► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is an ultra rare NOS (New Old Stock) Vintage Citizen Vega Digital Calculator Watch, model 9288-390083, produced for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM) in the 1980s. This fascinating piece from Citizen’s Vega series showcases the era’s cutting-edge digital design and functionality, combining a sleek calculator interface with a precision quartz movement.
The watch is in full working condition, and all features and functions operate properly. It retains its original box and hang tag, making it an exceptional collector-grade example rarely found in such complete condition.
While the watch remains in excellent physical condition, it shows very minor signs of storage and handling over the decades. The watch is currently fitted with an aftermarket strap, though the style complements its retro aesthetic nicely. The photos best describe its physical condition.
