Here’s a cool vintage “second” diver from Seiko! First year production with natural patina to hands and dial. Desireable “Proof” dial. Was found without bezel and replaced with aftermarket coin edge bezel from Yobokies that looks and works great! These early models did not have ratcheting bezels or screw-down crowns. This example still has original crown as well. New crystal. Good running condition and unpolished case. Price is $600 FIRM ConUS plus USPS Priority Mail. Paypal, Zelle and Venmo accepted. PM or email: gppou(at)att(dot)net

Price: $600.00

Outstanding trade with original_chronokid !!!

I approached original_chronokid regarding a potential trade of my Tempest Commodore for the Sumo Mod he had listed. He agreed to the trade-- even after disclosure that the Bezel action was less than perfect, but with the Sumo only being about a TZ88%, it presented itself as a fair trade... …

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.
