How Do Eco Drive Watches Work?

Eco drive watches is another step towards living a life, which is on a balance with nature. These watches were first developed and manufactured by the Citizen Watch Company, and they proved to be a major hit because of their unique and eco friendly design. Eco drive watches are powered, not by batteries, but by any light source. The best advantage is that it does not matter if the light source is natural or artificial. As a result, the power of these watches is replenished continuously. Eco drive watches are also available in a variety of styles and designs, with the same type of quartz movement in other watches that are powered by other methods. The main components that drive the power in eco drive watches are the energy cell and the solar conversion panel. These are made of amorphous silicon, which captures the energy, from the light source that enters through the watch crystal and dial, and converts it to electrical power. The power is then stored in the energy cell, to run the watch. To know more on how the eco drive watches work read the article given below.
