Seller's Description
Citizen Seven Star Rally Custom
In a sporty mood? What could be better than a sporty watch? A fully automatic Rally Custom – even two! Around 1969, Citizen added the Rally Custom model to its Seven Star series, featuring a 25-jewel, 52 caliber (18,000 bph) movement with a seconds stop function; this model was designated 5290. In 1970, using the same case but this time with a 25-jewel, 72 caliber (21,600 bph) movement, Citizen added a Rally Custom model to its Custom V2 series. This caliber, also featuring a seconds stop function, is called the 7270. In my experience, these are even rarer than the Seven Star version, and one variant has a very dark blue dial. Although it appears blue in many lights, it reveals its true colors in sunlight.
The watch dial has been professionally restored. There is a small crack in the upper right corner due to its originality. The watch has been preserved in its originality and historical accuracy. It is both a perfect piece for collectors and suitable for daily use. The item will be shipped insured via DHL and delivered within 3-5 days. Please note that customs duties and other fees are the responsibility of the buyer.
