Hello folks

i'm selling this Seiko 5606-7000. It's the same as the Lord Matic but without the LM mention.
Description and condition :
it's based on the 5606 caliber. The movement is in very good condition and was serviced last year. Nevertheless, it would require a new mainspring as the amplitude is a little low.
Day and date set ok, jump OK at 12 sharp.

case : the case is very good. the angles are still rather sharp with no major dings and scuffs. It's unpoilished.

crystal : the crystal is original but has some signs of wear, scratches. It should be replaced. it's available at Cousins for about 8 pounds (Sternkreuz replacement)

dial and hands: This is the worst part. Dial shows some damages around the day/date window. The frame seems to have been glued and there are some little traces of glue and flaking around it. The rest of the dial is fine with some scratches on the markers.

The hands show some aging, mainly some scratches and some lack of black painting on the hour hand.
the watch comes with a new drak brown strap made of genuine leather.

Asking 80 euros + 15 euros shipping in the EU. 30 worldwide.

thanks for reading.
