I’ve had this watch for several years now and am ready to sell it to free up funds for my next purchase. I bought it on from Chrono24 from a dealer in Japan; that’s why all the paperwork is in Japanese. I wore it a lot and it has some light scuffing, but no deep scratches or gouges. I always thought it was a bit crazy to have the Grand Seiko meticulous finishing on a sports watch, it does look amazing. I think you could get it repolished by Grand Seiko if you would like, or just wear it because it’s built to be a tough sports watch. Fitted to my 7” wrist and comes with another half and full link. Here’s a video I took that shows the current condition in natural light (the sides still shine like a mirror with that Zaratsu polishing):

Please DM me with any questions. Buy with confidence; I’ve been buying and selling on this forum for years. Price includes insured shipped within the CONUS only.

Price: $3,650.00

	Established:	1881

	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.
