Citizen Independent 1481010 5351 Special Edition D420

Day 3 of the 4 day LED watch electronic festival marathon!
Today's choice is a special edition within the Citizen Independent 1481010 line of watches. The 1481010 range was aimed at ping fashionable people, had many collaborations with clothing brands. More can be found on this range at my overview page (link).

This one was a special edition for Harajuku (Tokyo) based 5351 Pour Les Hommes. The brand is a male clothing brand which is under the umbrella company of Abahouse and one of the most expensive under that group! Their designs are sexy and fashionable without being overbearing, using sober colours, leather, blacks and greys.

The design of this watch fits their profile. It has a huge padded black leather strap, sewn in segments, and two foam sections between the watch head and your wrist.

The watch itself is a D420 GSD module with LED display. It is similar to the leather strapped versions under the normal 1481010 range, but much much bigger! Apart from that it uses the normal abacus method of time display - each row is a number (you count the number of lights and a red light in the first column is 5). You can set it to a sequential digit display too!

The full model number is D420-L19931, and this edition was released in 1999.
