An iconic vintage “Red” Alpinist, released in 1995, in great condition with the original bracelet. [Here’s a video of the watch in action.](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4X-qyQqnXl/) **Model**: 4S15-6000, SCVF007, “Red Alpinist” **Year**: April 1996 **Features**: * *4S15 movement*. Using one of Seiko’s s very well advertised and known “Hi-Beat” movement (28800 bph), resulting in silky smooth sweep, especially when you consider the watch is almost 30 years old. * *Alpinist*. The Alpinist series started in the 1960s with the release of the Seiko “Lauren” Alpinist. Designed to be used as an outdoor watch by Japanese mountain climbers, it is perhaps more well known to modern collectors as the series that contains the SARB017. All Alpinists are released as part of Seiko’s “Prospex” (professional specifications) line, as they are built to be rugged and regularly worn. * *Rotating Bezel*. Now a feature of all Alpinists, it can be used to determine your bearings if you can currently see the Sun. Works very smoothly, with no binding/sticking and absolutely no loss of colour due to aging. * *Bracelet*. The original bracelet, able to accommodate up to a 7 inch (18cm) wrist. **Condition**: The watch is in good condition overall. No obvious visible scratches on the dial or crystal or front of the watch. There is a loupe magnification type scratch on the crystal between the 12 and 1 o’clock. The case back shows minor signs of the bracelet marking it, but it’s very light overall. Bracelet is very good overall, and any abrasions are shallow. The photos are representative of the condition. My photos and description may sound scary and that’s simply because I try to overrepresent any damage rather than underrepresent it. I would encourage you to [watch the video for an overall feel of the watch](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4X-qyQqnXl/). **Scope**: No box/papers. Sent in a Provenance Watches leather travel case. **Movement**: 4S15 automatic 28800bhp **Case Width**: 38mm **Lug to lug:** 43mm **Case Thickness**: 10.5mm **Bracelet width:** 19mm **Bracelet length:** 180mm (fits a wrist up to 7”) **Price**: The crystal, cyclops and dial have are in good condition overall, and it has the original 7” bracelet, but the case is worn (but unpolished) and the crystal has some tiny chip marks above the 12 o’clock, so I’m offering it at a slightly lower than normal price of **$845** plus shipping (sent from Japan; costs $5-$55 depending on where you are in the world). I accept Wise, Paypal and Bank Transfer, depending on your transaction history. **Of note**: Nothing to report [Album](https://imgur.com/a/Vx2pQTj) [Proof](https://imgur.com/a/mHubxNQ)
