What is Eco-Drive?

• The Eco-Drive is a concept that introduced us
  with various technical modifications over earlier
  solar-powered timepieces. These watches include
  light-capturing cells that can be made indirectly
  concealed behind the dial. The technical policy
  that made the Eco-Drive theory see the light was
  the Eco-Drive calibre 7878 movement. This
  complication was the first light powered one
  where the solar cells could be seated under the
  dial. This novelty was enabled by remarkable
  developments in delicate film nebulous silicon
  solar cells. This mechanism converts light energy
  into electrical energy. This electrical energy is
  stocked in a rechargeable battery.

Citizen Eco-Drive BL5403-03X- The versatile watch
for men
This magnetic timepiece from the Eco-Drive
collection of Citizen has been created with the
help of functions like 24-hour indicator, alarm,
chronograph and others. The 24-hour indicator
watch is that type of watch that has an hour hand
completing a revolution in every 24 hours. This
kind of watch is specifically beneficial for
aviators, space explorers, military personnel and
others. This type of watch can be classified in
two ways a) noon at the top and midnight at the
bottom, b) rotated 180 degree with midnight at
the top and noon at the bottom. The alarm
function is made to alert an individual or group
of people at prior-set time. The basic property
of it is to awaken people from their sleep. Most
alarm-enabled watches emit sound or light. Some
have sensors to track a persons sleep stage. A
chronograph is a type of watch that is used as a
stopwatch fused with a display watch. Basically,
a chronograph watch contains a several hands to
gauge seconds, minutes, hours and even tenths of
a second.

Here are the processes that show how Citizen
Eco-Drive watches function

• Changes any light into energy-
• The Eco-Drive watches are constructed in a way so
  that they can transform both natural and
  artificial light into energy that charges them.
  In addition to it, they do not need any battery
  substitution, charging or convolution to maintain
  consistent running.

Powers even in pale light-
Eco-Drive watches are made in such a way that
they can produce the energy needed from any type
of light source, no matter how faint it is. Light
is the lone source of energy that is necessary to
keep the time with an Eco-Drive watch.

Remains powered up to six months even in darkness-
The thing that makes Eco-Drive watches different
than others is that they can keep on their
performance even without getting charged for a
time period of six months. It remains entirely
powered even in full darkness. The hands stop
ticking to save energy in darkness. Whenever
light hits the watch, the hands move frequently
and naturally to show the correct time.
