After pioneering Japan's first calendar (1952), shock-resistant watch (1956), alarm wristwatch (1958), and water-resistant watch (1959), Citizen took an unexpected leap: combining a diver with an alarm complication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is the rarely seen Citizen Alarm Date Diver that combines tool-watch toughness with a uniquely playful complication. Its ultra-glossy black dial, mirror-like bezel insert, and vivid red alarm hand create a look that's unmistakably vintage yet incredibly striking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday's example is an exceptionally rare export variant, Ref. 4-310012Y, appearing for the first time as a true deadstock piece, complete with its original bracelet and the JWCII quality-control sticker still intact. Used from 1954 to 1991, the JWCII mark was applied to Japan's high-precision products, from watches to cameras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe export model itself is scarcely documented, likely due to extremely limited production. How this piece resurfaced in Japan is a story of its own, but what's certain is that it stands as yet another testament to Citizen's enduring mastery in diver design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShips from Tokyo, Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition report\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, this Alarm Date is in immaculate unused condition.
