-
CASE: SEXY AND SOLID ALL STEEL CASE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION MEASURING 36.8mm ACROSS CASE NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL CROWN BY 42.5mm LUG TO LUG. THIS IS A FUN TAKE ON THE ROLEX DATEJUST WITH ITS FLUTED BEZEL BUT WITH A DEFINITIVE SEIKO SPIN. SOME MINOR SCRATCHES AND DINGS BUT ALL THE ORIGINAL FINISHES ARE INTACT. THIS ONE HAS A KILLER WRIST PRESENCE DUE TO THAT THIN BEZEL/WIDE DIAL LAYOUT WHICH MAKES THIS THING WEAR LIKE A DREAM.
-
DIAL: THIS ONE IS SERIOUSLY A LOOKER. FAIRLY SUBTLE IN ITS EXCELLENCE BUT WITH A TON OF GROOVY DESIGN PANACHE. I LOVE THAT DARK BLUE SUNBURST RADIANT DIAL WHICH REALLY IS PHENOMENAL IN ALL LIGHTING CONDITIONS. DIAL IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME MINOR RIPPLING AROUND THE DAY/DATE WINDOW WHICH YOU REALLY HAVE TO BE LOOKING FOR. I LOVE THOSE SIMPLE APPLIED RECTANGULAR MARKERS AT 12/6/9 AND THE ALTERNATING SILVER PAINTED MARKERS WHICH GIVES THIS ONE SOME NICE DEPTH. THE AGED LUME MARKER SQUARES ALSO GIVE THIS ONE A COOL VINTAGE VIBE AND THE COLOR MATCHES PERFECTLY WITH THAT ON THOSE CLEAN DAGGER HANDS. CHECK OUT THAT KANJI DATE WHEEL WHICH IS SUPER FUN!! ALL VIEWED UNDER THE ORIGINAL BOX TOP ACRYLIC CRYSTAL.
-
MOVEMENT: THIS SEIKO RUNS ON A BULLETPROOF SEIKO 6119 AUTOMATIC WHICH IS RUNNING BEAUTIFULLY. THE DATE IS QUICKSET BY PUSHING IN ON THE CROWN REPEATEDLY. THE KANJI DAY IS NON-QUICKSET. THIS ONE WAS SERVICED BACK IN MAY 2019
WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A LUXURIOUS DEEP BROWN LEATHER STRAP WHICH ANCHORS THIS SEIKO TO THE WRIST BEAUTIFULLY. THIS ONE REALLY HAS IT ALL: ROLEX DATEJUST GOOD LOOKS, 60s SEIKO ECCENTRICITY, COOL KANJI DAY WHEEL, AND SUCH A TASTY DARK BLUE DIAL. THIS IS A GREAT ALL-ROUNDER WHICH CAN EASILY GO FROM DRESS WATCH TO EVERYDAY KNOCK-AROUND PIECE.
