For sale I have a San Martin Turtle watch. This is a more or less exact copy of the Seiko Turtle in terms of specs and dimensions. It has in addition a nice domed sapphire crystal and upgraded bezel insert. The watch is in excellent condition, runs great and keep time within spec. Lume is excellent and the time is readable all night. Every function works as it should, the bezel is smooth and firm, crown screw and unscrew securely. I personally wore it a few days and everything works perfectly as it should.

It has been customized with an OEM Seiko SKX173 dial and Seiko SRP445 hands. It has a Seiko NH35 movement and it is compatible with most Seiko parts for the SKX and Turtle. It comes with a super soft rubber strap that is new and never used as well as warranty paper, manual and small Pelika style case. All these can be seen in the pictures.

I am asking $275 for this beauty, Always open to offers and trades and can combine with other watches I have for sale.

Here are a few pics:

Yet another good transaction with Carlowus

Just completed a trade with Carlo and it went wonderfully. Good communication and the goods were just as described. This is my third or fourth transaction with Carlo and I doubt it will be the last. I transact with him with total confidence and you should too.

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.
