Hello WatchEx! Up for sale is my Seiko Superior Quartz 4883-8100 from 1977 in good vintage condition. The watch has Seiko’s proprietary high speed steel casing.  When this watch was introduced in the 1977 Seiko catalog, it represented a huge leap forward in terms of timekeeping accuracy, improving on the benchmark Seiko had previously set with its 3883 movements from +/- 2s/month to +/- 12s/YEAR. This level of accuracy is comparable to even modern high accuracy quartz movements.  While the technological achievements are very cool, in my humble opinion, the aesthetic details of the dial on this watch are what make it so special. With its gorgeous creamy weave pattern, polished & applied MINUTES indices, and tall, geometric onyx stones used to indicate the the hours, it becomes very clear that this was positioned to be an extremely premium watch when it was released. At 180,000yen in 1977 money, this watch was more expensive than most Rolex offerings of the time, roughly 10% of the average annual Japanese salary. You can really get lost admiring the details on the dial, very special stuff. CONDITION DETAILS: This example comes complete with its original box and numbers matching guarantee papers (very rare to see). The watch has been fully serviced and is ready to level up any wrist it sits on for years to come.  Quick Specs: Stainless Steel | 36mm Case | 41.5mm Lug to Lug | 10mm Thickness | Mechanical Quartz, Seiko calibre 4883A [Album](https://imgur.com/a/bPqh1UP) [Timestamp](https://imgur.com/a/bPqh1UP#66IuyCj) Price : $550 OBO shipped insured domestic from Los Angeles (international shipping available for additional fee), Wire/ACH, PayPal F&F for buyers with good transaction history or for an additional fee via G&S invoice (+4.6% Paid by buyer) Shipping with UPS/DHL.
