Overall Condition This Citizen Nippon Express is offered in authentic, original condition, with all of its original components intact. The white dial is very clean for its age and has very little visible blemishes. The case retains its sharply defined edges. The case back has a few scratches, but all the engravings remain distinct and sharp.

This Citizen is a special commissioned piece rather than a standard production watch. It features “Nippon Express Co. Ltd” (日本通運株式会社) on the dial in place of the usual Citizen logo, as it was commissioned by Nippon Express as a long‑service award for employees and this example was presented in Showa 42 (1967).

The watch is powered by a 17‑jewel automatic movement and retains its sharp, unpolished case lines, original signed crown with the Citizen logo, and a caseback engraved in kanji.

Key features:

  • Rare dial variant of a vintage Citizen automatic wristwatch.
  • “Nippon Express Co. Ltd” printing in place of the Citizen logo on the dial.
  • Original signed crown and engraved caseback.
    • 永年勤続表彰 | 昭和42年 | 日本通運 株式会社
  • sharp case with cyclops date magnifier
  • Quick set date feature
