    congratulations
    looks beautiful, I am not sure whether or not this one was made before or after sony WM-504 was made. If this one was made in 1986 then GRUNDIG is the first company to make a clear cassette lid model.

    Just had a look on Hifi Archive at the Grundig catalogues and the Beat-Boy 120 first appears in the 83/84 edition.

    It's lovely to see such boxed models, even more in this case with such a rare and beautiful one. Great acquisition for your collection. :thumbup:

    That's a lovely looking walkman. Love the clear door on it. Very nice indeed.
