Hi, for sale is my Seiko King Quartz 9923-8020, made in 1979 with a twin quartz movement with day-date complication in Japanese and English, and central seconds. The watch is in very good condition for its age and has only very subtle scratches. Clean dial and movement which keeps good time and has a particularly snappy date. Bracelet will fit around 7” wrist but probably not much more. 36mm case wears well on any wrist and it’s very thin. £250 shipped in the UK, postage available anywhere at cost. Paypal preferred, F&F or +3% for G&S. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
