Citizen’s $100 Eco-Drive, Solar-Powered and Valentine’s Day-Worthy Watch Won’t Stop Until the Sun Does
If you haven’t locked down your Valentine’s Day gift yet, now’s the time.
Nothing on our little planet burns as hot, reaches as far, or enlivens biological processes as much as the Sun, so harness its energy into your Valentine’s Day gift with Citizen’s stainless steel and solar-powered rose-gold wristwatch — going right now for $100.
The most important feature of this elegant jewel is the Eco Drive, which is what Citizen has labeled its solar energy-powered products since launching the feature in earnest in 1995 (it had been winding the technology up since the 1970s). This watch will never beg you for a battery so that just like your love, it will keep ticking forever. And instead of apps and anxiety-inducing notifications, this watch will only tell you the time, day, and date, so you’re only on the clock when you want to be. The watch also features 99-feet worth of water resistance, which among other things translates to being able to shower with it — this is important since you’re going to shower your Valentine with love, right? Right?!
