This New Old Stock (NOS) watch arrives with a fresh battery and is ready to wear, delivering a classic silhouette that pairs seamlessly with both formal attire and casual ensembles.

Why this watch matters in today’s market

• Unlike many modern recreations, this Citizen CQ Tank delivers true vintage character through its gold-tone rectangle silhouette and 24 mm footprint, a size that’s increasingly hard to find in new collections.
• New-old-stock provenance combined with a fresh battery offers the best of both worlds: authentic design and reliable operation without the guesswork of restoration.
• The absence of box and papers emphasizes its storied past while the overall condition and function reflect careful storage and subsequent use.

Care, tips, and maintenance

• Avoid submerging the watch in water—it's not water resistant. If cleaning is needed, wipe gently with a soft cloth and keep away from moisture.
• For longevity, have the battery checked or replaced by a professional if timekeeping becomes inconsistent.
• Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to minimize further surface wear on the polished gold-tone finish.
• Handle with care to preserve the vintage luster of the gold-tone bracelet and case.
