FAQs

What is Super Titanium?

Super Titanium is a proprietary material developed by Citizen. It is created using Citizen's surface hardening technology, making it five times more durable than stainless steel and approximately 40% lighter.

How does Eco-Drive technology work?

Eco-Drive converts light energy (from natural or artificial light sources) into electrical energy, which is stored in a rechargeable power cell. This eliminates the need for battery replacement, keeping the watch running continuously.

How long does the power reserve last?

The power reserve duration varies depending on the specific model and how much light it has been exposed to. Typically, a fully charged Eco-Drive watch can run for several months in darkness.

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

Yes, the CA4690-51A has a water resistance rating of 100 meters (10 bar), making it suitable for swimming, showering, and snorkeling. However, it is not recommended for scuba diving.

How do I operate the chronograph functions?

The chronograph is operated using the pushers located on the side of the watch case. The top pusher typically starts and stops the chronograph, while the bottom pusher resets it. Consult the user manual for detailed operation instructions specific to this model.

Is the watch suitable for formal occasions?

With its silver finish, white dial, and chronograph features, the watch offers a blend of sportiness and elegance. It can be suitable for smart-casual and some semi-formal occasions, depending on personal style.

What is the case diameter?

The case diameter is 41mm.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is running slow.

The Eco-Drive power cell may be depleted. Expose the watch to a bright light source for several hours to recharge. If the issue persists after a full charge, consult the user manual or a certified Citizen service center.

Chronograph hands are not resetting to zero.

The chronograph may need to be reset. Follow the specific reset procedure outlined in the user manual for your model, which typically involves setting the crown to the time-setting position and manipulating the pushers.

Difficulty setting the date.

Ensure the crown is pulled out to the correct position for date setting. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the date change mechanism. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions.

Scratches on the crystal.

While sapphire glass is highly scratch-resistant, deep impacts can still cause damage. Minor scratches may not be visible under normal conditions. For significant damage, professional repair by a Citizen service center is recommended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Citizen Super Titanium Chronograph (CA4690-51A) utilizes Eco-Drive technology, meaning it is powered by light. Upon receiving the watch, ensure it is exposed to a sufficient light source for several hours to fully charge the power cell. The date and time can be set by pulling the crown to the appropriate position. Consult the user manual for specific instructions on setting the time, date, and chronograph functions.

Compatibility: This watch is a standalone analog timepiece and does not require compatibility with other devices or software. It operates independently.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Clean the Super Titanium case and bracelet regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.
  • Power: To maintain optimal performance of the Eco-Drive system, ensure the watch is regularly exposed to light. Store it in a well-lit area when not in use.
  • Water Resistance: After exposure to salt water or chlorinated water, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it thoroughly. Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.
