Eco-Drive dome Design for the Future


The year 2010 is the 80th anniversary of the founding of Citizen Watch Co., Ltd. It is also a historic year in which Eco-Drive takes a new step forward.

Eco-Drive development began 35 years ago and has long been praised as an innovative technology. The challenge has always been how to incorporate its power-generation advances in watches that epitomize beauty.

Committed to the proposition that Eco-Drive should be incorporated in each new generation of watches, they have worked for almost half their corporate history to meet this challenge. Those efforts bore fruit in the three concept models they presented in 2009, with extraordinary innovations. Such achievements demonstrate the possibilities of Eco-Drive, whose further innovation highly influences design as well as technology.

CITIZEN will launch Eco-Drive DOME, which was presented as a concept model last year. Only 500 of these watches will be produced in this exclusive, limited series.

The dome-shaped layered dial conveys light to the movement and emits futuristic sparkles. The distinctive design, which features the Eco-Drive engine enclosed inside the case, embodies the concept of light energy that you can wear.

Only an insatiable appetite for innovation could transform this creative concept and leading-edge design into a production model, worthy of the CITIZEN brand. At CITIZEN, concept watches turn dreams into realities, each of which is a new step towards an infinitely innovative future.
