Citizen Titanium

Citizen Titanium – A Bold Men's Watch Built to Endure

Citizen's Super Titanium collection embodies a construction of exceptional resilience and durability, engineered to perform even under the most demanding conditions. The extraordinary hardness of the material, combined with its remarkable wearing comfort, makes this refined timepiece the ideal companion for the discerning gentleman. Over decades, Citizen has firmly established itself as a hallmark of horological excellence, captivating enthusiasts with ingenious technology and sophisticated design. Beyond its distinctive titanium watches, the manufacture is equally celebrated for its Edifice technology and the professional dive watches of the Promaster series. The challenge of achieving an even harder, more scratch-resistant surface was met by the Japanese watchmaker with masterful precision – a result born equally from the intrinsic qualities of this precious material and the complex craftsmanship required to work it.

While stainless steel ranks among the most durable and long-lasting materials in watchmaking, Super Titanium surpasses it with a surface hardness five times greater. This extraordinary resilience is achieved through ion plating technology: by subjecting the material to a concentrated beam of electrons, it reaches an ionised state, which is then applied to the case surface as a protective coating. Beyond its toughness, titanium impresses with its remarkably low weight, tipping the scales at just 55 percent of an equivalent stainless steel case. Every model in the Super Titanium collection is further fitted with premium sapphire crystal, shielding the movement and dial from the rigours of daily wear.

The Heritage of Citizen Watches

Founded in 1930, Citizen is a manufacture deeply rooted in tradition, with a distinguished history spanning nearly a century. Since 1965, the company has maintained a presence in Germany, with the Hanseatic city of Hamburg serving as its German headquarters. That same year marked Citizen's successful entry into the world of automatic watches – a milestone that would bring the brand international recognition.

The origins of Super Titanium technology, however, reach as far back as 1960. The material captured widespread attention in the era of the first lunar missions, igniting the innovative spirit of Citizen's engineers. By 1970, the manufacture had unveiled the world's first titanium wristwatch. After a further 17 years of intensive material research, Citizen ultimately introduced the Super Titanium to the world.

Eco-Drive Solar Technology

The solar technology found across much of the Citizen collection is known as Eco-Drive. What sets this intelligent, patented system apart is its complete independence from conventional batteries. Instead, the watch is powered entirely by solar energy – requiring nothing more than exposure to natural daylight or any artificial light source. An integrated solar cell captures light and converts it into stored energy. When paired with Wave Ceptor technology, as is the case with select models, these solar-powered timepieces also function as precision radio-controlled watches.

Eco-Drive Titanium

Just as Citizen's clientele is diverse, so too is the breadth of the Super Titanium collection. Alongside its flagship models, the Japanese manufacture offers a refined range of Eco-Drive titanium watches. These radio-controlled timepieces, featuring titanium cases and matching titanium bracelets, impress with an array of additional functions including a solar cell, chronograph, world time display, date indication and more. The Promaster Sky Eco-Drive radio-controlled titanium watches deserve particular mention as a true centrepiece of the collection. These are refined pilot's watches – classical in aesthetic and firmly positioned within the luxury segment.

Super Titanium Chronograph

Citizen also offers a compelling range of high-performance chronographs crafted from the same robust Super Titanium. Significantly harder than steel yet dramatically lighter, these timepieces are further enhanced by the renowned Eco-Drive technology, which delivers a power reserve of up to 210 days. Additional features include luminous hands and indices as well as a stopwatch function. The chronographic display of this exclusive wristwatch is presented in a distinguished shade of blue, housing a quartz movement celebrated for its outstanding precision. A robustly constructed case, water resistance to 10 bar, and a full titanium bracelet complete this exceptional package.
