The section that offers a high number of functions is the digital one and in this technology there are many tricks of know-how accumulated by the two Japanese brands. The battery or solar theme does not support comparison, Citizen is far ahead of the Swiss with solar watches that can be up to 7 years without receiving light and do not lose time. Also a Martian Apple watch would be interesting. But Apple doesn’t lose focus with these small-time adventures

I find the technology developed by the German company Morgenwerk for its M3-1 watch very interesting. Powering a caliber very similar to that of this Omega with a battery that you will never have to change in your entire life, with an energy-delivery period of 3 months and a useful life of close to 100 years, is very suitable for a watch that has to make the long journey to the Red Planet.
