FAQs
How long does the Eco-Drive battery last?
Eco-Drive technology does not use a conventional battery that needs replacement. It uses a light-powered cell that can last for many years under normal usage and charging conditions. The watch's power reserve indicates how long it will run when fully charged and kept in darkness.
What kind of light should I use to charge the watch?
Any light source can charge the watch, but natural sunlight is the most efficient. Indoor artificial lighting will also charge the watch, though it may take longer.
How can I tell if the watch is fully charged?
The watch will typically have a power reserve indicator or simply indicate that it is running optimally. Refer to your specific model's manual for details on how to check the charge level. A full charge ensures the longest power reserve in darkness.
Is the mineral crystal scratch-resistant?
The mineral crystal is durable but can be scratched. While it offers good clarity, it is less resistant to scratches than sapphire crystal. Handle the watch with care to avoid direct contact with abrasive surfaces.
Can I wear this watch swimming?
The water resistance rating varies by model. Please check the case back or the official product specifications for the exact water resistance level of the EG7120-51A and consult the manual for guidelines on water exposure.
What is the warranty for this watch?
Citizen typically offers a limited warranty on their watches. Please refer to the warranty card included with your purchase or the official Citizen website for details specific to the EG7120-51A model.
Troubleshooting
Watch has stopped or is losing time.
Expose the watch to a strong light source (natural or artificial) for several hours to allow it to recharge. If the issue persists after a full charge, consult the user manual or contact customer support.
The date is not changing correctly.
Ensure the watch is fully charged. Follow the instructions in the user manual to set the date correctly, paying attention to AM/PM to avoid setting it on the wrong day.
The bracelet feels loose or tight.
The stainless steel bracelet can typically be adjusted by a jeweler or watch repair professional to ensure a comfortable fit.
