Why I like Citizen Watches
“Citizen Watch Co., Ltd.” is a celebrated Japanese producer of clockworks and wrist watches based in Tokyo (Japan). Citizen has been mainly chartered as Shokosha Watch Research Institute in the year 1918. The concern was established in 1924 when the first product, a little pocket watch called Citizen, was positioned on the market. In 1930 the company assumed the name Citizen Watch Company, too. The founding fathers once have been chosen the name Citizen because they attempted to get a direct way to the peoples heart. This is still nowadays the notion behind watches built by Citizen.
First watch with Eco-Drive - Models reaching from dress to athletics
For Example the debut Japanese wristwatch having a wake-up-function was established by Citizen in 1958. In the 1970ties Citizen developed the debut quartz wrist watches with LCD display and afterwards also the slightest LCD wrist watch ever. In the early 1990ties Citizen originated the premier series production of watchcases consisting of titanium. In addition to that, they designed the leadoff voice recognition watch which was another big milestone in their history. Beyond that the concern was an outrider in evolving dive watches for professional use. A highlight was the embedded bathometer - no one else was able to offer a similar uncommon function. Additional, Citizen is famous for its Eco-Drive collection of light powered watches. Fuelled just by light, it doesn’t need any batteries. Designs reaching from dress to athletics (e.g. professional dive watches), Citizen has a collection for everybody and every occasion.
