Description

This watch is special because it celebrates Citizen’s 70th anniversary and features the rare C-chan character on the dial. It combines vintage Homer design with playful artwork, making it both collectible and meaningful for Citizen fans and vintage watch collectors.

The dial is clean and playful with the original C-chan character art, giving it a fun vintage look. The case is polished stainless steel and appears well finished, with a clear crystal that shows off the dial nicely. The watch comes on a leather strap that fits the style and makes it easy to wear every day.

Inside the watch is a reliable mechanical movement typical of older Citizen Homers, likely hand-wound with jewels to help smooth the gears and keep good time when serviced. These vintage movements were built to be simple and durable, so many still run well decades later with proper care.

The Homer line goes back to Citizen’s earlier years, and this C-chan version was reissued in 2000 to celebrate Citizen’s 70th anniversary (1930–2000). It celebrates the brand’s long history and adds a collectible twist with the character on the dial, making it special for fans of vintage Citizen watches.
