What is Eco-Drive?
The Eco-Drive is a concept that
introduced us with various technical
modifications over earlier solar-powered
timepieces. These watches include light-
capturing cells that can be made
indirectly concealed behind the dial. The
technical policy that made the Eco-Drive
theory see the light was the Eco-Drive
calibre 7878 movement. This
complication was the first light powered
one where the solar cells could be
seated under the dial. This novelty was
enabled by remarkable developments in
delicate film nebulous silicon solar cells.
This mechanism converts light energy
into electrical energy. This electrical
energy is stocked in a rechargeable
battery.
