Selling this Seiko SARB017 “Alpinist”, good condition on an Uncle Seiko Jubilee bracelet, plus included OEM brown ‘alligator’ strap. I am selling because I ended up with two SARB017’s, recently purchased here on Watchexhchange - a friend was going to take one but didn’t, so now I’m reselling one of them. Priced to hopefully move at $680. Crystal is clean, case is in good condition with only some minor cosmetic wear. Watch runs reliably well as observed from the time I have had it, close to even timekeeping when kept face up in the watch box. I’m in NYC if anyone is local, available to video chat to talk through questions as well. $680 OBO shipped ConUS, can discuss if overseas.

	Established:	1881
	Website:	http://seikousa.com/index.php
	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.
