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.

got this for work, always wanted an ecodrive and this came on sale and voila. Wanted something not too dressy but in two tone for work, with a large enough face that did not overdo it...and this was perfect. Have it quite a while now at least 4 months and no worries, it also has been splashed once or twice with water and no problems...

This is an update, It is almost a year now (less ten days) since I initially purchased this watch, and it has been working like a dream, been caught in the rain a few times and had it on washing dishes (absentmindedly) a few times and it is still working well. The watch band color still looks good and there are no scratches to the face...so if you were hesitating about buying.....hope this helps...

Funny I came on to purchase something else and decided to update this link.
The watch is still my primary watch, I use it to go everywhere, work, casually etc.
It has never given the wrong time. The face has one or two (literally) fine scratches that are NOT readily visible unless you want to srcutinize it, which i did for this review. Few scratches on band. But like I said I wear this just about everywhere through even sporting activities so it has been banged around a few times, I've also dropped it (yes I am ashamed) a few times, not many and like I said it works just as well as the first day it was bought.
I can't say enough good things about it. It certainly does not need replacing, a good investment!

I wanted this watch for my birthday,so when Amazon put it on sale my husband told me to go ahead and order it. When it arrived, I was so very impressed with it. I had not seen it in real life and I thought it was much more beautiful than the picture online made it out to be. It is first class in design and appearance. I LOVE IT!!

I bought this as a gift to my mom and a matching watch #BM0334-56P to my dad. They love the watches. Pretty accurate. Go fast only 1 second in 20 days.
