For sale is this vintage Seiko "Emblem" 4120-9000, made in Japan in July of 1976. The "Emblem" series was a mid-range series just a smidge below the expensive quartz models, which were top-of-the-range in the Seiko lineup during the 70s and may have roots in Seiko's Emblem-branded clock series (perhaps the designs were made to look more like clocks?).  Manufactured in Seiko's Suwa factory (shown by the Suwa swirl logo on the dial) during its famous rivalry with the Daini Factory. This example, reference number MNC011, has a beautiful bold blue dial, which ranges from a deep blue to an electric blue depending on the light, with contrasting white stick baton markers and unique white mid-century modern hands. The Seiko logo, Emblem logo, single crystal quartz symbol and print at the bottom of the dial are in white.  The lugless "disco volanté" design of the case takes tips from heavy-hitters like the Universal Genevé "Shadow" and Patek Philippe "Ellipse" (both designed by Gerald Genta) while making the case more modern and space-age with its chamfered sides, creating a slim look on the wrist (as is written in the brief, in Japanese, on the 1976 Seiko catalog clipping).  The calibre 4120 movement was one of the smallest quartz movements on the market at the time and had an accuracy of 15 seconds per month (as a comparison the more modern Casio F-91W has/had an accuracy of 30 seconds per month). In great condition for its age being over 50 years old. General wear expected. Brand new original NOS Seiko crystal fitted. Comes on a brand new Milanese adjustable mesh strap. Brand new battery. Dimensions are: 35mm x 36mm x 8mm  Lug Width 18mm Bought in Japan.
