Up for sale is a rare vintage Alba Jogging Alarm Chrono W304-4010 men’s digital sports watch from the 1980s, produced exclusively for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM). This early digital sports model was designed for runners and fitness enthusiasts, featuring a pace signal function and stopwatch specifically tailored for jogging performance tracking. The watch is in full working condition, and all features and functions operate properly — including timekeeping, alarm, chronograph, and pace signal.

The watch is in good physical condition overall, showing signs of use and age consistent with its vintage nature. The black and yellow color scheme remains vibrant and captures the sporty design language of Alba’s 1980s digital era.

► ARCHIVE FILE: ALBA — BRAND HISTORY

Seiko launched Alba in 1979 as an affordable, youth-focused brand for Japan and other Asian markets. Its playful 1980s ana-digi watches, 1990s Spoon models, and other short-lived experiments made it a home for ideas too unconventional for the Seiko name—and now make original Alba watches especially appealing to JDM collectors.
