Rare Vintage Citizen Independent Flip Top Men’s Dress Watch JDM 1990s

Up for sale is an extremely rare vintage Citizen Independent flip-top men’s dress watch from the 1990s, produced for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM), reference 1032-003324-02. This highly distinctive model is part of Citizen’s Independent line and features a unique hinged flip-top case design that conceals and reveals the dial, making it a standout and unconventional dress watch from the era. The watch is in full working condition, and all features and functions of the watch are working properly. The dial is especially striking, featuring a very uncommon two-tone appearance with black and subtle brownish-red tones that shift depending on lighting. All parts of the watch itself are original. The bracelet shows age consistent with the watch and matches it extremely well; however, there are no visible Citizen markings on the bracelet, so its originality cannot be stated with certainty. It may very well be the original band, but this cannot be confirmed. The watch shows signs of use and age consistent with a vintage piece. The photos best describe its physical condition and should be reviewed carefully.
