Citizen Watches
“Citizen Watch Co., Ltd.” is a famed Japanese maker of clockworks and watches placed in Tokyo (Japan). Citizen has been in the first place chartered as Shokosha Watch Research Institute in the year 1918. The business concern was built in 1924 when the first product, a little pocket watch named Citizen, was positioned on the market. In 1930 the company assumed the name Citizen Watch Company, too. The founding fathers once have been selected the name Citizen because they tried to find a direct way to the peoples emotions. This is still today the notion behind watches made by Citizen.
First watch with Eco-Drive - Models reaching from dress to athletics
For Example the debut Japanese wrist watch having a wake-up-function was established by Citizen in 1958. In the 1970ties Citizen originated the debut quartz wrist watches with LCD display and afterwards also the smallest LCD wristwatch of all time. In the early 1990ties Citizen started 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 developing dive watches for professional use. A highlight was the embedded bathometer - no one else was able to offer a similar specific function. Additional, Citizen is celebrated for its Eco-Drive collection of light powered wrist watches. Fuelled just by light, it doesn’t require any batteries. Designs reaching from dress to athletics (e.g. professional dive watches), Citizen offers a collection for everybody and every occasion. Find out more about Citizen watches
