If you have decided to treat your sweetheart to a watch this Valentines Day, then choose a watch with a documented history of success. Choose a Citizen watch one of the largest watchmakers in the world and a definite industry leader.
The Citizen Watch Company, founded in 1930, came to life at a time when the wrist watch was all the rage. Everyone wanted one. Citizen, one of the first to target its wrist watches to the masses, thought the name said it all: a watch for the citizens.
More than 80 years later, Citizen Watch Company still offers something for everyone: functional, fashionable and affordable timepieces. And along the way, the company has racked up several firsts in the industry:
In 1956, Citizen made the first shock-resistant watch ever manufactured by a Japanese company and the first Japanese-manufactured water resistant watch
It created the very first professional dive watch that could electronically sense depths
It manufactured the slimmest LCD watch and the worlds thinnest light-powered watch, the Stiletto
It created the first voice recognition watch
And Citizen still leads the industry in light-powered watches that run on natural and artificial light as power sources.
Citizen watches have plenty of choices for men and women.
