What’s Happening:
- Citizen is bringing even more Disney magic to their iconic timepieces with newly introduced designs as part of the watchmaking pioneer’s celebration of Disney’s 100th anniversary. This time, they’re turning to some fuzzy creatures to herald Disney’s 2000s era!
- Mickey Mouse is a given when it comes to the Disney100 celebration and the iconic character stars on his own watch with a “retro” look dating back to the early aughts.
- This charming piece incorporates the modern look of Disney’s Mickey Mouse which debuted in the early 2000s TV show, Mickey Mouse Works, while still using touches of Mickey’s old-school design from the 1936 short “Thru the Mirror.”
- This month he’s joined by the master of flavor and haute cuisine, Remy the rat from Ratatouille! The “little chef” is busy at work adding the perfect touch to a bubbling pot of soup. Bon appetit!
- Both watches feature detailed illustrations by Disney artist Jeff Shelly and are sustainably powered by any light with the Citizen’s proprietary Eco-Drive technology and never need a battery.
- Guests will find the timepieces available now directly through Citizen and prices range from $325-$375.
