Citizen make high quality watches, reknowed for both their reliability and their style, which is the reason that they are the ‘Official Timekeeper and the Official Watch of the U.S. Open’. Citizen’s role as an elite sponsor of the event is to ensure that every match is perfectly timed and that every score is quickly shown on large screens after every ball is played. The tennis players at the U.S. Open will all be striving to finish their season on a high as this event is the final Grand Slam of the year. Over the last five years there have been more T.V. Viewers of this competition than of any other tennis tournament in the world. With so many viewers and the top tennis players in the world to please the organisers have to insist that exceptional equipment is used throughout the tournament to create an streamlined experience for everyone involved and to bring out the best in the world class players. Citizen are well equipped to achieve this.

Citizen are the worlds largest watch maker, a position that they have held since 1986. They have made many key technological advances in the world of watches. Citizen made the first dive watch with an electronic depth sensor, proving that they have the necessary know how to combine time keeping and electronic functionality. Their eco-friendly Eco-Drive technology has revolutionised the way that watches are powered. Citizen Eco-Drive watches are powered by light and never need a battery change. They frequently produce cutting edge watches such as the Citizen Gents Perpetual Calendar Watch that needs adjusting only four times in every 400 years and it is powered by light, truly impressive technology!

The high build quality of the watches means that Citizen watches may have the appearance of dress watches but many can also be used during sports. This stainless steel classic gents watch is water resistant to 100m which means that it could be worn scuba diving and yet would not be at all out of place at a formal occasion. Citizen have a long standing relationship with sports men and women from all disciplines. They choose only high flying athletes to be their brand ambassadors including England cricketer Kevin Pietersen who represents the new cutting edge Skyhawk range and Chemmy Alcott, Englands premier female skier who wears the beautiful but tough Citizen Riva watches. Both are ‘unstoppable, just like their Citizen Eco-Drive watches’. Their watches are designed to be unstoppable too, so they come with an unprecedented five year guarantee.  Citizen are effective promoters of sporting excellence across the world, using their prestige to sponsor events and encourage participation. They are the official sponsors of many of the international world figure skating championships.

Watch out for more amazing tennis this year at the U.S. Open which is taking place between August 31st and September the 13th.

You can buy many watches from the esteemed Citizen Eco-drive range here.
