    FS: Vintage King Seiko Hi-Beat, no date vintage marvel
    Reference: 45-7001
    Case: Excellent case that you could literally cut yourself on via the underside of the interior lug bevel, I believe this case to be unpolished, all facets are extremely sharp.
    Movement: manually wound, hi-beat, no date with hacking seconds. Truly a beautiful movement to watch glide along the dial and put up to your ear and hear charging along like a gatling gun (credit to Mike Stockton for that reference) Winding, setting, keeping time as it should. Service history is unknown.
    Dial: Original dial and hands in excellent condition, with no blemishes or flaws to report. The eggshell like dial appears a soft, textured matte white in some lights and shows a soleil startburst pattern that's extremely fine like strands of silk in other lighting. So many of these exhibit damage or moisture egress, but this is a truly pristine example.
    Price: $750 USD shipped within the continental US. I'm located in the US and typically ship via ParcelPro, I will ship outside of the US at actual price generated at time of label creation. If you prefer an alternative shipping method, I'm open to discussing. Payment via PP F&F, Venmo F&F, Zelle, or Wire.
    References: I have numerous references here, ChronoTrader, Reddit, WUS, eBay, Instagram, etc. Additional references available upon request:

    About the watch: An absolute gem and a hell of a lot of watch for the money with excellent finishing, a prominent, but flat case design, and true movement chops. A watch that I absolutely adore but just doesn't get worn much these days, particularly when working from home in sweatpants!

    The only reason I'm selling is because I'm trying to thin the herd; I'm listing several in hopes of selling a few, and if some others sell, I wouldn't mind hanging onto this one. I'm in the very fortunate position of feeling like I just have too many watches right now, and being as particular as I am, it's not easy to sell any as I love them all, including this great piece of vintage chronograph history. I will follow with straight iPhone shots taken in natural daylight with diffused light to the best of my meager abilities, but numerous additional photos can be seen on my instagram here.
