Citizen BM8476-23EC Eco-Drive 42mm Black Men's Watch

The Citizen BM8476-23EC: black dial and Eco-Drive solar power

Overview

The BM8476-23EC is a classic battery-free Citizen men's watch: its Eco-Drive technology converts light into electricity. To tell the time, the black dial features Arabic numerals and hour markers. No battery to replace, so no used battery to dispose of. The stainless steel case measures 42 mm in diameter.

Case

The black case measures 42 mm in diameter and 11 mm thick; it is crafted from stainless steel. The dial is protected by mineral crystal; a fixed bezel frames it, and the back is sealed with a solid case back. Water resistance is rated at 10 ATM, or 100 m: the watch can accompany its wearer to the pool or for free-diving, but not scuba diving.

Movement

The watch is powered by the E101-00M caliber, an Eco-Drive movement that derives all its energy from light captured by the dial. In addition to the time, the dial displays the date and day. A full charge provides several months of power, even if the watch is no longer exposed to light. The wearer will not be caught off guard: a low-power warning precedes the watch stopping.

Bracelet

Citizen has fitted this case with a bracelet featuring a 22 mm lug width. The watch weighs a total of 67 g. It comes with a 2-year warranty.

Supplied with: Storage box, presentation pad, user manual.
