Rare Vintage Citizen 7400 Multi-zone Radio Controlled Beautiful As Photo What makes this specific watch so rare is that it is the "Silver Model"! 【Model】7400-C70004 KA. The battery was replaced about a year and half ago, and the calendar function operates via the button at the top left. (I may withdraw the listing before it ends if there are no bids.)This is an extremely rare timepiece from Citizen—Japan's first-ever multi-station radio-controlled watch.It features a distinctive design with a prominent coil antenna positioned right in the center of the dial, making it a highly valuable collector's item.Originally exhibited at the 1992 Basel Fair, this model was produced with little regard for cost—using components that were largely handmade—to elevate Citizen's corporate image. Consequently, only 4,300 units were sold worldwide (300 in Japan and 4,000 in Europe), making it a truly rare find.What makes this specific watch so rare is that it is the "Silver Model"!Since it was 1992—during the tail end of Japan's economic bubble—only gold and two-tone (silver/gold) models were sold domestically; the silver version was sold exclusively in Europe.I acquired this piece from a German radio-controlled watch collector after persistently asking them, paying a very high price (around 4000USD!) to secure it.(Germany is home to many radio-controlled watch collectors, as it is the home of Junghans, the manufacturer of the world's first radio-controlled watch.)The battery was replaced about a year and half ago, and the calendar function operates via the button at the top left.【Brand】CITIZEN【Model】7400-C70004 KA【Type】Men's Quartz Watch【Color】Silver (Dial: White-toned)【Condition】Relatively clean condition with no noticeable scratches or stains.This is a highly unusual watch with an eye-catching, unique design. It often sparks conversation when worn during business meetings. I am offering it to someone who appreciates its rarity.Thank you for your interest.
