The starring role
in manufacture.

The CITIZEN story began over a century ago in a modest workshop and research centre. The spirit of craftsmanship nurtured in those days has been transmitted down to the present day unchanged. Individual precision parts crafted at multiple factories are assembled to make a single watch. That is what being a manufacture means. Here is a list of all the factories in Japan where CITIZEN manufactures watches and parts.
