Sony - WM-31/32/41 Walkman

This Sony Walkman WM-31 stereo cassette player was manufactured in the early 1980s, around 1981–1982, in Japan and belongs to the early generation of portable Walkmans that put Sony on the map worldwide. The model is compact, finished in a striking blue housing and is known for its simple, functional design without unnecessary luxury.

The WM-31 runs on two 1.5-volt AA batteries and weighs about 190 grams excluding batteries, making it highly portable for its time. The device is equipped with a stereo headphone jack and is intended for playing standard compact cassettes. As is customary with Walkmans from this period, the controls and construction are entirely mechanical in nature.

This specimen is in used vintage condition with visible signs of wear appropriate to its age and previous use. The housing is intact and the original model and production markings are clearly legible. No accessories included. The device is offered as vintage electronics, with the photos forming part of the description and guiding the state.
