The limited-edition model features lab-grown rubies *2, echoing back to the indices of the original 1973 design.

The dial, used to generate power for the watch, has also been updated using the latest manufacturing techniques. The iconic lines of the new case utilize CITIZEN’s stainless steel processing and polishing know-how. This iconic design from half a century ago was carefully studied, adapted, and given a fresh, new interpretation. The designs of the watches are inspired by a quartz watch model with an eye-catching original design launched by CITIZEN in 1973. The pulses used to move the hands have also been refined to allow new and exciting design possibilities. The movement maintains the standard 27 mm diameter with even higher power generation efficiency.

E365 movement inside these Eco-Drive 365 models further enhances the advantages of CITIZEN’s proprietary Eco-Drive - low power consumption and long running times - allowing each watch to run for 365 days on a full charge. Uniquely beautiful, innovative new designs CITIZEN is adding these new Eco-Drive 365 models to its global line-up to emphasize the appeal of Eco-Drive watches powered by clean energy to everyone who wants to build a brighter future. Our world is changing rapidly as we face a range of environmental issues including climate change and natural disasters, and our values and ways of thinking are becoming more diverse. CITIZEN has also worked to enhance the functionality and aesthetic appeal of each subsequent Eco-Drive model, and Eco-Drive watches are now worn by people in 140 countries and regions around the world. Since the launch of this groundbreaking model, CITIZEN has continued to pioneer light-powered watch technologies, advancing them to the point where even small amounts of light can be converted into electricity to power Eco-Drive watches. The world’s first light-powered analog watch was launched in 1976. This was the genesis of Eco-Drive, grounded in CITIZEN’s determination to provide the world with environmentally-friendly watches that do not need regular battery replacement. In the early 1970s, the world was in the midst of an energy crisis, and the engineers at CITIZEN looked to sunlight as an innovative, non-polluting clean energy source. This light is freely available to all and powers all of CITIZEN’s Eco-Drive watches, perfectly encapsulating CITIZEN’s corporate philosophy of “Loved by citizens, working for citizens.”

The light of the sun shines down equally on everyone, no matter where we are in the world. Eco-Drive watches for everyone, everywhere
