Vintage 20th Cent. (1968) Seiko Lordmatic******7050 23-jewel automatic
$365
SHIPPING OFFERED
Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century Japanese Seiko Lordmatic (*****7050) 23-jewel automatic watch, made at their Suwa plant and dating from July 1968.
The watch embodies Seiko designer Taro Tanaka’s 1960’s ‘Grammar of design’ ethos with elegance, simplicity and strong lines. The lovely silver brush-finish dial is unmarked and nicely matches the polished indices and long hands. Features day and date complications, both of which change over correctly. The day/date quickset also works properly.
The case in in very good condition for a 55-year old watch - has not been polished and has its original factory lines and brush finishing (there are of course some wear marks but no major dents). The crystal is clear and has a very small mark (as pictured), which doesn’t affect the operation but wanted to note for a full item description.
The automatic works started from the first shake and the watch powers strongly. Was test-worn over 48 hours and kept good time.
Please check the photos as they form part of the item description.
