Citizen Auto Dater Para Water 19 Jewel Automatic

Vintage Citizen Auto Dater automatic featuring a clean silver textured dial, gold tone indices, and classic dual window day and date display. Powered by a 19 jewel automatic movement, this model reflects Citizen’s push toward durable everyday mechanical watches during the golden age of Japanese watchmaking. The gold tone case and bracelet pairing give the watch a warm mid century appearance, while the “Para Water” marking highlights Citizen’s early water resistance technology from the era. The crystal shows visible wear and scratching consistent with age, adding honest vintage character to the piece. Tiny mechanical calendar machine from the optimistic period when companies named water resistance systems like they were preparing for undersea exploration missions.
