I'm trying to find out the model number (and photo) of a very old Sony mobile I used to own.
It was launched about 1993, had no screen!! and you pressed a catch near the top to release the flip down mic. At the time it was one of the smallest phones on the market
Have tried Google but without any luck, also tried a few old links here but no joy. Have tried for months on and off to find it.
Below is a photo of the Sony cmd Z1 which may jog your memory. The phone i'm looking for is almost identical minus the screen, and it came out before this model
Please please please help..........! |

I remember that phone  Can't for the life of me remember the name though, sorry. They had a mars bar shaped one out at the same time I beleive?
10 years from now I would probably recognise most mobile phones from today. So sad I know !!

Thankyou !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thats the one,
The photo shown is with the optional aerial that gave better reception, i'm sure it was included in the box
Now just for the model number |

Yeah its the aeriel, the standard one was very small, just like the Motorola V series, but you could unscrew it and attach the large aeriel pictured above. I remember it making no difference to the signal, which was afaik 3 flashing lights, green(strong), orange(med) and red(weak)
Just remembered that the attached aeriel above is in the closed position, when you answered a call or were in a weak signal area, the manual advised that you pulled it up (2 stage) which made it even longer !

Is is a GSM mobile or is it analogue? If its GSM then I might bid for it myself.
