Talk about a showstopper. This Citizen Leopard 28800 from 1973 is a total knockout, and it’s a perfect example of why vintage Citizen is having a moment. The first thing that hits you is that mesmerizing iridescent purple dial, which shifts from a deep, rich plum to almost black depending on the light. It's perfectly complemented by a rare cut glass crystal that refracts the light in the most amazing ways, making this watch feel like a wearable piece of art.
Underneath all that visual pop, this is a serious timepiece. It's powered by the buttery smooth, 22-jewel Citizen Caliber 7700 automatic movement, which beats at a fast 28,800 bph. The 39mm stainless steel case and integrated bracelet are incredibly sharp, and the watch has been recently serviced to ensure it runs like a dream for years to come. This is a top-tier JDM horology piece that truly represents the best of Citizen's craftsmanship.
This extraordinary watch is offered as a watch-only set on its original bracelet. With its unique aesthetic and recent service history, it's a highly collectible find. For anyone looking for a high beat watch that stands out from the crowd and offers a level of vintage flair you simply can't find in modern pieces, this Leopard is a must-have.
