Ultra precise timekeeping with accuracy that won’t exceed 5 seconds, even if worn 365 days a year.

Continually crafting the next ideal

Since 1924, when CITIZEN released its first pocket watch,
a single ideal has been handed down within the company: We make watches that are an integral part of our customers’ lives. Established in 1995, The CITIZEN was conceived as a brand that would embody that ideal.

By incorporating and refining technologies that delight the wearer,
The CITIZEN has taken a leading role in our unending pursuit of the essence of the watch. The challenge of crafting the next ideal continues to this day.

Citizen's unique light-powered technology, "Eco-Drive," uses light as its power source, requiring a solar cell to be placed beneath the dial, thus necessitating a high level of light transmission. To address this, Tosa Washi paper was chosen as a material that allows light to pass through.

Citizen is one of the few watch manufacturers in the world that can produce everything from components to finished watches in-house. In particular, The CITIZEN, which requires highly advanced assembly techniques, is brought to life by exceptional technicians, including master watchmakers, who hone their senses to the fullest.

To ensure that those who encounter and own a The CITIZEN watch can enjoy it for as long as possible, we offer support to registered members of the "Citizen Owners Club," a special club for those who purchase a The CITIZEN watch, with a free warranty and inspections for up to 10 years (depending on the model). In addition, the Citizen Owners Club offers services that bring joy to our owners, such as invitations to special events.

The CITIZEN watch has a very simple design. Because it's a practical watch that you wear every day, excellent legibility, ease of use, and timeless beauty that won't fade with age are essential. In particular, various features have been incorporated to make it easy to read the time.
