- Does it really never need a battery?
- Yes. Eco-Drive runs on a solar cell behind the dial that charges from sunlight or indoor light. In normal wear it keeps running without battery changes.
- How does it compare with a standard quartz watch?
- It tells time the same way but removes the battery swap, which is the main upkeep of quartz watches. It does not add features like a chronograph or sapphire crystal.
- Will the luminous hands glow in the dark?
- The hands and markers are luminous, so they stay visible in low light after exposure to light. Brightness fades through the night, as with most lume.
- Is it safe to wear around water?
- Citizen sport watches of this type are typically rated for everyday water resistance such as hand washing and rain. Check the caseback rating before swimming.
- Does the two-tone bracelet fit small wrists?
- The bracelet uses removable links, so it can be sized to most wrists. A jeweler can adjust it if you are between sizes.
- Where is the Citizen Eco-Drive Two-Tone Sport Watch Gold cheapest?
- At Belk, for $351.20, as of our latest check.
