Especially striking is the exceptionally beautiful, deep blue sunburst dial, which shimmers between dark petrol and light metallic blue depending on the incidence of light – a detail that is rarely preserved in this quality in these models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"572\" data-end=\"889\"\u003eThe clear, functional design with applied indices, day-date display and restrained branding reflects the typical design language of this era. The case with its integrated lugs appears compact yet present on the wrist and wears very comfortably due to its balanced proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"891\" data-end=\"1182\"\u003eParticularly noteworthy is its technical condition: The watch has been fully serviced by a Japanese watchmaker. This eliminates the \"service risk\" usually associated with vintage watches immediately after purchase – a significant added value that also clearly translates economically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1184\" data-end=\"1431\"\u003eThe original Citizen steel bracelet is preserved and harmonizes with the case. The age-related stretch is typical for these bracelets, but it does not impair function or wearing comfort and, on the contrary, is an indication of originality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1433\" data-end=\"1600\"\u003eThe bilingual day-date display (including Japanese) underlines the JDM character of this watch and makes it particularly interesting for collectors of Japanese models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1607\" data-end=\"1627\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1607\" data-end=\"1627\"\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1629\" data-end=\"2184\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"wgnwxw\" data-start=\"1629\" data-end=\"1647\"\u003eBrand: Citizen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1rm3vbe\" data-start=\"1648\" data-end=\"1673\"\u003eModel: Seven Star V2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1hq29l2\" data-start=\"1674\" data-end=\"1699\"\u003eReference: 4-385144 TA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"hipiip\" data-start=\"1700\" data-end=\"1730\"\u003eMovement: Automatic, 21 Jewels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"hiw2xo\" data-start=\"1731\" data-end=\"1812\"\u003eFunctions: Hour, Minute, Second, Day-Date (bilingual, incl.
