PERLA --Two spectacular natural phenomena – the fleeting green light of a sunset and polar auroras – energize the design and craftsmanship of two rare and awe-inspiring limited-editions from the ATTESA collection: Power of Green Flash and Power of Purple Aurora. Drawing on Citizen’s 50 years of light-powered movement expertise, the models feature technological style expressions including structural color film, which creates various hues and expressions when light reflects microscopic structures within the ink layer. The Power of Green Flash harnesses vapor deposition, a design application where dial material is converted into vapor and deposited onto a surface, creating a finish that evokes the dramatic light of a green flash.


Their dynamic piercing green and brilliant purple hues complement the qualities prized by ATTESA enthusiasts, including Super Titanium construction, distinctive DURATECT colorways, and Satellite Wave GPS precision. The aesthetic compositions are achieved because they are powered by any light–natural or artificial–with Citizen’s proprietary Eco-Drive technology, developed in 1976 and celebrating 50 years of innovation in 2026.


Both models are equipped with Citizen’s F950 movement, the ultimate movement for any light powered Eco-Drive satellite wave GPS watch. The movement is capable of receiving time signals in as little as 3 seconds – world-class speed for GPS satellite signal reception. No matter where you are in the world, this watch will always show the correct time. They are also equipped with Double Direct Flight which allows the user to switch between local and overseas time displays with two simple steps.


For a closer look at both limited-edition models, visit Citizen’s ATTESA showcase at WatchTime New York from October 16-18.


Power of Green Flash (CC4084-83Z)
Green flash is an extremely rare phenomenon that occurs when the sun disappears below the horizon. This momentary flash of brilliant emerald green light was the inspiration for the design of this model.
Product Features
•    Green structural color film on the bottom layer of the dial that produces countless beautiful hues in response to light refracting and reflecting off the dial. The inkjet printed black layer on top of the film expresses the green flash as it gleams above the horizon for a few moments after the sun sets.
•    The sapphire bezel ring is the first time that vapor deposition technology has been used to create a dark green color on an ATTESA watch. Vapor deposition is applied to the lines radiating from the center of the dial to express countless rays of green light spreading out toward the inner edge of the bezel, creating a unique and distinctive look.
•    The indices and the frame of the date window are finished in a stylish yellow gold color that harmonizes beautifully with the green colors on the dial. The bezel is finished with DURATECT Amber Yellow.


Power of Purple Aurora (CC4085-81Z)
Purple aurora is an extremely rare astronomical phenomenon that creates a breathtakingly beautiful purple color in the night sky at low altitude. The striking purple color can be seen in the night sky in polar regions when particles from the Sun collide with the Earth’s atmosphere.


Product Features
•    Raised printing on the black dial expresses shimmering light in the darkness of the night sky. The sub-dials feature structural color film that changes color depending on the angle of the light, producing purple and blue hues that mirror the beauty of the purple aurora.
•    The colors on the sapphire bezel ring that shift from purple to blue were created using vapor deposition, and the city names are finished with vapor deposition technology in an appealing pink gold color. These design features allow the wearer to enjoy the combination of the shifting colors and the gleaming gold-colored accents on the dial.


•    The indices and the frame of the date window are finished in a stylish pink gold color that accents the purple hues on the dial. The bezel is finished with DURATECT Pink.
