This is a vintage watch from Citizen, purchased in 1970. It has been carefully kept by the family for many years, and is in good condition for a watch that is over 50 years old, and is still in working order. My parents bought me a watch when I was 12 years old, and I wore it when I was younger, but after I started raising children, I stopped wearing watches, so I didn't wear it and kept it in storage for about 40 years. I am putting this item up for sale for the sake of organization.
+ Highlights
Engraving: This is a rare early model of the series that took the world by storm as Japan's first full-fledged waterproof watch.
21-jewel, high-grade specifications: Although it is a ladies' model, it is a high-class line at the time, equipped with a 21-jewel multi-stone movement.
Rare ring bracelet: Replaced with a vintage belt made by a long-established Japanese manufacturer. The mid-century design with a series of round rings is very fresh even in this day and age, and can be worn like an accessory.
+ Detailed specifications
Manufacture date: September 1969 as determined by the back cover serial number
Model number: 4-530195 Y0
Case material: P.G.P gold/palladium alloy plating
Drive: Mechanical manual winding
Condition: Working item. You can also adjust the time and date using the crown.
Belt size: Arm circumference is approx. 15cm
+ Condition
There are some minor scratches on the windshield and case due to aging, but the dial is easy to read and has a great vintage feel.
The belt clasp is also sturdy and can be used for practical purposes.
+ Before Purchasing
As this is an antique item, we cannot expect it to have the same waterproof performance and accuracy as modern watches. This is a vintage item from over 55 years ago, so we recommend overhauling it for daily use. I would be happy if I could give it to a vintage enthusiast who understands this point.
It will be carefully packed and shipped.
