Up for sale is the Seiko World-timer Age of Discovery 5T52-7A11 in excellent condition Images: https://imgur.com/a/aKvhSHR Timestamp: https://imgur.com/a/Ul4shSv Video: https://imgur.com/TxmNbbK Produced for just three years (1990-1992), this watch was made to commemorate the 500th anniversary of Columbus landing in the Americas. The “Age of Discovery” usually refers to the period from the 1400s to 1700s, a time of mapping the world, connecting isolated cultures, and setting the stage for globalization. To put it in perspective, this was when the printing press was invented, Constantinople fell, and even the Salem witch trials took place. Somehow, amidst all that history, Seiko managed to capture the essence of exploration in a single watch. The scroll lugs, gold accents, cartographic details, and Roman numerals all transport you back to that era. What makes this piece stand out is its design. The case is unlike anything else, resembling the wheel of a sailing ship with four pushers on each side. The dial is full of details that evoke old maps, compasses, and seafaring adventures. The vintage-style lugs and the engraved ship on the case back reinforce that spirit of exploration. With a 38mm case diameter, 8mm thickness, and 18mm lug width, this watch is incredibly versatile for daily wear. Powered by the Seiko 5T52 Quartz Movement, it delivers a range of practical features, including world time with 24 cities, a dual-time display, and an alarm subdial, making it a great companion for travelers. The watch is all original, showing minor scratches on the bezel and case back. It comes with an OEM strap, but I’ll include a premium Hoa Sa leather strap as an extra if you decide to purchase. If you’re interested in more Hoa Sa straps, visit www.hoasavn.com and use code “jason10” for 10% off your total order. A standard Seiko box will be provided with the watch. Price: $425 (one previous listing on watchexchange sold at $475 in happily worn condition)+ shipping (FedEx/DHL). Payment via PayPal F&F or G&S (buyer covers +4.4% fee). No trades please.
