Hi there, I am putting up for sale my **vintage King Seiko "Special"** \[ref: 5256-8010\] from 1975. Purchased this from a private seller in Dec 2024, last serviced in 2023 from a reputable seller (happy to share details), and new gaskets were installed by the last owner in summer of 2024. Wears extremely well with its 36mm diameter and 10mm thickness with a variety of outfits.

The case is unpolished and retains its sharp edges, keeping it authentically vintage. [Here is more info about this model](https://www.watchuseek.com/threads/a-history-of-the-classic-automatic-king-seiko-with-a-comparison-of-the-5626-7113-and-the-5256-8010.1034554/). The watch is lightly worn and well taken care of in the 11 months that I've owned it, runs very smoothly and accurate to 3-4 seconds per day the last time I checked. **Asking for $420 USD shipped**, will accept PayPal G&S or FF. I am in Toronto so I can meet locally if you are in town (and knock off shipping fees of course).
