► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is a new old stock (NOS) rare vintage Alba Flap Duck men’s sports watch, reference Y113-6120, from the 1990s. Produced exclusively for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM), this unique collaboration between Seiko’s Alba brand and the Canadian outdoor retailer Flap Duck delivered a rugged and highly collectible timepiece built for outdoor use. The watch is in full working condition, with all features and functions operating properly. Notably, it features a kanji day-date calendar display, adding to its authenticity as a true JDM release. All parts of the watch are original, including the stainless steel case, signed OUT LIFE nylon strap and buckle, and it even comes with its original hangtag—a rarely seen detail that enhances its collectability. Cosmetically, the watch is in fantastic condition, showing only light marks on the case back from past battery changes. Otherwise, it remains virtually untouched, consistent with its NOS status. Please review the photos carefully, as they best describe its physical condition.

► ARCHIVE FILE: ALBA — BRAND HISTORY

Alba is Seiko's other answer to the 1970s upheaval it had itself created. Seiko launched the brand in 1979 as a youth-oriented value line, a name taken from the word for dawn, slotted beneath Seiko proper just as Pulsar, acquired in 1978, served the same role in export markets. Alba watches were designed and built within the Seiko group, using its quartz calibers and factories, but were sold almost exclusively in Japan and Southeast Asia, which is why most of the world has never seen one in a shop window.
