Product Information

Full details

This Citizen Captain America Inspired Watch (BV1140-00W) is for fans and enthusiasts who appreciate a blend of iconic heroism and reliable watchmaking. Its key benefit lies in its durable, military-inspired design powered by innovative Eco-Drive technology, offering continuous operation without battery changes. A potential caveat is its 50-meter water resistance, which is suitable for splashes but not for deep water activities. This watch features a black dial with luminous markings, a stainless steel case, Cordura strap, and a date window, embodying the spirit of the first Avenger.

FAQs

Does this watch require a battery replacement?

No, this watch uses Citizen's Eco-Drive technology, which converts light into energy, eliminating the need for traditional battery changes.

How long does the Eco-Drive charge last?

A full charge can typically last from 4 months to over a year in darkness, depending on the specific model and its power consumption.

Can I swim with this watch?

The watch has 50-meter water resistance, which is suitable for splashes and brief immersion like handwashing. It is not recommended for swimming, diving, or prolonged water exposure.

What material is the watch crystal made of?

The watch features a Spherical Mineral Crystal glass, known for its clarity and moderate scratch resistance.

How do I clean the Cordura strap?

You can clean the Cordura strap with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap if necessary. Rinse with clean water and allow it to air dry completely.

Is this an officially licensed Marvel product?

While inspired by Captain America, this watch is a Citizen product. Specific licensing details are best confirmed with the retailer or manufacturer.

What is the case size of the watch?

The watch case has a diameter of 40mm.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running

The Eco-Drive battery may be depleted. Expose the watch to a strong light source for several hours to recharge. If it stops again shortly after, the rechargeable battery may need servicing.

Date is incorrect or not changing

Ensure the time is set correctly, including AM/PM. Adjust the date by pulling the crown to the first position and rotating. Avoid changing the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.

Luminosity fades quickly

Luminous material has a finite glow time after exposure to light. For best results, expose the watch to a bright light source before entering darkness. The intensity and duration of the glow can vary.

Strap is uncomfortable or worn

The Cordura strap can be adjusted for fit. If it shows signs of wear, replacement straps are available from authorized dealers or watch part suppliers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Initial Charge: Expose the watch to a light source (natural or artificial) for at least a few hours to ensure the Eco-Drive power reserve is fully charged. The watch may stop if depleted and will restart when exposed to light.
Time Setting: Pull the crown out to the appropriate position (usually the first or second click) and set the time and date. Push the crown back in to secure.

Compatibility:

This watch is a standalone timepiece and does not require compatibility with other devices for its core function.

Care:

Cleaning: Wipe the case and crystal gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Clean the Cordura strap with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then rinse and air dry.
Storage: Store the watch in a well-lit area, even when not being worn, to maintain the Eco-Drive charge. Avoid prolonged storage in complete darkness.
Water Resistance: After exposure to saltwater or chemicals, rinse the watch with clean fresh water and dry thoroughly. Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures or strong magnetic fields.
