Citizen Two-Tone Quartz Ladies Bracelet Watch - A two-tone ladies wristwatch featuring a quartz movement. The round dial is designed with a silver-toned sunburst outer ring and a white center, marked CITIZEN QUARTZ in black print below the twelve o'clock position. The dial is set with twelve luminous baton hour markers and three gold-tone hands with luminous inserts. Fine black printed text at the bottom of the dial reads JAPAN MOVT N-5930-N26641-KA. The watch case is constructed from base metal with a gold-tone bezel and a stainless steel case back. The case back is stamped with several lines of text: CITIZEN WATCH CO., WATER RESIST, BASE METAL PDPG, 5930-S41959 HSB, 140661, GN-0-S, a small arrow symbol pointing to the number 5, and MOV'T JAPAN. The watch is fitted with a matching two-tone bracelet composed of five-row links with gold-tone plating on the central row. The fold-over clasp is stamped on the interior CITIZEN, ST STEEL, and CHINA. An arrow symbol is stamped on the underside of several links to indicate the direction for pin removal. This timepiece needs a battery. The total length of the watch is approximately 7 inches as measured against a scale. The watch is in used condition with significant cosmetic wear. There are numerous fine scratches visible on the crystal (photo 2). The gold-tone plating on the bezel and the central links of the bracelet shows heavy scuffing and notable loss of finish, revealing the base metal underneath (photo 1, photo 4). There is accumulated grime and debris within the crevices of the bracelet links and around the case back (photo 9). The metal surfaces show general scratches and abrasions throughout consistent with regular use. The watch is currently non-functional and requires a battery replacement.
