Nor many here are quartz fan...
.. but Eco-Drive is something interesting and different from Quartz in that it doesn't need battery change so often. And it is amazing that Eco-Drive can do so much with its energy - another difference from standard quartz watch, IMVHO

BaselWorld 2013: CITIZEN Novelties show to the public in Tokyo
This is CITIZEN's first attempt to use its Design Center near Harajuku as the public view venue for the 2013 Novelties. I was invited on the press day and captured some interesting new products. 1. Venue: CITIZEN Design Center: As always, not many people ...
Very Cool Report :-)
A Very Nice Presentation by Citizen, they make amazing watches which are great value for money, the Series 8 Eco Drive Radio Wave is a handsome watch, hopefully they will consider introducing it in Super Titanium. S
