Citizen Independent 1481010 Round Dial - Red 1030 module

Today I'm wearing a watch with a similar module to yesterday's, but from an earlier range of watches.
This watch is one of the Citizen Independent 1481010 range which was sold in the late 90s to early 2000s as a collection of fashionable designs for young people. The range was the forerunner to the current Citizen Independent range (which yesterday's watch came from). If you want to know more about the 1481010 watches, check out my overview page for the full scoop (link).

This model is a round dial watch with 3-hands. It uses a Japanese 1030 module, which looks almost identical to yesterday's 1032 module.

The design is quite plain compared to most of the 1481010s, but it is incredibly shiny! The strap is a metal mesh band, and is different to the metal link strap found in other variations of this design.

The full model number is 1030-L16266, and the catalogue number is IT21-4044B. It was sold between 1997 and 1998 (it wasn't in the 1999 catalogue) for 12,000 yen, with this watch being made in 1997.
