Benrus Hybrid Electronic Citation Quartz - Gold plated wrist watch This watch features a Swiss electronic movement — a hybrid electro-mechanical design that uses a battery to assist the mechanical motion. It is an analog timepiece with a central seconds hand and day/date display, Swiss made. This model represents an early example of Swiss electronic quartz-electric watch development. The watch is housed in a cushion-shaped case measuring 36.2 mm, featuring a classic design with a base-metal bezel and stainless steel case back. The original silver-tone dial is highlighted by gold baton hour markers, a clear minute/seconds track, and luminous gold hands matching the markers. The dial is signed “Benrus Electronic” at the top and “Citation” at the bottom. The watch is fitted with a handmade black racing-style genuine leather strap. The watch is in good condition and has a new battery installed.
