The Citizen Story

The company was established in 1924. The founding fathers selected the name Citizen so it would be ""Close to the Hearts of People Everywhere"" and soon after adopted the company’s formal name, Citizen Watch Company.

During the last seventy-five years Citizen has expanded its business throughout the world and has achieved recognition as the global brand. The past twenty-five year period has coincided with the company’s dramatic rise to its current position as the world’s largest watchmaker, a distinction Citizen has held every year since 1986.

Beyond sheer size, Citizen is also recognized as a worldwide leader in advanced technology. From the world’s slimmest LCD watch to the first voice recognition watch and the world’s first professional dive watch with an electronic depth sensor, Citizen’s record of ""world’s firsts"" is unmatched.

More recently, Citizen has staked out a new position as the leader in timekeeping with its Eco-Drives watches that are light powered. With models ranging from dress models to sports models to professional dive watches, Citizen Eco-Drive runs continuously in any kind of natural or artificial light for a lifetime of use. Fueled by light, it never needs a battery.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Gold Watch, January 20, 2009

I got this mostly to wear to interviews and professional settings but now I find myself wearing it all the time. It's a real nice looking watch that looks more expensive than it is. I know not many people select gold anymore, but if you do I highly recommend this watch especially if you have or will be getting a gold wedding ring. It looks very classy and you never have to worry about a battery or cranking it (the Eco-Drive system works like a charm). It has kept time to within 2 seconds of my atomic clock for 2 months now, so the timing mechanism is very accurate. It also has a button clasp that is much nicer and easier to use than traditional watch clasps.

Overall I highly recommend this watch.

Will have to echo the above reviewer..

This watch looks more expensive it is, nice quality the little part with the date is kind of annoying because you have to synch it exactly at midnight from what I can tell but all in all it looks better than some watches double or even triple the cost...

Now it's no "ROLEX" but if your budget doesn't allow you to buy that kind of gadget it's hard to beat the value here from a decent low to mid range brand like Citizen..
