Citizen is a brand with a long-standing history in the watchmaking industry. Since its founding in Japan in the 1930s, the brand has become a household name. The electronics company is best known for its high-tech timepieces. A leader in innovative technologies, Citizen<\/a> has truly earned its place amongst the great watchmakers of this century. For those who have not yet had the chance to fall in love with the brand, we present 5 reasons to buy a Citizen watch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Citizen watches are reliable and precise.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The brand employs atomic timekeeping making them amongst the most reliable pieces on the market. Using radio waves, the watch is sent a signal of the precise time, day and date from an atomic clock. In Citizen watches that use this technology, the margin of error is just one second in 100,000 years. This ultimate accuracy makes Citizen’s timepieces perfect for those who value their time above all else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comfort is equally as important, so many of the brand’s watches are made of titanium. The material is 5 times lighter than stainless steel. In their super-titanium watches, Citizen applies a hardening technology to the metal, increasing its scratch-resistance. Titanium is not only hypoallergenic and but also more resistant to corrosion. The resulting timepieces are lightweight, gentle to the skin and comfortable to wear anywhere at any time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
