In great condition, this analogue digital Seiko Sports 100 is not a model that you see very often.  Model reference H601-6000.

HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?

From the serial number on the case back we can accurately date this watch to being made in November 1985.  However the SQ clasp has a sweet inscription saying ‘Good luck Bill, from your friends at B.G.S.E April 1987’.

CONDITION

10 years ago people had Seiko 7A28 models sitting unloved in the back of a drawer, and now they are worth good money.  Before that it might have been mechanical Seiko Pogue chronographs.  What were once plentiful and worth little are now valuable and sought after, and the H601-6000 may be the next one to go through that cycle.  Certainly great examples like this will always be sought after.  Most watches fitted with the H601 movement were rectangular and more dress watches, but the Sport 100 is has a rotating bezel showing compass bearings and the all stainless steel case is more rugged.  The bezel has a slight mark at 12, tiny, but worth mentioning for full disclosure. This example appears to have been worn very sparingly – the Hardlex glass has very few, light marks and the clasp, with the inscription from the friend nicely engraved, shows no signs of wear (and couldn’t have been polished to look like that either.)  Everything is working, including the light and the alarm, and you can still get the instructions from Seiko here.  We will install a brand new battery before sending the watch out to the new owner.  The bracelet is quite long, possibly full length and our sister website, SpareLinks.com, may have extra links if required.

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