The Citizen Fio Roma EG2799-18W takes its name and its lines from classic Roman form — a rectangular rose gold-tone stainless steel case with softly rounded edges, measuring just 17.3 by 24.5mm and a remarkable 5.4mm thin. It's designed to read as jewellery first and a watch second.
The sunray dial carries printed Roman numerals and a classic two-hand display — no seconds hand, nothing to clutter it. The sunray finish shifts as light moves across it, picking up warmth from the rose gold case surrounding it. A slightly oversized cabochon-set crown — a polished, domed stone rather than a plain metal grip — adds a deliberate point of contrast.
Inside is Caliber G620, Citizen's smallest Eco-Drive movement, which is precisely what allows the case to be this compact and this slim. It runs on any light source, natural or artificial, and never needs a battery. Mineral crystal protects the dial, and an embossed grey calf leather strap with a pin buckle completes it.

Why You'll Love It
- At 5.4mm thick this is exceptionally slim — it slides under a sleeve without catching and sits flat on the wrist, which is only possible because of the compact movement inside.
- Caliber G620 is Citizen's smallest Eco-Drive movement. The engineering achievement is what makes the proportions possible: solar power in a case this size is genuinely difficult.
- The rectangular case with rounded edges is a deliberate vintage reference, and a real point of difference in a market dominated by round watches.
- Printed Roman numerals and a two-hand display keep the dial clean and unhurried — no seconds hand ticking away, nothing competing for attention.
- The sunray finish shifts as light moves across the dial, picking up warmth from the rose gold-tone case around it.
- A cabochon-set crown — a polished, domed stone rather than plain metal — is jewellery detailing on a component most watches treat as purely functional.
- No battery, ever. Eco-Drive converts any light, natural or artificial, into the energy that runs the watch, so there's no dead-battery surprise and no replacement visit.
- The embossed grey leather strap is an unusual and considered choice — softer than black, warmer against rose gold than a cool grey metal bracelet would be.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "Fio Roma" mean?
It's the collection name. Citizen describes the Fio Roma as inspired by the elegance of classic Roman form — which is reflected in both the rectangular case shape and the printed Roman numerals on the dial.
Why is this watch so thin?
It uses Caliber G620, Citizen's smallest Eco-Drive movement. Fitting light-powered technology into a case this compact is genuinely difficult, and the small movement is what allows a 5.4mm profile.
What is a cabochon crown?
A cabochon is a stone that's polished and domed rather than cut with facets. Here it's set into the crown — the winding knob on the side of the case — turning a purely functional part into a piece of jewellery detailing.
Does it have a seconds hand?
No. The dial uses just two hands, for hours and minutes. It's a deliberate minimalist choice that keeps the Roman numerals and sunray finish uncluttered.
What is Eco-Drive?
Eco-Drive is Citizen's light-powered movement technology. A cell beneath the dial converts any light source — sunlight, a lamp, an overhead office light — into energy stored in a rechargeable cell, so the watch never needs a battery.
Do I need to charge it deliberately?
No. Normal daily wear provides more than enough light to keep it charged. If it has been stored in the dark for an extended period, a few hours in daylight brings it back, and an Insufficient Charge Warning alerts you before the reserve runs out.
Can I wear this in water?
Only incidentally. At 30 metres (3 BAR) it handles rain and accidental splashes, but it isn't rated for swimming, showering or bathing — and the leather strap shouldn't be submerged in any case.
Will this fit a small wrist?
Yes — this is one of the most petite watches in Citizen's range. At 17.3mm across and 5.4mm thin, it's designed to wear delicately and suits smaller wrists particularly well.
Can the strap be replaced?
Yes. The leather strap can be adjusted or replaced as needed. City Chain offers leather strap adjustment at any store — bring your warranty book along for the service.

The EG2799-18W comes with a 3-year warranty when purchased from City Chain Singapore, an authorised Citizen retailer. Keep your warranty card and proof of purchase — both are required when submitting the watch for service at any City Chain outlet.
