Eco-Drive
Citizen watches are usually of the Eco-Drive type. Eco-Drive watches are powered by several economically friendly power sources that range from a solar panel hidden under the face of the watch, to a kinetically (movement) powered watch. All Citizen Eco-Drive models are made in Japan. Not all Citizen watches are Eco-Drives.Additionally, Citizen manufactures a watch bearing the colors and logo of the Blue Angels. The watch is part of the Skyhawk line, which utilizes Eco-Drive as its primary power source. Just as the Blue Angels use blue and gold as their trademark colors, the watch bears this color scheme as well.
Other products
Some non-watch devices such as handheld televisions, have been marketed under the Citizen brand name.External links
