Citizen FE1240-81L Watch

The Watch

The iconic Japanese brand, a pioneer in lighting technology, introduces one of its latest creations: the FE1240-81L. Citizen adds this women's model to the Elegance collection. The watch's round stainless steel case features a brushed finish and a fixed polished bezel. A crown at three o'clock makes it easy to set the hours and minutes. At 29.4mm in diameter and 8mm thick, it's perfectly sized for the female wrist. Its versatile style makes it ideal for everyday wear. The dial is protected by mineral glass, known for its shock resistance, and a snap-back case that ensures 3 ATM water resistance. You'll need to remove the watch before any water-based activities.

The Dial

Citizen equips the Elegance watch with a round dial featuring a royal blue sunray effect. The chic aesthetic is enhanced by the hypnotic reflections the watch casts when lit. For contrast, two two-tone hands and a slim seconds hand in light colors take center stage. They display hours, minutes, and seconds. The elegant touch comes from the interplay of rhinestone indexes and Roman numerals for easy time reading. A date window at the 3 o'clock position adds precision, while the brand's signature in thin black letters beneath twelve o'clock lends an industrial edge.

The Movement

A solar quartz movement powers this Citizen creation. The brand's Eco-Drive technology - recognized by watchmakers as a breakthrough innovation - was developed by Citizen in 1976. It harnesses solar energy even in low-light conditions and keeps running for months, even in complete darkness, delivering a power reserve of up to 6 months without any light exposure. The bottom line: Eco-Drive eliminates the hassle and cost of regular battery replacements.

The Bracelet

The 14mm lug width is complemented by a stunning stainless steel bracelet whose three-link design alternates between brushed and polished finishes, giving the watch a business-chic look. A push-button deployment clasp makes fastening and removing the watch effortless. This versatile timepiece promises durability and everyday comfort.

Water Resistance

With 3 ATM water resistance (equivalent to 30 meters), this watch is not designed for water activities. You can wear it while washing your hands or doing light household tasks involving water, but the Ocarat team strongly recommends leaving it on your nightstand before showering or bathing - and in the hotel safe before heading to the pool or the turquoise waters of your vacation destination.
