# Reference: **Model:** Seiko SARY007 **Year Produced:** November 2010 **Timestamp:** [https://imgur.com/a/Kd14NLO](https://imgur.com/a/Kd14NLO) **Album:** [https://imgur.com/a/cbxRAFR](https://imgur.com/a/cbxRAFR) # Features: **The JDM.** Seiko loves to drop random, unmarketed, dressy-looking watches onto the JDM. They often do it in incredibly limited numbers without any fanfare, making them pseudo-limited edition and very hard to track down. I’ve theorised before that these unmarketed releases are the result of result of junior designers being given the opportunity to create low-stakes, small-batch releases for the Japanese Domestic Market. With Seiko’s strong culture of internal promotion, allowing designers to step above their paygrade for a project or two could be an ideal way to spot new talent. **The Date.** Just to throw my anecdotal evidence into the ring - I've personally come across five or six of these in Japan, and everyone single one of them has a caseback production code of October or November 2010. The release window on these must have been a single run.  **The Dial.** A guilloche-textured inner circle with tight concentric circles around the outer dial. But, the indices on this watch deserve all of the credit. They do a wonderful job of flicking between dead matte and fully illuminated as the light catches them. It seems very unlikely given the price point, but they have a zaratsu polish look to them. # Details: **The Condition**: In very good condition overall. Just serviced by Seiko Japan. A few bumps and marks on the bezel and case, but nothing overly unpleasant. The most noticeable marks can be seen next to the crown on the side of the case.
