    As many of you know, my focus shifted away from Grand Seikos to King Seikos so the plan was to sell the Grands. Due to some unexpected medical bills, I will be selling most of my collection, starting with this beauty from November 1963.

    The freshly serviced, manual wind, chronometer grade cal. 430 movement, with date function, is keeping good time (proof of service is included). The nearly 37mm case(excluding crown) has a 19mm lug width, 42.5mm lug to lug. As you can see from the photos, the case is in excellent condition.

    The AD dial is in very good condition with two very minor spots, next to the 10 o'clock marker and to the left of the date window. The early gold lion medallion on back has very little wear.

    The crown, which I believe to be original, shows signs of wear.

    I'm asking $1500.00 USD, which includes PayPal fees and shipping within the US. International sales welcome with shipping at buyer's expense.

    I have lots of positive feedback here and on WUS as efauser and saguy43 on eBay.

    Please review the photos and feel free to ask questions. I will not accept returns unless grossly misrepresented.

    Absolutely stunning example of a very important watch. If I didn't have one, this would be mine. Best of luck with the sale!
