This is a special and quite rare watch these days. Its a JDM Rally Sport Diver from 1969.

It's all original except for a new crystal and aftermarket bracelet. The watch was also serviced fully, and new gaskets were installed. Service means that it was completely disassembled, cleaned and assembled using high-grade synthetic lubricants. I didn't pressure test it but it should pass 70m no problem. The sealing surfaces were perfect and not pitted or damaged in any way.

Everything operates exactly as it should. The bezel rotates beautifully. The date is changed by pushing in the crown. It keeps time within 10 seconds a day.

Usually when you see these, the dial,bezel and hands are aftermarket, but this is all original!

This came to me directly from Japan about 3 months ago. I have another one that's exactly the same so that's why I'm selling. It's an amazing piece and any collector will absolutely adore it.

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.
