1973 King Seiko Hi-Beat 5625-7111

EDIT, PLEASE READ: I received a message from a forum member about the blue dial, apparently only white dials are known for this model, and the blue ones are in a different finish.
I'm not an "expert" when it comes to this particular model so i trust other opinions, this one might be a redial.
I immediatly contacted the buyer, who wasn't completely comfortable to buy it, and provided the full refund.
I'll put it for sale again if someone is still interested and don't mind the dial issue. I'm taking offers.
Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.


For sale is this stunning King Seiko Hi-Beat 5625-7111.

Cal. 5625 with quick-set date and hacking function.

The case is an example of the "grammar of design" brought to Seiko by designer Taro Tanaka with a mix of flat brushed and mirror finished surfaces.

I'm asking 520 Euro (or best offer) including shipping with UPS or TNT to the EU (other countries at cost).

Payment by Paypal (plus fees) or bankwire.

Many references avaliable on request.
Thanks for looking.

I can't believe this is a refinish, kudos to the seller for being honest

Very fine example of how shallow the usual "it's redialed, hence it's worthless" pollution principle is... if it's redialed, and if one doesn't know it is, then it can be dead sexy nonetheless like this fine piece above... Would all of the posters above who said this thing is gorgeous (and it is) now dare say "OMG it's redialed, it's worth nothing"?

GLWS to the OP - still a very fine KS!

(edited: added the "usual")

Nope, I'm considering it.

I still think it's killer...very tempted

I don't think this is a redial at all. Looks like a great piece, also super tempted if it's back up for sale.
