Citizen Watches - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

I'll need more information about the watch. WR200 is not the model number. It is the depth in metres it is water resistant to. The serial number is usually engraved on the back plate of the watch. The bit against your skin when you're wearing it. It's the number marked in red in the photo I've attached. Is this a digital watch, a watch with hands or does it have both? Comment below with the serial number and I'll try to help you more.

When was it last factory serviced? Have you tried putting it in bright sunlight for 5 hours to fully charge the internal rechargeable battery. My guess is that the battery is worn out. It needs servicing.Citizen Service CenterCITIZEN WATCH Global Networkhttps://www.citizenwatch-global.com > eng > ans > ser...1000 West 190th Street, Torrance, CA90502-1040 U.S.A..

I had the same issue, and was able to reset it doing the following:

1. I let it recharge for at least a day in bright sunlight
2. I turned the selector to "CHR"
3. I pulled the crown all the way out.
4. I held both buttons down for 5 seconds (don't know if this was what did it.
5. I pushed the crown back in.

It did some funky hand movements stuff and then started off working.

Citizen Watches has a full and a simple instruction manual for the BL5400-52A on the product site: https://www.citizenwatches.com.au/products/bl5400-52a . Look on the right-hand side of the page below the Find a Retailer link. The current link to the Full Instructions is https://www.citizenwatch-global.com/support/pdf/e810/e.pdf I hope this helps.

when it doesnt power on

Adjust time date for eco drive wr100

1. set mode to CHR with the bezel fully in.
2. pull bezel out 2 notches. This will set all (or most) hands to 12.
3.press A (top button) repeatedly until you get MIN in the left window
4.turn the bezel to move the min hand forward.
4a. turn the bezel several clicks in quick sucession to get the minute hand to continue to move in the forward direction. This will "drag" the 24 hr UTC hour hand froward 1 hour per 1 revolution of the minute hand. if the minute hand stops before you want it to repeat step 4a. continue till the 24 hr UTC hour hand points to 24.
5. to stop the minute hand turn the bezel backwards 1 click. remember however to approach the 12 position with the minute hand in a clockwise direction.

Probably because it is gasket sealed. Have a read of this Tip I wrote. https://www.fixya.com/support/r27181038-changing_watch_batteries ..

Not available anywhere. Service Centre repair only. When you do the case gasket, you do the button gaskets at the same time. https://www.google.com/search?q=citizen+AT4010-50E+gasket ..

hi, I'm from Italy and changed the batteries just 2 days ago - theer are three batteries inside this watch - in a normal shop selling citizen watches.....
I think youhave just to change shop....
:-)

Georgi from researching this watch it utilises an eco drive it may have a capacitor that charges up from a light source. rather than a battery if it is not charging up the capacitor may be the problem. https://fixmywatch.co.uk/blog/why-we-dont-offer-a-battery-replacement-on-a-citizen-eco-drive/ the part number may be 295-6700

Do you still have it?

I got last year same problem, easy to resolve :) I was doigng GC and i got my watch in failur exactly like yours. Solution? Buy 4 fresh, alkaline, good brand batteries. Put it in charger unit. Let the watch to charge for 12hours. After do garbage collection again or formatting if you cant do GC. If you got again fail, charge again it for 12 hours. I did it for 3 times and...the third days, I got "Done!" and solved :) It happens when battery is not full charged, so do GC just when is very charged. I love my Cyber, but sicne seems that GC collecting drink a lot of energy seems that low level battery doesnt let the inside flash memory to work well when try to format/GC datas.

is it the battery, batteries are usually always the problem

This problem may be due to your analog hands being improperly zeroed. To find out, try this: 1. Put the watch in chronograph mode by rotating the crowon in its normal position to "chr" 2. Pull out the crown two clicks. This should cause all of the hands to point to zero. If you do this and your minute hand points to 1 o'clock, or five minutes, you will know that this is the problem. If this is the problem, you can can correct it by zeroing the hands as follows: 1. Put the watch in chronograph mode by rotating the crowon in its normal position to "chr" 2. Pull out the crown two clicks. This should cause all of the hands to point to zero, or close to it. You should also notice the letters "HR" in the lefthand digital display. This allows you to move the hour hand by rotating the crown. If the hour hand is not pointing at 12 o'clock, rotate it so that it does. 3. Push the top button once. The letters "MIN" should appear in the lefthand digital display. This allows you to move the minute hand on the large dial, and the minute and hour hands on the small UTC dial. Rotate the crown so that the minute hand points directly to 12 o'clock. 4. Push the top button again. The letters "SEC" should appear in the lefthand digital display. Rotate the crown to point the second hand directly at 12 o'clock. 5. Push the crown back into its normal position. Set the digiatl time and date in your tie zone, and your analog hands should match the digital read-out. If the zeroing of the hands is not the problem, I don't know what is wrong with the watch.

Find their website & they will have a listing for international service centres.

Citizen EcoDrive does not have calibre 2100. This is ordinary quartz calibre and uses battery SR-626W. This battery will last for 2 - 3 years and is not rechargeable.

The point of a radio-controlled watch is that you should not have to move the hands manually. It is meant to respond to a time signal send from various places in the USA, UK, Germany, Japan and (I think) China. The signal's strength varies considerably, depending on where you are located and the ambient temperature. It may need some application and persistence to get the watch synchronized with the signal, this will cause the hands to move to the correct local time - even then it may need correction if you are in a different UTC time zone or on Daylight Saving Time (DST) locally. Not knowing the make complicates the validity of any information. I have found that the sync signal is broadcast on the hour for about five minutes and is best received at night where the signal travels further. Ensure your watch is fully charged and leave your watch by a window overnight for best results. If you still have difficulty, use an internet search to find the nearest broadcast station to where you are and work out which direction-facing window is best sited to face it. I have two RC watches - one Citizen and one Casio. One likes to have the left side of the watch facing the window and the other favours the 12 o'clock facing the window, As I don't know the make of your watch I would recommend trying to place it in various orientations until you find one that works for you. I have found the whole set up performs best in cold air situations - and so are more reliable in the winter. Guessing further, If you bring up the signal display function it may force the watch into signal sync mode - always remembering the 'on the hour' signal broadcasts. You may also find a way of adjusting the hour to suit if it differs for you once it is synced.
