Citizen Perpetual Calendar Appraisal

Citizen Eco-Drive Radio-Controlled Perpetual Calendar Chronograph World Time Watch

The item is a Citizen Eco-Drive radio-controlled perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch, featuring a striking blue and silver color scheme. The watch possesses a multi-layered dial in varying shades of blue, with a textured inner circle and sub-dials that add depth. The main dial displays the 'CITIZEN' logo prominently at the 12 o'clock position and 'Eco-Drive' below it, indicating its solar-powered movement. There are three sub-dials: one for day of the week ('SU' currently visible), another for a 24-hour display, and a third for date indication (showing odd numbers only from 1 to 31). The watch features a world time function with city codes printed on a white outer chapter ring, including cities like LON (London), PAR (Paris), ATH (Athens), RUH (Riyadh), DXB (Dubai), KHI (Karachi), DAC (Dhaka), BKK (Bangkok), TYO (Tokyo), BJS (Beijing), SYD (Sydney), HOU (Houston), AKL (Auckland), MDY (Midway), FEN (Feni), and RIO (Rio de Janeiro). The hour markers are silver-toned rectangular indices, and the hands are silver-toned with luminescence. The bezel is fluted and silver-toned, with some visible wear and minor scuffs, particularly between the 2 and 3 o'clock positions and around the 11 and 12 o'clock positions. The watch case and integrated bracelet are constructed from polished stainless steel, exhibiting typical signs of wear such as light scratches and smudges consistent with regular use. The bracelet features a multi-link design, contributing to its sophisticated appearance. Overall, the watch appears to be in good, used condition with a clear crystal, but does show some cosmetic wear on the bezel and bracelet. The craftsmanship appears to be of good industrial quality, typical of Citizen watches, known for their precision and durability.
