The Citizen Watch Brand

The company was established in 1924. The founding fathers selected the name Citizen so it would be "Close to the Hearts of People Everywhere" and soon after adopted the company’s formal name, Citizen Watch Company.

During the last seventy-five years Citizen has expanded its business throughout the world and has achieved recognition as the global brand. The past twenty-five year period has coincided with the company’s dramatic rise to its current position as the world’s largest watchmaker, a distinction Citizen has held every year since 1986.

Beyond sheer size, Citizen is also recognized as a worldwide leader in advanced technology. From the world’s slimmest LCD watch to the first voice recognition watch and the world’s first professional dive watch with an electronic depth sensor, Citizen’s record of "world’s firsts" is unmatched.

More recently, Citizen has staked out a new position as the leader in Ecologically Friendly timekeeping with its Eco-Drives watches that are light powered. With models ranging from dress models to sports models to professional dive watches, Citizen Eco-Drive runs continuously in any kind of natural or artificial light for a lifetime of use. Fueled by light, it never needs a battery.

A Sad Day
Today is a sad day. After 17 years I have decided to part with my Citizen EA8522-50P watch. My mom gave me this watch 17 years ago, when I was 15 and it has been worn daily since. At times I have sat on it, dropped it, dropped things on it, stepped on it, submerged it in water, and more. This watch has withstood the test of time. Daily wear for 17 years, no kidding. The band has just started to come apart slightly and the watch has begun to discolor a bit from all the wear. It still looks okay, but not fresh. I am definitely going to replace it with another Citizen. Like the saying goes "Citizen -it takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin.' A fabulous watch. Very elegant bangle design with a super sturdy clasp too. The dial is small though so if you have poor eyesight or need numbers then upgrade to a different model.
