Global Solar Watch Market 2023-2030

Last Updated:  Apr 25, 2025 | Study Period: 2023-2030

GLOBAL SOLAR WATCH MARKET

 

INTRODUCTION

A solar-powered watch, also known as a light-powered watch, is one that is powered entirely or partially by a solar cell.A solar watch is essentially a regular quartz watch that is powered by the sun.

 

Most solar watches now have solar cells beneath the dial, allowing the dial to be as good as any other watch. Solar watches have a very simple working mechanism. The only difference between it and a standard quartz watch is the additional solar power generation.

 

Solar cells above or beneath the dial absorb light (natural or artificial) and convert it to electrical energy. This is known as the photovoltaic effect, and it is why solar cells are also referred to as photovoltaic cells (or short as PV cells).

 

After that, electrical energy will be stored in a rechargeable battery with an over charging cut-off function. From here, the watch operates similarly to a standard quartz watch.

NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH

For decades, Seiko Solar and Citizen Eco-Drive watches have competed in the solar watch market. Casio's Tough Solar is also very popular, particularly in its G-Shock tactical watch line. In recent years, some newer competitors have entered the market.

 

Chronograph Citizen Corso Eco-Drive ,It has a clean dial with a sunray design in dark blue that changes into different shades with the reflection of light, matched with a stainless steel case and bracelet. A sapphire crystal protects the dial window from glares and scratches.

 

With its 5-month power reserve solar-powered feature, this Japanese quartz watch provides precise timekeeping as well as a chronograph, tachymeter, and date display.

 

Solios specialises in producing elegant minimalist solar watches. The Canadian watch company makes its timepieces as environmentally friendly as possible, allowing them to become the first B Corp certified watch company. Furthermore, Solios has pledged to protect one acre of rainforest for every watch sold.

 

The Garmin Instinct Solar is a smartwatch that goes above and beyond. It still has military-grade toughness, but it also has longer battery life, bolder designs, higher contrast displays, and two new activity-specific editions: the Instinct Solar - Surf Edition and the Instinct Solar - Tactical Edition.

 

You can train smarter and record your activities more accurately with these editions. Another notable addition is the Pulse Ox2 sensor, which can determine the wearer's oxygen absorption and body temperature.
