Description from the seller

Sony WM-DD33 DD Quartz Walkman – Rare silver version – Made in Japan

For sale is a Sony WM-DD33 DD Quartz Walkman in the rare silver color variant.

The WM-DD33 belongs to Sony's sought-after DD series and features the high-quality Quartz Locked Disc Drive mechanism, Dolby B Noise Reduction and Mega Bass. The DD models remain among the most popular and sought-after Walkman models among collectors worldwide.

The device is in cosmetically very nice and well-kept condition with the usual signs of age. Please refer to the photos for the condition. The battery compartment is clean and free from corrosion. Made in Japan.

The Walkman plays cassette tapes, fast forward and rewind work and the controls respond as intended. During operation, the clacking noise typical for many DD models can be heard. This becomes more noticeable and louder especially during fast forward and rewind. The cause is probably the well-known Center Gear, which is not uncommon for devices in this series. Nevertheless, the device is currently fully functional.

A rarely offered silver variant of the legendary DD33 and a beautiful collector's item from Sony's golden Walkman era.
