This is a two way statement. On one hand, it certifies the brand and the type as the most technologically advanced (which isn’t always the case); on the other, it points to a list of a certain type by the brand that we may agree to be the most technologically advanced. Whichever way you look at it, the following will help you pick one for which you’ll have no regret.

These are again divided into three tiers. The first one is $2000 and above (e.g. CC1054-56E and CC1075-05E; next, between $1000 and $1999 (the JW0104-51E and JW0100-51E are hot choices here) and the last one under $1000 (this is a vast arena and every watch has a story) but these are more than an average smart watch although at the same price point. With an unbeatable accuracy and features. Whether you are into flying or into two-martini lunches, you are going to find the most technologically advanced citizen chronograph watches meeting your demands.

Their journey towards modernization motivated the timekeeping society to expect more; throw challenges and Citizen came out with flying colors. They have proved getting more for a less price is highly possible, without compromising on materials and/or built. Some of their timekeeping arts are quite peculiar if compared to standard watch models; it shows innovative technology and stylish designs can blend well together.

But what’s there exactly to call certain Citizen chronographs as the most technologically advanced? Let’s see:

• Eco-Drive: This is obviously a no-brainer; Eco-Drive and Citizen has become synonymous nowadays. In plain English, the watch makes its own food...sorry, power – from the ambient light around it. So be it a flicker from the candle, cold neon or the warm sun; there’s no stopping in its power conversion. But it’s always better to rest a machine sometimes; which you will give it anyway every night when you turn the lights off. Free from the fear of a burnout?

• Radio Control: Citizen creates the ultimate companion for the man who likes going places. If you are into city or maybe even continent-hopping, these next generation timepiece technology is going to blow your hats off! The mechanism within automatically receives standard-time radio waves (from Japan, USA, Germany and China) that correct the time automatically according to the region you are in. Those with world time function like the AT8020-03L and the Citizen eco drive radio controlled watch and though not a chronograph, the BL8001-58L/BL8000-54L will be the ultimate companion for the frequent flyer.

• Perpetual calender: This frees you from the embarrassment of taking a glance to the watch and telling the wrong day/date. This fully automatic calendar adjusts at the end of eevery month, even leap years and they are programmed to do it till February 28, 2100.

• Water resistance: Yes, let’s talk about the Promaster Depth Meter or the Promaster Aqualand now! Anybody into water sports shall find these unputdownable, whether on land or under the water. You can stay worry-free till 200m.

The greatest of all? Perhaps the Citizen eco drive chronograph if you want the most technologically advanced Citizen chronograph without burning a hole in your pocket.
