Up for sale is an extremely rare vintage Citizen “The Memory of Reversion Okinawa” commemorative men’s manual wind watch, reference number 6700-673310, produced in 1972 to commemorate the reversion of Okinawa to Japan. Following World War II, Okinawa remained under United States administration for nearly three decades, and in 1972 it was formally returned to Japanese sovereignty. This watch was issued to mark that historically significant moment.
This special edition features a beautifully engraved dial and caseback motif and is housed in a solid .920 silver case, making it a highly desirable historical and collectible Citizen timepiece.
The watch is being sold for parts and repair. It runs but does not hold accurate time and will require servicing to function properly. No guarantees are made regarding timekeeping accuracy until serviced.
All parts of the watch are original. The watch does not come with a strap, but all other components are original to the watch.
The watch is in fantastic overall physical condition, showing only light signs of use. It appears to have been lightly worn and still retains part of its original protective caseback wrapping, which is rarely seen. The photos best describe its physical condition and should be reviewed carefully.
