FAQs

How does the Eco-Drive technology work?

The Eco-Drive technology converts any light, whether natural or artificial, into energy. This energy is stored in a permanently rechargeable power cell, eliminating the need for battery changes.

How long does the watch run when fully charged?

The watch can run for several months on a full charge, even in darkness, depending on the model.

Can I swim with this watch?

The watch is water-resistant to 50 meters, suitable for hand washing and short periods of recreational swimming. However, it is not suitable for diving or extended submersion.

How do I adjust the bracelet?

Adjusting the bracelet is best done by a qualified jeweler, who can remove or add links to fit your wrist properly.

What kind of light is best for charging the watch?

Any light source will charge the watch. However, direct sunlight or bright artificial light will charge it more quickly.

What is the warranty period for the watch?

Warranty details are specific to the retailer; check the warranty information provided with your purchase.

Where can I find the user manual?

You can usually find the user manual on the Citizen website or in the box that came with the watch.
