Wristwatches from Citizen
“Citizen Watch Co., Ltd.” is a famous Japanese manufacturer of clockworks and watches located in Tokyo (Japan). Citizen has been in the first place chartered as Shokosha Watch Research Institute in the year 1918. The concern was established in 1924 when the first product, a tiny pocket watch named Citizen, was placed on the market. In 1930 the company assumed the name Citizen Watch Company, too. The founders once have been selected the name Citizen because they attempted to get 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 instance the first Japanese wristwatch having a wake-up-function was launched by Citizen in 1958. In the 1970ties Citizen built the debut quartz watches with LCD display and later also the smallest LCD wristwatch ever. 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. More than that that the concern was an outrider in producing dive watches for professional use. A highlight was the embedded bathometer - no one else was able to offer a similar great function. Additional, Citizen is well-known for its Eco-Drive collection of light powered watches. Fuelled simply by light, it doesn’t need any batteries.
