Experience the timeless sophistication of the Seiko Lord Matic vintage watch—a masterpiece that carries forward the esteemed lineage of Seiko's celebrated Lord Marvel series. Building upon the legacy of the renowned Lord Marvel 36000, which featured the groundbreaking 5740C (36,000 bph) movement and marked its place as the first high-beat watch in the Japanese domestic market, the Lord Matic has not only met but exceeded expectations in the world of Vintage Seiko watches.
Introduced in 1968, the Seiko Lord Matic series showcases a refined design characterized by a high-quality case and impeccable finish, powered by the advanced 56 series movement. This distinguished collection quickly rose in popularity, with the 5606 movement becoming one of the most widespread Seiko mechanical movements of its time. The technological advancements embodied in the Lord Matic 5606 movement laid the groundwork for higher-beat variants utilized in numerous Automatic King Seiko and Grand Seiko models from the early to mid-1970s.
Renowned for exceptional quality and captivating designs, the Seiko Lord Matic watches offer a variety of dial and case styles to suit individual tastes.
The Lord Matic we present here is among the finest examples we've ever acquired. Boasting a near new-old-stock (NOS) condition, it features a pristine and rare black dial with virtually no signs of aging on the dial or case. The crystal is scratch-free, and the case retains its original brushed finish from the factory, showcasing meticulous preservation. Recently serviced in Japan, the watch is keeping excellent time. The well-maintained brushed finish indicates that the watch has not undergone polishing—a process that is challenging to execute without altering the original curved brush finish. We are confident that this timepiece has been exceptionally cared for by its previous owner.
A standout feature of the Lord Matic line is the durability and reliability of its 56 series movements, engineered to withstand the test of time. The automatic winding mechanism, coupled with Seiko's Diashock protection system, ensures that these Vintage Seiko timepieces remain accurate and dependable even after years of use.
In conclusion, the Seiko Lord Matic vintage watch is a true testament to the brand's commitment to excellence in craftsmanship and design. With its rich heritage, attractive aesthetics, and reliable performance, the Lord Matic remains a sought-after classic in the world of vintage timepieces. Don't miss the opportunity to add this iconic Seiko Lord Matic watch to your collection, and experience the enduring charm of a Vintage Seiko masterpiece.
