Selling my Accutron devil dive to fund other purchases. 42mm in width and overall in great shape for its age. I was told it was freshly serviced with new coils 3 years ago when I bought it. I tried to photograph the condition as best I could. There is a bubble in the crystal just above the 9:00 position and a scratch halfway between center and 4:00. Case has minor scratches and dings, consistent with 50 years of wear. Battery was just replaced. Comes on an Uncle Seiko tropic. I’ve purchased a few pieces here on Reddit, but first time selling. I’m a member of the TGN and Worn and Wound Slack channels, as well as a member of Redbar Detroit for reference. Asking $800 shipped CONUS

	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.
