synchronization with international time signals. Especially pilots and frequent travelers appreciate Citizen’s pilot watches for their cross-time-zone accuracy.
- Outdoor and expedition watches in the Citizen Promaster Land series stand out with extreme shock resistance due to scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, high resistance to water, heat, and cold, and features such as a compass, altimeter, or barometer.
Citizen quartz watches: precision for everyday life
Quartz watches have revolutionized timekeeping. Citizen has played a major role in continuously improving their functionality and precision. Unlike mechanical watches that rely on a complex system of gears, quartz watches use the vibrations of a tiny quartz crystal to measure time with outstanding accuracy, making them relatively low-maintenance. Citizen offers a wide range of quartz models - from classic three-hand watches to chronographs with stopwatch functions to highly precise, lightweight quartz watches made of Super Titanium, deviating by only a few seconds per year.
The beauty of mechanics - Citizen automatic watches
Citizen automatic watches are mechanical timepieces that wind themselves through the wearer’s hand movements. Unlike mechanical watches without an automatic function, they do not need to be wound manually, nor do they require a battery. A finely tuned gear system transfers movement energy to a mainspring, which powers the watch. Each fully wound Citizen automatic watch has a specific power reserve, allowing it to continue running even when not worn for a few days. A transparent case back reveals the intricate interplay of components such as the escape wheel, balance wheel, and escapement system.
Citizen titanium watches made of Super Titanium: lightweight, durable, and stylish
Anyone who has ever worn a titanium watch on their wrist often never wants to give up its pleasantly light weight and comfortable feel. The precious metal titanium is lighter than stainless steel yet extremely robust, sitting smoothly on the skin. Through the development of Super Titanium - a material created by treating solid titanium with Citizen’s proprietary Duratect surface hardening technology – Citizen has further enhanced titanium’s properties. Super Titanium watches are five times harder and 40% lighter than equivalent stainless steel models. This makes a Super Titanium watch the perfect combination of durability, comfort, and progressive design.
Below are the advantages of Citizen Super Titanium watches at a glance:
- Lightweight: Super Titanium is almost half as light as stainless steel, making it particularly comfortable to wear daily, even with relatively large watches.
- Durable: the material is extremely robust and scratch-resistant. It can withstand stronger impacts or knocks.
- Corrosion-resistant: neither sweat nor saltwater can damage Super Titanium, making it ideal for everyday use and sporting activities.
- Comfortable: unlike stainless steel, titanium never feels uncomfortably cold on the skin.
- Hypoallergenic: titanium watches are especially skin-friendly. People with sensitive skin will find Citizen Super Titanium watches to be an excellent choice.
Citizen watches made from Super Titanium combine the advantages of this unique material with excellent craftsmanship and exceptional designs.
What to consider when buying a Citizen watch
Whether for everyday wear, special occasions, or travel, a high-quality wristwatch usually accompanies you for many years, sometimes even a lifetime. Therefore, it is crucial to choose a model that impresses technically and suits your needs optimally. Citizen offers a vast range of models with various functions, materials, and designs. When making your decision, focus on what you value most in a watch:
- Movement technology: Eco-Drive solar models eliminate battery replacements and use all types of light as energy sources. Citizen quartz and radio-controlled watches offer uncompromising precision. For mechanical watch enthusiasts, a Citizen automatic watch is undoubtedly a highlight.
- Functions: depth gauge for divers, chronograph with a stopwatch for sporty gentlemen, or a globally precise Satellite Wave GPS watch for stylish globetrotters? The best technology is always the one that fits your lifestyle and makes everyday life easier.
- Material: titanium is ultra-light and hypoallergenic, stainless steel is versatile and high-quality, and leather is a must-have for many when it comes to watch straps. What are your preferences?
- Water resistance: 3 bar is sufficient for daily wear, 10 bar is recommended for swimming, and at least 20 bar is necessary for diving.
- Design: Sporty, elegant, minimalist, or glamourous? Ideally, your watch should not follow short-lived trends but still match your style tomorrow.
Tip: a watch should fit like a glove and feel absolutely right on your wrist. If possible, try out different models before choosing your favourite.
Citizen models for men and women
At Citizen, there is definitely a perfect watch for every wrist. Whether an elegant lady or a dynamic gentleman - or anyone in between and beyond - everyone is sure to find their new favourite timepiece here. Citizen women's watches stand out from the ordinary with dazzling sunray or mother-of-pearl dials in delicate rose or mint tones, as well as petite rectangular cases in classic gold or silver tones. Citizen men's watches, especially the extensive range of Citizen men's chronographs, emphasize a modern, distinctly sporty aesthetic. In addition to elegant timepieces with leather straps and dials in bold blue, deep green, or subtle grey, many models feature a expressive and contemporary design. The impressive selection of Citizen wristwatches for both men and women leaves no wish unfulfilled.
Properly cleaning and caring for Citizen watches
To ensure that your Citizen watch looks as good as new even after years of use, proper care is essential. Below, we have compiled some simple tips to help preserve your watch's beauty and extend your enjoyment of it:
- Stainless steel and titanium: occasionally clean the case and bracelet of your Citizen titanium or stainless steel watch with a soft cloth or a brush with dry, soft bristles. Avoid using cleaning agents, as they could damage components such as the crown’s seals.
- Leather straps: leather should always be protected from excessive moisture. Occasionally, you can gently wipe your Citizen watch's leather strap with a slightly damp cloth, then dry it with a soft cotton cloth or let it air dry. Keep in mind that leather, as a natural material, has a limited lifespan. Even the highest-quality straps can only withstand sweat and intense use - such as during sports - for a certain period. For this reason, it is best to replace your leather strap from time to time.
- Textile straps: excessive moisture can also be detrimental to textile straps, making them stiff and brittle over time. However, the fabric bands of Citizen watches can be easily cleaned with soap or a mild detergent. After rinsing, be sure to let the strap dry completely before wearing it again. Also, avoid direct contact with lotions, creams, or perfumes - this precaution applies to all types of straps and watches.
- Storage: if you plan to store your Citizen wristwatch for an extended period, clean it beforehand to prevent dirt from causing discolouration or corrosion damage. Then, keep your watch away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity, ideally at room temperature. The best storage option is a watch box or its original packaging.
