- Does an Eco-Drive watch need a battery?
- No. A solar cell under the dial charges a capacitor from any light, indoor or outdoor. In the dark it keeps running on stored power for months.
- Is a 25mm case too small?
- It is on the small side and reads as a classic dress watch. It suits wrists under about 6.5 inches; shoppers who like a bold watch should look at 30mm and up.
- Can I swim with it?
- It is water resistant, which covers handwashing and rain. Without a stated depth rating, do not swim or shower in it.
- Is $395 a good price?
- It is the only new price listed, at Macy's as of November 5, 2026, so there is no recent low to compare. Two-tone Eco-Drive women's models often sell between $300 and $450, so this is mid-range.
- What comes in the box?
- A Citizen watch, its bracelet sized for an average wrist, and the warranty card. Extra links are usually included so a jeweler can adjust the fit.
- How does it compare with a Seiko solar watch?
- Both run on light. Citizen's Eco-Drive has a longer track record and often a thinner case; Seiko solar models usually cost less at similar sizes.
- Where is the Citizen Eco-Drive Women's Gold-Tone Two-Tone Stainless Steel Watch cheapest?
- At Macy's, for $395.00, as of our latest check.
