2. Eco-Drive Technology Overview

The Eco-Drive system utilizes a solar cell located under the dial to convert any light source (natural or artificial) into electrical energy. This energy is then stored in a rechargeable power cell, which powers the watch movement. This innovative technology ensures continuous operation without the need for traditional battery changes.
