Citizen has used washi for dials on The Citizen before, but usually in a low-key white. But the mechanics are cutting edge in contrast – a solar-powered quartz movement accurate to within five seconds a year.Ĭitizen’s ultra-accurate quartz watches are largely unknown outside of Japan, but that is gradually changing with the global rollout of new models, which are crucially dressed in eye-catching colours instead of the muted dials historically found on these watches. The Citizen Iconic Nature Collection is a quartet of lightweight titanium watches featuring dials made of traditional, translucent Japanese paper dyed in vivid, natural colours. The latest high-end quartz model, however, is being launched globally. Long available only to the Japanese domestic market, Citizen’s top-of-the-line quartz watches have been slowly making their way into foreign countries in recent years (although last year’s high-end mechanical Caliber 0200 was launched internationally).
