    Dear all.

    I am hereby leading another watch to the block, this time a ref. 7619-9030 Seiko 5 Sportmatic from June 1966.

    The dial has a sunburst finish and is completely unmarked, as are both hands and indices which feature some pretty good detailing. Note that there is a mark on the crystal; a new Sternkreuz replacement item will come with the watch, should you wish to get it rectified at a service.

    The stainless steel case measures 38mm x 44mm and features hidden crown as well as hidden date corrector. The case is free from deep marks and if it is not unpolished, then it is at least only lightly polished. The caseback engraving is sharp and show a June 1966 production date. Lug width is 18mm.

    I do not know how to open the case ( :oops: ), so there are no movement shots, sorry. The day and date change works flawlessly, the hacking and automatically winding movement starts up fast and runs like, well, nearly all old Seikos. Note that there are some rotor noise - this is apparently a common thing with this movement.


    I am asking €200 for this Seiko including the black leather strap shown in the photos, a replacement crystal and tracked shipping anywhere. This by bank transfer only. I'll be happy to take returns within a week of you receiving the watch, should you not be satisfied. Watch and I are located in Denmark, EU.
