CITIZEN L / EM1060-87N
The gently curving lines of the case combine with lustrous mother-of-pearl dial, inspired by the delicate beauty of May bells. A diamond at the 8 o’clock position brings to mind a single glistening raindrop on one of the plant’s bell-shaped flowers, and the limpid blue crown provides a stylish accent.
The EM1060-87N and EM1063-89D models also have four diamonds at the 3 o’clock position　on the case, giving the watches a glamorous, jewelry-like look.
Just like the flowers that are their inspiration, each model evokes feelings of joy and happiness every time you look at your wrist.
Since 2016, CITIZEN L has continued to provide sustainable watches with elegant designs that reflect the beauty of our planet while upholding the brand’s commitment to caring for both people and the environment. All models are equipped with light-powered Eco-Drive*1, eliminating the need for regular battery changes, and reducing the environmental impact caused by waste batteries. CITIZEN L models use sustainable materials wherever possible as part of the brand’s efforts to produce sustainable watches that incorporate care for people and the planet.

Collaboration between CITIZEN L and Salt Payatas – hand-embroidered pouch
Salt Payatas Foundation, a non-profit organisation, through its flagship program Likha Pangkabuyahan, provides women in Payatas (formerly the largest dumpsite in the Philippines) with the opportunity to earn a living by making and selling embroidery products rather than collecting garbage. CITIZEN and Salt Payatas, both organisations which are focused on working towards a happier world, collaborated to make this pouch. The goal is to enable women to earn a stable income in a safe environment while acquiring skills and self-confidence. A share of the profits goes to maintaining libraries, providing livelihood opportunities to mothers, educational support for children, and upcoming new projects. Each individually handsewn by the women of Payatas, these pouches are an expression of our desire for you to be truly happy by sharing love and joy with the people who matter most in your life.
