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.

This review is from: Citizen Men's BM6552-52E Eco-Drive Gold-Tone Stainless Steel Watch (Watch)

Got it as a Christmas gift. Have been using it for about 1.5 weeks now. Just wanted to clarify that you can advance the date by setting the crown on position 1 and unlike the other reviewer said you don't have to advance the time 24 hours just to advance the date. Took me couple minutes to go from 28 to 26.

Nice looking watch, but setting the calendar is tough. It won't advance by itself, so you must rotate the crown to set the time forward 24 hours for every day you wish the calendar to advance. This took me 10 minutes to do. Seems like a poor design.
