RARE Alba ZIC NX04-0A20 World Time, a striking analog-digital watch by Seiko's ZIC line that combines a running analog hour and minute hand with a full LCD digital display and an animated world map graphic. The rotating stainless bezel is marked FORWARD, ALBA and REVERSE for stepping through time zones, and the case is finished in brushed and polished stainless steel with a matching stainless bracelet on a fold-over clasp with micro-adjustment holes. A bold, technical-looking piece for collectors of Seiko-family ana-digi watches or anyone who wants a distinctive combination of analog hands and digital function in one case.
Features include a running analog time display with a red pointer hand, a digital LCD showing hours, minutes and running seconds along with day-of-week, a World Time mode with an animated map graphic, an alarm (ALM) mode, a LIGHT function, and a MODE pusher alongside FORWARD/REVERSE zone-adjustment pushers on the case — all demonstrated cycling in the listing video. The dial is marked "zic WORLD TIME" and the module reference NX04-0A24, and the caseback is stamped ALBA 0N1070, WATER RESISTANT 10BAR, ST. STEEL, and case reference NX04-0A20. The case measures approximately 39.5mm wide (excluding crown/pushers) and approximately 12.5mm thick per calipers, and the stainless steel bracelet closes to a loop of approximately 6 to 6 1/4 inches per the sizing gauge photo, with additional micro-adjustment available at the clasp holes; please refer to the sizing photos for reference.

This Alba ZIC shows light, honest wear consistent with careful use. The LCD is fully legible with crisp digits and a clean world map graphic, the analog hands sit true and track smoothly with the digital seconds, and the rotating bezel turns with a firm, even action. No cracks are visible in the crystal, and the fold-over clasp opens and closes securely.
The watch powers on and the functions demonstrated in the listing video worked during my brief test. This is not a guarantee of continued operation. Accuracy, water resistance, alarm volume, illumination, seals, battery life and long-term reliability have not been professionally tested. Scratches, plating wear and age-related deterioration are visible in the close-up photographs. Please review every photograph before purchasing.
