Mini Story:

A genuine piece from the early quartz revolution, this Citizen Day-Date (Ref. 4-711513) dates to around 1980 — a pivotal period when Japanese watchmakers reshaped the global industry with precision quartz technology.

Powered by Citizen’s reliable Calibre 7115, this watch represents the transition from mechanical to quartz dominance, combining accuracy with the emerging minimalist aesthetic of the late 1970s.

The integrated steel case and original mesh bracelet reflect the era’s design language — clean, functional, and now highly collectable. These early quartz Citizens are increasingly appreciated by collectors as authentic artifacts from the “golden age of Japanese innovation.”

A wearable vintage timepiece with both historical relevance and understated style.
