► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is a rare vintage Casio SDB-500W “Lap Memory 30” men’s digital sports watch, a Japan Domestic Market (JDM) model from the 1980s powered by Module 863. This model is well known for its advanced stopwatch and lap memory functionality, and this example is especially desirable due to its very rare yellow colorway, which is seldom seen today.
The watch is mostly functional, with the digital display, timekeeping, buttons, and primary operations working properly. Please note that the sound function is not working. The case has a small chip on the front, which is purely cosmetic and does not affect the band, wearability, or any functional aspect of the watch.
The watch is fitted with an aftermarket strap for comfortable wear. It shows signs of use and age consistent with an authentic vintage sports watch, and the photos best describe its physical condition.
