CONDITION
Vintage Seiko watches just seem to become more and more collectible. They have the advantage of having reliable movements, good sized solid stainless steel cases, and genuine horological pedigree that has only been enhanced since 1968. The DX added a few extras – higher jewel count and hacking being the most noticeable. This watch has an anthracite dial that is all in good condition, including the patterned inner rehaut. The movement is Seiko’s caliber 6106A and has 25 jewels, quickset date and hacking, but on this watch the quickset is not working correctly. The day and date does change at midnight correctly, and the day wheel is in English only. This is shown in the video, and the price reflects this. This movement is automatic wind only, and as is can not be hand wound does suit a more active person. The leather strap is new, and could be swapped for a different colour if preferred.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
