In 1985, CITIZEN launched AQUALAND (renamed “PROMASTER AQUALAND” in 1989), the world’s first dive watch to incorporate an electronic depth metre. For more than 30 years, we have continued to build on this achievement, developing various dive watches that incorporate sensor technologies for professional use.
Hi, As far as the info you quoted,I am afraid that your battery does not hold charge anymore or charging circuit has a problem and,it does not charge. If I were you I will replace the battery first to see if it will work. If problem continues,then it will be an expensive repair action as next step. It is up to you to make it repaired or to buy a new one since repair sometimes costs almost the same price. Hope this helps!

I got last year same problem, easy to resolve:) I was doigng GC and i got my watch in failur exactly like yours. 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. 400 views 0 helpful votes.

As the watch movements are upgraded and made more sophisticated every year, some of them are discontinued and the next generation movements are replacing them. Watch manufacturing companies usually try to produce interchangeable movements, so, the newer one can replace the older. In your case (if there is no newer version replacement) you have no option, but to shop around for exact new movement for replacement.
All you have to do is to find out your watch's movement number (that Citizen facility in CA should give that) and then shop for it. Plenty of movemevts on ebay, not to mention specialized watch part supplier companies. All available over the internet - just takes some time and nerve. Rate, please. 567 views 1 helpful votes.
When was the last time you left the watch out to charge? EcoDrive watches are basically daylight powered.
It can also use light bulb light to charge as well. My first suggestion would be to place it face up somewhere where it will get plenty of sunshine and leave it to recharge. It might take 3 or 4 days if it has gone totally flat but it will cost you nothing to do this. If this doesn't work I would recommend taking it to a good Citizen dealer and see if the watch can be serviced.
If you have pulled the crown too hard you could have damaged inside the watch. A built in feature on some Citizen watches is the '2 second tick'. If the charge is low the second hand will jump 2 seconds at a time instead of one.
When recharged it goes back to normal. 70 views 0 helpful votes.
