From Seiko’s golden era comes one of the purest expressions of Japanese watchmaking — the King Seiko 44-9990, powered by the original pre-update Caliber 44A hand-wound movement. This example remains all-original, featuring a beautiful untouched dial, crisp dauphine hands, and the sharp, unpolished case that still carries the Zaratsu mirror finish — a hallmark of Seiko’s “Grammar of Design” philosophy later perfected in Grand Seiko. Every facet and bevel reflects the spirit of Daini Seikosha’s craftsmanship at its peak. The iconic KS shield medallion sits proudly on the caseback, completing this elegant and historically important piece.
