For sale is a Seiko Prospex SPB297, a “Save the Ocean” special edition diver. It has a beautiful textured blue dial that is supposed to resemble glacier ice. It comes with the original box, I do not have the warranty card any more. I have this watch discounted because it could use a service. It’s running at about +30 seconds per day, which is just outside of the standard range of +25 to -15. It also seems to stick when manually winding it when it’s dead, you just need to pull the crown out and pushing it back in gets it going (or just shake the watch a bit). Overall not a big deal and can absolutely be worn as-is, but I wanted to be fully transparent! I am looking for $600 shipped, U.S. only (retail was $1,250). I can take Venmo, Zelle, or PayPal (G&S if you have feedback and cover the fee). Please let me know if you have any questions, thanks!

	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.
