FOR SALE IS A STRIKING 1964 SEIKO SKYLINER 6220-9960R IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
CASE: SUPER CLEAN AND SHARP LARGE SOLID STEEL CASE MEASURING A HEALTHY 36.4mm NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL CROWN BY 43mm LUG TO LUG. I LOVE THE ANGULAR AND EDGY DESIGN OF THOSE LUGS WITH THOSE SHARP FACETS. THIS ONE MAINTAINS ALL ITS SHARP LINES AND LOOKS PRETTY DAMN FRESH. THIS ONE REALLY DOES WEAR NICE AND MODERN.
DIAL: MAYBE ONE OF THE BEST SEIKO DRESS DIALS I'VE SEEN? LOOK AT ALL THAT DETAIL. NICE SUNBURST SILVER BACKDROP WITH A MATTE BRUSHED RING THAT HOUSES THE PROMINENT STEEL MARKERS. THIS DESIGN REALLY CREATES A NICE SENSE OF DEPTH. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE FONT USED ON THIS ONE AND THAT SUBTLE TOUCH OF BLUE WITH THE "30". NICE CLEAN DAGGER HANDS TIE THE WHOLE THING TOGETHER.
MOVEMENT: THIS GENTLEMAN RUNS ON A 21JEWEL IN-HOUSE SEIKO CAL.6220 MANUAL WINDER. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN, BUT THE WATCH HAS BEEN KEEPING EXCELLENT TIME MONITORED OVER WEEKS OF ON/OFF WEAR
WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A COOL STITCHLESS BLACK PEBBLED LEATHER STRAP WHICH LOOKS SUPER ELEGANT ON THIS GUY. WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS MODEL IS IT COMBINES THE STYLE AND ELEGANCE OF THE EARLY 60s WATCHES IN A PACKAGE THAT WEARS MORE MODERN. YOU JUST CAN'T BEAT 60s SEIKO......OR REALLY SEIKO FROM ANY ERA.
