The Citizen E168 watch is often water-resistant, but the level of resistance varies by model. Check the water resistance rating on the watch case or manual. Typically, a rating of 100 meters or more is suitable for swimming. Always ensure the crown is secured before exposure to water.
Replacing the battery in a Citizen E168 watch should be done by a professional to avoid damaging the watch. Take it to an authorized Citizen service center to ensure the correct battery type is used and the water resistance is maintained.
Eco-Drive technology in Citizen E168 watches uses solar energy to power the watch, eliminating the need for regular battery replacements. The watch can charge using any light source and can run for months in darkness once fully charged.
