Concept:

Manufactured in the 1960s~ King Seiko was considered as their top tier product and internal competitor of Grand Seiko. These top tier Seiko were created as the answer towards the Swiss Watch Industry and Seiko's bridge into the international market. With the ultra-accurate Chronometer rating movements that got Seiko a champion in the Swiss Chronometer Competition, a mirror-finished case with unique design and the master craftsman to build the durable timeless classic, these all add up to create the best vintage dress watch in Japan.

This 4402-8000 KS was the second King Seiko model to adopt Seiko's Grammar of Design. The two-dimensional faceted curves bezels and a 37mm mirror-finished case paired with the sword hand that proved to be the inspiration of today's Grand Seiko series.Β The cap gold case is extremely mint and shows that the watch has been well preserved for the past 50 years.

The case back was fitted with a mint gold medallion with King Seiko Shield stamped on the back. The overall condition of the watch is Epic!

These all add up to create one of the best-looking watches Seiko has ever made.

Why not go for a bit of fancy and match this gold Seiko with your favorite tailor suit.

Vintage Watch | Seiko Sportsmatic 5 6619-8090

$370.00 USD Save $-370.00 USD
/

Concept:

The Seiko Sportsmatic story dated back to 1963. The year where Seiko introduced the first Sportsmatic 5. Sportsmatic 5 is targeted to set a new standard in affordableΒ price mechanical watches with combining the innovation of automatic movement, 3 bar water resistance and same level day-date display window. Seiko is so proud of their invention of the β€˜Magic Lever’ technology, the designers made the crown of the watch smaller and hid it under the lip of the case at 4 o’clock, giving Seiko 5 its signature look. TheΒ β€˜Magic Lever’ technology means thatΒ the movement can be winded with the rotor in bothΒ directionsΒ to increase efficiency and the wearer rarely needs to use the crown. The unique case design and technology used are still continuing in all the Seiko 5 series watches we found today.
So the watch is named as 5, but what does it mean? The 5 is actually Seiko's 5 principalΒ attributes for the watch series.
1. Durable case and bracelet with the diashock technology
2. Watch CorwnΒ at 4 o'clock
3. Automatic winding,
4. day/date indication, and
5. Water-resistant.

This particularΒ example theΒ 6619-8090 manufactured in the 1960sΒ was fitted with a smooth lug case, the shape of the case blends in the crown of the watch into part of the case. Besides, the date changing mechanism of the movement is rather special. To change the date of the watch, you can press the crown of the watch. Due to the complex mechanical movement, it is a rare find this particular example in such a nice condition.

The sword hand used in this Sportsmatic inspired the designer of later generation Grand Seiko and also the black date wheel on the watch added the modern feeling to the watch. Just by looking at it at your first glance, you would not have beliveΒ this watch is already 50 years old.Β 

It's a rare chance to such a mint example from the market, so grab it before you lose it.

Vintage Watch | Lord Matic 5606-6060T

$295.00 USD Save $-295.00 USD
/

Concept:

The Seiko Lord Matic, the successor of Seiko's famous Lord Marvel Line. Most watch geeks may heard about theΒ Lord Marvel 36000 fitted with the 5740C (36,000bph) movement in the Lord Marvel and its special place in the JDM market as the firstΒ pukka high beat watch.

Seiko issued the Lord Matic line hoping to continue the legacy of Lord Marvel. This is an extremely high expectation to a new line of watches, but thanks to the design genius in Seiko, they did it!Β 

Seiko launched the Lord Matic line in 1968, fitting all LM models with aΒ sophisticatedΒ 56 series movementΒ and high-quality case design and finishing. The watch that used to be one notch below King Seiko line haveΒ taken off in market demand, and its movement, the 5606 have become one of the most ubiquitous Seiko mechanical movements of the time.

This special new movement has also formedΒ the basis of higher beat variants fitted to many of the automatic King Seiko and Grand Seiko models of the early to mid-1970’s. So the success of 56 series King and Grand Seikos is thanks to the technical development of the Lord Matic 5606 movement.Β 

Lord Matic are issued in many variances of dial and case configuration, this specific Lord Matic 5606-6060T we are offering is fitted with silverΒ sunburst dial and a flat straight lug with the design adopting the Seiko Grammer of Design and reminds you of the design of the King Seikos back in the 70s. The case is mirrorΒ finished and well preserved. The silver and black hour marker match with the set of mirror-finishedΒ  silver and black hands.Β 

The watch size is best for your weekday tailor suit and your weekend sweater and jeans.

If you need an entry to the deep vintage Seiko world, this will be the perfect watch to start your wonderful adventure.

Vintage Watch | Seiko 6309-7040 Turtle (Original bezel aged to a dark grey finishing)

Concept:

If a watch earns its nickname because of its distinct features, I am sure it is a special watch that worth all watch collector's attention. Selected as one of the most common watches for servicemen back in Vietname war, the Seiko 6309-7040/9 is a perfect definition of a tool watch. It's as rugged and hard wearing as it is aesthetically satisfying. Even as the first "Turtles" was released from 44 years ago in 1976, one thing is certain... they don't get old.

We have sourced a very special example giving the perfect sign of vintage feeling from the watch. This example from Jan of 1985 was one that we just couldn’t pass on. The dial is the third variance of 6309 with red water resist text aged to greenish grey and a small Suwa logo together with the watch model Β '6309 704MT' at the bottom of the dial. The third variance is known to be more rare compare with other dial variances.Β 

The matte black dial is in great condition overall with perfectly developed patina throughout the hour plots. The hour and minute hands is original and developed a matching lume with the dial. The mineral crystal is scratch-free. The bezel has aged into a dark grey (same as the vintage Submariners) and rotates with click in either direction. The day and date can be quickset via the crown. The case is in mint condition with minor usage mark and the original finishes still visible.

We suggest you pair this vintage piece with our Nato strap or our Premium Rubber straps which makes it a perfect all-occasion watch for your day. You will only find it getting rarer for a vintage diver with such an amazing condition, get it before its gone.
