Full details

This Citizen Eco-Drive watch is an excellent choice for individuals seeking a stylish and reliable timepiece for daily wear. Its primary benefit is the Eco-Drive technology, which eliminates the need for battery replacements by harnessing light energy. A minor caveat is its splash resistance, meaning it's not suitable for submersion. Key features include a rose gold-tone stainless steel case and bracelet, a white dial with luminous hands and a date display, and a durable Eco-Drive movement.

FAQs

What does "Eco-Drive" mean?

Eco-Drive is Citizen's proprietary technology that converts light energy (natural or artificial) into electrical energy to power the watch. This eliminates the need for battery replacement.

How long does the watch hold a charge?

A fully charged Eco-Drive watch can run for several months in the dark, depending on the specific model and its power reserve capacity.

Is the watch suitable for swimming?

No, this model is only splash resistant and should not be submerged in water. It is not designed for swimming or diving.

How do I set the date?

Gently pull the crown out to the first position and turn it to set the date. Be sure to set the time so that the date changes at midnight, not noon. Refer to the product manual for detailed instructions.

What is the warranty period?

This watch comes with a 5-year Citizen UK warranty.

Can I wear this watch in the shower?

It is not recommended to wear the watch in the shower due to potential exposure to hot water, steam, and soaps, which can affect water resistance seals over time.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time.

Expose the watch to a light source for at least 8-10 hours to fully charge the power reserve. If the issue persists after charging, contact authorized service.

Date is not changing correctly.

Ensure the time is set correctly, particularly the AM/PM cycle if applicable, so the date changes at midnight and not midday. Refer to the user manual for specific instructions on setting the date.

Scratches on the case or bracelet.

Minor scratches may be buffed by a professional watchmaker. For significant damage, replacement parts may be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The watch is a standalone analog timepiece and does not require compatibility with other devices.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Clean the watch case and bracelet using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Water Resistance: While splash resistant, avoid submerging the watch in water. Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet.
  • Charging: Regularly expose the watch to light (natural or artificial) to maintain its power reserve. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat or direct sunlight when not wearing, as this can potentially damage components.
