Citizen to launch new radio-controlled Eco-Drive

May 2009


In 2009, Citizen Watch Company Limited will launch a new Eco-Drive radio-controlled model. This will be Citizen's first analogue chronograph capable of receiving standard time radio-waves from multiple stations.

The model is designed to receive standard time radio-waves from 5 stations including Germany, the U.S.A., Japan (east and west), and China. As a result, it offers accurate time in these major regions and countries: Europe, the U.S.A, Japan and China.

The new Eco-Drive radio-controlled model is innovative and continues to feature Citizen's flight pilot's watch design.

For world time, users can choose from 26 cities and UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). Simply turn the dial disk using the crown to switch the city. Doing this allows you to easily adjust the hour and second hands to the time zone of the city selected.

The pilot's slide rule dial ring located beneath the glass, and the precise 1/5 sec. chronograph symbolize the concept of an elaborate and masculine design that imparts the image of an airplane cockpit.
