Imagine a watch that is reliable, runs independent of kinetic energy or battery replacement and is powered by light. That to me is a value proposition that is too good to be missed.
For instance, this is my first Citizen Eco-Drive watch that has been working for me fuss-free and clocking accurate time non-stop over several years now.
As gleaned from www.citizen.com, its Eco-Drive technology harnesses the power of light – from any natural or artificial light source. The light which is absorbed through the face of the watch is then converted into energy and stored in a permanently rechargeable lithium-ion cell, which recharges continuously in any kind of light to run forever.
To this day I am still befuddled as to why such environmentally-friendly watches do not seem to be catching on just yet, en masse. Could it be that they are lacking in the looks department? I don't think so and have recently procured a second Eco-Drive watch.
You could evaluate for yourself on whether they would appeal to you by googling for "Images of Citizen Eco-Drive Watches" or take a peep at http://www.bodying.sg/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=Eco-drive&osCsid=dff6vadjq0iqjpdhmp28v0m9a5
Maybe, perhaps, this technology is simply ahead of its time. Looking to the future, eco-friendly watches such as Citizen Eco-Drive could well be ticking away all over the world, unstoppably.
