Citizen Partners With Marvel for Commemorative ‘Spider-Man’ and ‘Avengers’ Watches
Featuring colorful graphics of the franchises’ namesake characters.
Citizen is continuing to celebrate Disney’s 100th anniversary with a new partnership with Marvel. The Japanese watch company and Marvel have debuted two new watches paying homage to a few of the company’s most-acclaimed franchises.
First among the offerings is the Spider-Man Watch, a tribute to the titular character, who most recently appeared in this year’s animated flick, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. The timepiece features a blue dial with a graphic of Spider-Man in a crouching pose overlaid with a delicate web design. On the back of the silver-tone case is an etching of his distinct mask.
The Avengers watch, meanwhile, comes as part of Citizen’s Marvel’s Avengers: Beyond Earth’s Mightiest 60th Anniversary Box Set. The stainless steel watch comes with a face colorfully printed with the Avengers squad consisting of Captain Marvel, Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Black Panther and Black Widow. A small “60” at the top of the face not only provides the time but serves as a nod to the franchise’s 60th anniversary. In addition to the watch, the set includes two collectible pins.
Both watches contain stainless steel bands, shatter-resistant faces and come powered by Citizen’s Eco-Drive technology, which uses and light source to power the watch, eliminating the need for a battery.
Available on the Citizen store now, the Spider-Man Watch retails for $350 USD, while the Avengers Box Set goes for $450 USD.
In other watch news, Luminox unveiled three new military-inspired Navy Seal 3000 Evo timepieces.
