Concept
The precise time. Anywhere in the world.
The ideal system for precise timekeeping is CITIZEN’s Satellite Wave GPS, which uses GPS satellite signals to automatically update your watch with the correct date and time. It operates anywhere in the world under an open sky. Powered by CITIZEN's Eco-Drive light technology, it ensures you never need a battery change while always maintaining accuracy. This innovative system keeps your watch synchronized with global time standards. CITIZEN continues to push boundaries, aiming for universal access to precise timekeeping. GPS stands for Global Positioning System.
Satellite Wave GPS
Whole-earth coverage
CITIZEN Satellite Wave GPS has coverage in 38 of the world's time zones.* It receives position data and a time signal from GPS satellites orbiting the Earth at an altitude of 20,000 kilometres to display the correct time for your precise location, wherever you are. Out in the desert, on a snowy mountain top, or out at sea, you can get the correct current time for that specific location.
* GPS is an acronym for Global Positioning System
* Time zone coverage varies by model.

The precise time, however far you travel
Imagine driving across vast continents like Australia or the United States, crossing multiple time zones. With CITIZEN's Satellite Wave GPS, your watch automatically syncs to GPS satellites at the press of a button. It receives position data and a time signal to determine your current time zone and adjusts the time accordingly. Even when moving through different zones, you can rely on your watch to display the correct local time. This cutting-edge technology provides confidence and accuracy wherever you travel. GPS stands for Global Positioning System. Position data takes at least 30 seconds to acquire.

Precise time, anytime, fast.
CITIZEN Satellite Wave GPS models offer exceptional timekeeping accuracy of ±5 seconds per month, reflecting CITIZEN's commitment to precise time without the need for adjustments. In 2015, CITIZEN became the first watchmaker to achieve a time signal reception as fast as three seconds. This innovative system allows you to reset the time anytime under an open sky, syncing with GPS satellites for instant accuracy. Experience the thrill of real-time synchronization with cutting-edge technology, providing reliable, precise timekeeping wherever you are. GPS stands for Global Positioning System.
Satellite Wave GPS
Satellite signal reception technology
This technology captures position data and a time signal from GPS satellites orbiting the earth at an altitude of 20,000 kilometres to automatically correct the time and date of your watch. To synchronise your watch, all you need to do is go outside where there are no buildings or trees obstructing the satellite signals, point the dial of your watch towards the sky, and perform the manual operation.
