Questions and answers

Does the Citizen Carson Eco-Drive need a battery?
No. Eco-Drive charges from any light source, so there is no battery to replace. Keep it where light reaches the dial, such as a windowsill, when not worn.
How big is the case?
The case is 42mm across, a mid-size round case. It wears comfortably on average wrists but can look large on slim ones.
Is it safe to swim in?
It is water resistant, which covers handwashing and rain. Citizen does not rate this model for swimming or diving, so take it off for those.
What is in the box?
The watch comes on its bracelet with Citizen's documentation. A full charge may take a few days of light exposure before first use.
Is it worth it over a standard quartz watch?
Yes, if you want to skip battery changes. Eco-Drive costs a little more up front but runs for years on light alone.
