- Original Marvel Artwork: Citizen has teamed up with comic artist Adam Kubert to create a custom embossed dial featuring Spider-Man swinging over the New York City skyline.
- Stealth Construction: The timepiece drops bright pop-art colors in favor of a moody, monochrome 43mm gray ion-plated stainless steel case and bracelet.
- Light-Powered Hardware: Built on Citizen’s Eco-Drive J810 caliber, the watch converts any light source into continuous energy without ever needing a battery change.
- Fan-Focused Easter Eggs: Features 3D fully luminous webbing on the dial, a “THWIP”-engraved caseback, 100 meters of water resistance and an included collectible pin.
Spider-Man week means it’s time to cop some new bling. Citizen is taking a surprisingly subtle approach to its latest superhero collaboration. The new Citizen Spider-Man Swings timepiece puts Marvel’s flagship wall-crawler on the wrist, but trades loud primary colors for a sophisticated, dark monochrome finish.
Rather than relying on flat digital prints, however, the brand brought in veteran Marvel comic artist Adam Kubert to design original artwork directly for the dial. The result is an embossed scene showing Spider-Man mid-flight above a detailed New York City skyline, bringing real dimensional texture to the watch face.

Technical Specs and Fan-Focused Details
While the gray ion-plated stainless steel 43mm case gives the watch a rugged, understated aesthetic on the wrist, the dial comes alive under low-light conditions thanks to specialized luminous treatments:
- Luminous 3D Webbing: Spider-Man’s web-lines use raised, glow-in-the-dark compound that pops off the dial when the lights drop.
- THWIP Caseback Engraving: Flipping the watch over reveals a custom caseback featuring the iconic sound effect from Spidey’s web-shooters.
- Utility & Resistance: Guarded by mineral crystal, the face includes a date window at 3 o’clock and 100 meters (10 bar) of water resistance.
Solar Tech Meets Collector Appeal

Under the hood, Citizen’s proprietary Eco-Drive J810 movement drives the three-hand layout. Because the internal cell recharges under both natural sunlight and artificial indoor lighting, wearers never have to worry about replacing a battery or setting time after weeks off the wrist.
To round out the release, each watch ships in custom Marvel packaging alongside a matching collectible lapel pin. Orders are available now via Citizen’s official online store, with physical shipping beginning on July 29.
