Citizen Eco-Drive Watch - BM8240-11A

The watch continuously recharges in any light. For optimal performance and to ensure it doesn't stop, regular daily wear or exposure to ambient light is recommended. A full charge can last for months in darkness.

Splash resistant means the watch can withstand minor splashes of water, such as from rain or washing your hands. It is not designed for swimming, diving, or prolonged exposure to water.

No, the Citizen Eco-Drive technology converts light into energy, eliminating the need for traditional battery replacements. It uses a permanently rechargeable power cell.

This watch comes with a 5-year Citizen UK warranty.

No, it is not recommended to wear the watch in the shower. The water, soap, and steam can potentially damage the seals and compromise its splash-resistant rating.

Typically, you pull the crown (the button on the side) out to the first or second click to set the time and date. Consult the watch's manual for precise instructions, as specific models may vary.

The watch needs to be recharged. Expose it to a light source (natural sunlight is most effective) for at least 24 hours. Ensure it is not being stored in complete darkness for extended periods.

Ensure the watch is fully charged. Manually set the day and date by following the instructions for your specific model, typically involving pulling the crown to different positions. Avoid changing the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the mechanism.

Leather straps can be adjusted by using the buckle holes. For wear, consider cleaning and conditioning the leather. If the strap is significantly worn or damaged, it may need to be replaced. Replacement straps can often be purchased from Citizen or authorized dealers.
