Citizen Manual Wind - Black Dial (1965)

Description: Citizen manual wind from 1965, a workhorse dress watch from the era when Japanese watchmaking was proving itself on the global stage. 17-jewel manual movement, clean & reliable. Black dial with applied baton indices in white, simple typography, minimal fuss. Stainless steel round case with a squared-off lug design typical of mid-60s Citizen aesthetics. Approximately 36mm. Original black leather strap with cream canvas backing. Acrylic crystal. Water resistant to the era's standards. Case shows appropriate patina from 60 years of wear, caseback marked with period-correct production details.

Story of This Watch: This is the kind of watch that just works. No complications, no drama, no need for constant attention. It's been fully serviced & runs strong, which is genuinely hard to find with pieces this old. The dial & case have that honest wear you can't fake, but everything that matters is solid. If you want something that has actually lived a life instead of just looking like it has, this is it.
