The new Eco-Drive Racing Chronograph models in the PROMASTER LAND line from CITIZEN, will make an ideal gift for outdoors and motorsport loving man this Eid.

CITIZEN’s PROMASTER brand has long enjoyed high regard among professionals for durability, functionality, and ultimately a capacity to capture the imagination of users around the globe. These new models are full-fledged chronograph watches combining analog and digital functions.

This new Eco-Drive Racing Chronograph features both analog and digital displays. The analog display makes it easy to read time, while the digital display delivers a number of advanced functions. The most exciting function of this watch is its ability to measure up to 1/1,000 of a second (displayed digitally), which is an important unit of measure in motor sports. Once the course distance has been input in Racing Mode, the watch can measure average speed and top speed for circuit use. Measurements of 1/10 and 1/100 of a second are shown in analog style. Users will be fascinated watching the 1/10 and 1/100 second chronograph hands turn with lightning speed and the futuristic functions on the digital display. World Time function also shows the time in 43 cities quickly on the digital display. All these various functions are controlled by the “U700” movement, CITIZEN’s industry-leading chronograph movement that manages both analog and digital technologies with the highest performance. The watch design is inspired by the aggressiveness of motor sports and the exquisite toughness of a racing car.

CITIZEN’s proprietary Eco-Drive* technology can generate power from any light source— artificial, natural and even dim light—to keep watches running without ever replacing batteries. CITIZEN Eco-Drive products are the first in the watch industry in Japan to be certified by the Eco Mark environmental program.
