Since before recorded civilization people have been fascinated by not only the movements of the Sun, but by its seemingly endless energy. Throughout history people have used the Suns position in the sky to gauge the time of day as well as the passing of the seasons. The earliest solar-centric time pieces known from the archaeological record are the obelisks and shadow clocks from ancient Egyptian and Babylonian astronomy, which date back as early as 3500 BC. Thousands of years later, with the invention of the Sundial, the position of the sun in conjunction with some advanced mathematical formulas, accurately and reliably determining the current time of day became commonplace.
Today, the engineers at The CITIZEN Watch Company have brought the ancient power of the sun together with the latest solar technology to create the wristwatch of the future. A personal time piece that requires no advanced mathematics to set, and will likely never need a battery replacement.
Introducing the Citizen Eco-Drive Watch. A high-tech yet stylish time piece available in several variations for both men and women. This Solar powered rechargeable wristwatch can function and retain solar energy for months on end with only minuscule amounts of ambient light to keep it charged.
