Description

Women's wristwatch by Citizen, Exceed model, with analog display. This model features a light-colored round dial, with "EXCEED" at the top and "CITIZEN" at the bottom, both perfectly legible. The hour markers are thin and minimalist, complemented by Arabic numerals at the 12, 3, 6, and 9 positions. The hands are classic in style, including a second hand, minute hand, and hour hand, all matching the dial color.

The rounded case is paired with a wide-link bracelet visible in the photo, with a brushed and polished metallic finish. The overall aesthetic is understated and elegant, typical of Citizen watches from past decades, with a timeless design suitable for daily wear or dressy occasions.

The dial offers optimal readability, with a domed or flat crystal (difficult to determine visually) and a slightly thick bezel. The metallic bracelet, visibly aged, shows signs of superficial wear and oxidation on several links, enhancing the piece's vintage character.

The watch as a whole displays a classic, no-frills style, suitable for those looking for a vintage piece from a renowned Japanese brand. The setting crown is positioned at 3 o'clock, with no particular visible decoration.

This watch is battery-powered (quartz), as indicated in the keywords, but the battery needs to be replaced (non-functional upon delivery).
