This 'mini turtle' was one of the first watches I got when I started collecting. No longer interested in dive watches. It's been a solid runner though. From what I've observed, running within +/-5 spd. Has expected minor marks from wear, but no dings or notable deep marks on it. Bezel aligns great. The emerald green color looks better in person, with a neat sunburst effect dial that can also have a matte appearance depending on the lighting. This one was imported from Japan and has the 'made in Japan' marking on the dial. Crystal appears very clean.

Overall it's been a solid watch. I no longer have the bracelet though (not that it was any good anyways), but Uncle Seiko sells an aftermarket one that fits this watch that I'm sure would be far better. Will ship with the Eulit perlon strap seen in the pics.

$170 Shipping included in price, but only shipping within the USA. Paypal is fine for payment.

	Established:	1881
	Website:	http://seikousa.com/index.php
	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
