Citizen Quartz Watch – Tony Gwynn Personal Timepiece
Gold-tone Citizen Quartz wristwatch with white dial, day/date display, and matching gold band, personally owned by Tony Gwynn.
Description
Known for his timeless consistency on the field, Tony Gwynn also carried that sensibility into his personal style. This Citizen Quartz wristwatch, with its gold-tone finish and sleek white face, was one of Gwynn’s personal accessories. The dial features minimalist stick indices and a day/date window at 3 o’clock, while the band and case reflect the polished gold look popular in the late 20th century. Marked “Seven” on the dial, this model is a nod to Citizen’s reliable quartz movement, which emphasized accuracy and everyday practicality. As a personal possession, this watch speaks to Gwynn’s understated approach—function and reliability over flash, even as he became one of baseball’s brightest stars. For collectors, it’s a tangible piece that bridges his Hall of Fame career with the daily life of the man behind the legend.
