A Timeless Collaboration with Citizen and Disney
Originally published at Disney Parks News
This past weekend, we turned our clocks back one hour as Daylight Saving time began once again. You may have caught the team at “Good Morning America” resetting the Main Street, U.S.A. clock at Magic Kingdom Park on-air with a little help from our friends at Citizen! We thought, in the spirit of time, who better to spotlight than The Official Timepiece of Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort.
Founded in 1918, Citizen has been keeping their fans on time for over 100 years. And, since 2018, Citizen has been helping our guests make the most out of their Disney vacations. If you’re like me, then every trip to Walt Disney World Resort begins at Magic Kingdom Park with a photo of Cinderella Castle and the Citizen Clock on Main Street, U.S.A. Recently, it got an EARidiscent makeover in honor of the World’s Most Magical Celebration— signaling to our guests that it’s time to make new memories! Fans of our attractions can also find Citizen clocks on select Lighting Lane entrances across Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort! And since no trip to Walt Disney World Resort is complete without a show or two, you’ll want to grab a times guide the next time you enter one of our parks—all brought to you by our friends at Citizen.
Speaking of the Walt Disney World Resort 50th anniversary celebration, you may have seen the Citizen Countdown Clock on the official Walt Disney World website every day (or every hour, maybe?) leading up to Oct. 1, but have you seen the amazing Walt Disney World Resort 50th anniversary celebration-inspired collection of watches? With the celebration ticking away, you’ll definitely want to pick up one of these limited-time-only timepieces at Walt Disney World Resort! With Citizen Eco-Drive, powered by light, you’ll be able to wear your favorite Disney character on your wrist, like my personal favorite Mickey, for celebrations to come!
While you’re at it, be sure to check out Citizen’s upcoming in-park event at Walt Disney World Resort. On Nov. 19 and 20 at Uptown Jewelers in Magic Kingdom Park and on Dec. 10 and 11 in Ever After at Disney Springs, guests can purchase a Citizen timepiece and receive a limited-time-only Main Street Clock Holiday Ornament to take a timepiece of magic back home with them!
