BZ1020-14E Summer 2017
At Baselworld 2017, CITIZEN will announce the new Bluetooth Watch model.
With its innovative design and ease of use, this new series will be released in Summer 2017.
The Bluetooth Watch has all the beauties of an analogue watch with the added convenience of a smartphone link. Just install the official app on your phone to link your watch and enjoy not only auto-time correction locally but to 316 cities across the world. The incoming call, email, or SNS messages are notified with hand movement, sound, or vibration. But most of all, it features light-powered Eco-Drive technology that can generate power from any light source, artificial, natural and even dim light so no cable charging is necessary. Once you do a full charge, it will keep running for up to 4 years (on power save mode), freeing users from regular battery changes and daily cable charging.

Eco-Drive Light-powered Technology
CITIZEN Bluetooth Watch is charged from any kind of light. That means there is no need for replacing batteries or for cable-based charging.

On a single full charge it can run for up to six months in total darkness.
*1?Eco-Drive is CITIZEN’ s proprietary technology that powers watches using any natural or artificial light source, eliminating the need to replace batteries. Certified as an Eco Mark product for the first time in the watch industry.
