[WTS] Seiko Alpinist SBCJ019. HAQ with GMT & Perpetual Calendar. Original Box and Guarantee.
An unworn, immaculate condition, early 2000s, now discontinued, titanium 8F56 HAQ (+/- 20 seconds per **year**) GMT Perpetual Calendar Alpinist from Seiko. [Click here to see a video of the watch in action](https://www.instagram.com/p/C3kSQjDqTRF/) **Model**: Seiko SBCJ019 / 8F56-00D0 **Year**: February 2004 **Complications**: It’s both GMT and a Perpetual calendar. The calendar won’t need correcting until February 28, 2100. Despite having a GMT hand, it’s still an Alpinist at heart so there’s rotating inner compass bezel instead of a World Timer bezel. The bezel can be used to determine the direction of North as long as you can see the Sun. **The Movement**: High Accuracy Quartz (HAQ). In its very nature quartz is very accurate (typically +/- 15 seconds per month), but it has one major weakness: changes in temperature. HAQ movements are thermos-compensated, meaning they can adjust themselves when the temperature changes, resulting in an accuracy of +/- 20 seconds per year! **The Battery**: The 8F56 battery has a 10-year lifespan. It was replaced in 2023 so you’re good to go for a while! **Materials**: The case and bracelet are titanium making it super lightweight. A mix of polished and brushed surfaces give it a rugged but smart appearance. The bracelet is the full length (13 link) original titanium bracelet. **The Condition**: Unworn and in brilliant condition. The crystal is flawless. The case is not absolutely immaculate as there are some tiny abrasions on some of the polished surfaces, but for a 20-year-old titanium polished surface you’d think it was brand new! Pictures 3 and 4 show the small abrasions on the edge of the bezel. The case back and bracelet are sealed behind protective covers. Immediately remove these prior to wearing the watch. **Scope**: [Original box and guarantee.](https://imgur.com/a/R7RKEaT) **Movement**: 8F56 HAQ **Case Width**: 38.5mm **Case Thickness**: 11.1mm **Strap Length**: 7” wrist (18cm) **Price**: Based on the condition, full bracelet, original box and guarantee, I’m offering it at **$1250** net to me plus shipping. Bank Wire, Wise.com (preferred as there are no fees for either of us), PayPal (if you have transaction history, and fees paid by you) or Shopify via my website (if you have transaction history, and fees paid by you) accepted. Not accepting trades. **Of note**: Nothing to report. [Album](https://imgur.com/a/UkJ0tvS) [Proof](https://imgur.com/a/eMZrhTd)
