Vintage Citizen Quartz WR50 Men’s Sport Watch | Black Sunburst Dial | Late 1990s
Built tough and wearing it well. This Citizen Quartz WR50 from the late 1990s brings serious presence to the wrist — a bold black sunburst dial ringed by large luminous capsule markers, housed in a sculpted case with organic-shaped integrated bracelet links that are pure late-90s design language. The lume actually works. It’s the kind of watch that gets noticed.
