Citizen Independent 1481010 D380 - Gundam Zeon Limited Edition

Today's 1481010 is a type I've shown before, but this is a special edition.
The watch has a D380 module, giving it time, 2 alarms, and a chronograph on it's curved dot matrix LCD screen.
This limited edition was released to mark the 20th anniversary of the Gundam franchise in 1999. Imprinted on the metal strap is a logo showing a Gundam Mobile Suit head with the text "Mobile Suit Gundam Since 1979. Gundam Bigbang Project". Above the display, the watch shows Mobile Suit Gundam. On the front button, instead of the radioactive symbol, is the insignia of the Zeon Forces.

The full model number is D380-L19427, and the watch was made in 1998 (but released in 1999)

Gundam 20th Anniversary Zeon version

Today's watch is a special edition released in 1999 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Gundam franchise.
This particular version shows the symbol of the Principality of Zeon, and shows a picture of an MS-06S Zaku II (Char's Custom?) Commander Type mobile suit on the face.
The watch itself is a limited edition, with only 1979 of them being released. The body of the watch is curved down at the bottom, with foam rubber padded for comfort and fit.
At the moment, I do not know anything on the watch manufacturer, but will update this entry if I find out (and if anyone out there knows something, please contact me!)
