► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is an extremely rare vintage Casio Casiotron X-1R R-17 men’s digital sports watch, produced for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM) during the 1970s. Part of Casio’s pioneering Casiotron collection, the X-1R represents an important period in the early development of multifunction digital wristwatches. Introduced during the company’s first decade of watchmaking, this highly collectible model incorporated advanced electronic functions at a time when digital wristwatch technology was still in its infancy. The X-1R R-17 is a particularly rare Casiotron model that seldom comes up for sale, making it an especially desirable piece among collectors of early Japanese digital watches.
The watch is in full working condition, and all features and functions of the watch are working properly.
All parts of the watch are original, including its original Casio stainless steel bracelet. Finding these early Casiotron models with their original matching bracelets is particularly desirable, especially considering their age and increasing scarcity.
The watch is in good vintage physical condition with signs of use and age. The photos best describe its physical condition.
