Up for sale is my Seiko SPB297. Gorgeous, unique blue dial and excellent specs for the price. 40.5mm diameter, 20mm lugs, sapphire crystal, solid end links, milled clasp., fantastic Seiko lume. Full specs here:

SPB297

This is one of the “Save the Ocean” models, the dial really does have the look of rippling ocean water. Very cool.

Watch is in excellent shape. I cannot see a mark on the case, bezel or crystal. OEM bracelet is sized, but only lightly worn.

Sale also includes the Uncle Straps Z199 bracelet which I think fits the retro looks perfectly.

Comes with full kit, box and papers and all links for both bracelets.

Asking $750 net shipped to CONUS for entire kit including extra bracelet. No trades, please.

Many sales on WUS. Please check my feedback and buy with confidence.

Happy to provide more pictures upon request.

Thanks for looking.

	Established:	1881

	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.
