Does the Citizen Brycen really never need a battery?

Yes. Eco-Drive is a solar movement that charges from light and stores power in a capacitor, so there is no battery to replace. It still needs regular light exposure to keep a charge.

Yes. It is rated to 100 m, which covers swimming and showering. Avoid pressing the chronograph pushers underwater.

Is the crystal sapphire?

No. It uses scratch-resistant mineral crystal, which is durable but softer than sapphire and can pick up fine scratches.

The watch on its leather strap, a Citizen presentation box and the instruction manual. Check the listing for any warranty card details.

The stainless steel case is 44 mm across and the strap is 20 mm wide, so it wears large and suits medium to larger wrists.

What does the chronograph measure?

The 1/5 second chronograph counts up to 60 minutes, and the dial also shows 12- and 24-hour time plus the date.

About the Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Brycen Chronograph Watch

The Citizen Brycen is a men's sport chronograph powered by Citizen's Eco-Drive solar movement, so it charges from any light source and never needs a battery change. Its 44 mm stainless steel case holds a green chronograph dial with red accents, a date window and 100 m water resistance, on a perforated brown leather strap. The mineral crystal is scratch resistant but below sapphire grade. It is a solid everyday sports watch with more dial character than plain three-hand rivals; reviewers praise the solar movement and looks and fault the strap and crystal.
