I always use Google lens for this:

Of course it's not a perfect translation but usually it's good enough.

Btw you can tell it's japanese because there a few kana symbols, it's not all kanji/hanzi.

wow, thats cool. I knew g-lens, but this is new to me!
A great THANK YOU!
You're welcome. Btw lens is also really nice for finding watches. Sometimes I would pause a movie and find what the actors are wearing 😁

It's funny when they act like it's some crazy expensive chronograph and you find it's a cheap generic quartz from AliExpress.

15034 applied dial
Looks very nice, I have been looking for these myself(haven't gotten one yet) and a dial in this condition is rare. If not a secret, what price are they offering?

only "seiko"
Didn't they come up with the KS buckles after 45KS/56KS? I have never seen 44KS with a KS buckle, let alone the first King Seiko before 4420/44-990.

Totally fair. I didn't know.

I have a 5626-7041 and I have the King Seiko buckle so I just thought they all came with them. Clearly I'm not the one in the know.
