A 1987 Citizen Forma, cushion case and Roman numeral dial
The steel case, in a cushion shape, measures 33mm wide, 6mm thick and 37.5mm Lug-to-lug. A gold-plated bezel follows its contour and frames the dial; the gold-plated crown echoes this bezel. The lugs take the bracelet with a 19mm Lug width. The caseback is steel.
The white dial bears twelve black Roman numerals on a railway minute track that follows the cushion shape of the case, around a plain centre. The Forma signature occupies the top of the dial, the Citizen mention the bottom. The black hands and gold-tone centre seconds hand stand out clearly against this light background. The dial and hands are original.
Forma is a line of dress watches by Citizen, with a flat case. This piece is powered by the Citizen 4630 calibre, a quartz movement with centre seconds; the serial number engraved on the caseback places production in October 1987.
The watch has retained its original bracelet, in steel punctuated with gold-plated links, and its Buckle folding clasp; it adjusts up to a wrist of around 17.5cm. At 33mm wide and 6mm thick, it can be worn on a man's wrist as well as a feminine wrist, and slips under a cuff.
