With a lovely deep grey dial, this Seiko DX also has the advantage of a long original bracelet.  Model reference 6106-6003.

HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?

From the serial number on the case back we can accurately date this watch to being made in January 1970.

CONDITION

The DX line were a grade above the standard models.  So instead of 17 jewels, you got 25.  You also got a hacking feature for precise time setting, and visually they made the watch look a little more flash with an internal fluted bezel.  The 6106C movement also has quick set day and date, which are adjusted by pushing the crown inwards (light push for the date, deep push to change both.)  The day can be set to either English or French.  The C shaped case gives you very strong lugs and the crown is flush as you won’t need it often – these are automatic wind only and can not be hand wound.  The crystal has a crack in the side but it isn’t moving and is only visible at certain angles.  The bracelet is quite long and our sister website, SpareLinks.com, may have extra links if required.  The bracelet has been cleaned in our ultrasonic bath, and one link in near the watch head has been replaced in the past, which we point out in the video.

This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
