Up for sale is a rare vintage Alba Sports digital alarm chronograph watch, reference Y799-5020, produced for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM) in the 1980s. This model embodies the retro charm and durability Alba was known for, featuring alarm and chronograph functions in a sleek digital design.
The watch is in full working condition, and all features and functions are operating properly. It comes with its original hang tag, a rare bonus for collectors.
The watch head itself is in mint physical condition, showing virtually no signs of wear. The stainless steel bracelet has a scuff near one of the lugs, but aside from that remains in excellent physical condition. Please note, I am not certain if the bracelet is original, as I do not see any Alba markings; it may be aftermarket. The photos provide the best description of its actual physical condition and should be reviewed closely.

► ARCHIVE FILE: ALBA — BRAND HISTORY
Alba is Seiko's other answer to the 1970s upheaval it had itself created. Seiko launched the brand in 1979 as a youth-oriented value line, a name taken from the word for dawn, slotted beneath Seiko proper just as Pulsar, acquired in 1978, served the same role in export markets. Alba watches were designed and built within the Seiko group, using its quartz calibers and factories, but were sold almost exclusively in Japan and Southeast Asia, which is why most of the world has never seen one in a shop window.
