Citizen Eco-drive watches use the power of light to continuously recharge their lithium ion batteries. This revolutionary process works so well that the battery is able to store enough power to run the watch for 6 months in a completely dark room. What this means to you is no more need to replace watch batteries. Even if for some reason the watch does run completely down all you need to do to re-power it is to place it in the sunlight for a few hours. Each and every year hundreds of thousands of watch batteries enter our landfills - with an Eco-drive model you will stop contributing to this.
We have an image of eco products as less stylish, even hippy-ish, but we choose to use them because they are good for the environment. For so long eco products were manufactured and distributed on the fringes of our consumer driven world. But as more and more of us become aware of the distress our excessive consumption puts on the planet we have searched out eco products to use and wear. We pat ourselves on the back for doing good and just bear up under the idea that they may be less than stylish. Citizen Eco-drive watches will change this.
Citizen Eco-drive watches come in styles that are modern, sleek and versatile. These are watches that will be great at work, on a Friday night out, and at the family picnic. Eco-drive watches are slim profile watches on leather or metal bands that sit close to your wrist and always look elegant. The come with gold or silver accents and smooth finishes that gleam softly in the light as all fine jewellery does. But behind the sleek façade is a lithium-ion battery busy recharging itself and discreetly demonstrating your commitment to our environment.
Citizen Eco-drive watches allow you to do the right thing by our environment without sacrificing a single iota of style and elegance. In the future, as demand grows you will have access to more and more great options to help save our environment and our planet. In the meantime your Eco-drive watch can help make a daily statement about the need for stewardship and the elegance of 'going green.' Eco-drive watches make use of the power of light - sun, lamps, overhead office lighting - to give you a perpetual watch that will never need a battery change. This is environmental activism you can live with.
