“This is the Hi-Beat Seiko 5740-8000, the linen dial variant from the Lord Marvel line regarded as one of Seiko's vintage classics. It is well known that Girard Perregaux was the first maison to create a 36k vph hi-beat movement in 1966, however most are not aware that the Suwa factory of Seiko created the second 36k vph hi-beat movement only a few months later. These Lord Marvels were originally meant to be Seiko's premier high end offering, but were only produced from 1967 to the 70's due to being eventually succeeded by Grand Seiko. The model you see here is an example of a Lord Marvel variant, this model features applied arabic numerals and a linen dial with a beautiful sheen.” The watch is in exceptional condition! The case is unpolished and very sharp. The watch has just been serviced and is running great. Photoalbum: https://imgur.com/a/TP46vyl This is a bargain for what you get! I am asking $450 excluding shipping and fees. I am based in Denmark 🇩🇰

	Established:	1791

	Country of Origin:	Switzerland

In 1791, watchmaker and goldsmith Jean-François Bautte signed his first watches. He created a manufacturing company in Geneva grouping, for the first time ever, all the watch making facets of that time, which meant starting from the engineering of the watch all the way to the final hand assembly and hand polishing of each watch. In 1852, the watchmaker Constant Girard founded the Girard & Cie Firm in La Chaux-de-Fonds. He, then, married Marie Perregaux and the Girard-Perregaux Manufacture was born in 1856. In 1906, Constant Girard-Gallet, who took over control of the Manufacture from his father, took over the Bautte House and merged it with Girard-Perregaux & Cie. Since then, the brand has pursued its activities by reinforcing from the 1980s its position in the domain of prestigious mechanical watches, Haute Horlogerie, under the lead of Luigi Macaluso. In 2011, Sowind Group, the holding incorporating Girard-Perregaux, became a subsidiary of Kering.

Constant Girard produced the first ever major commercial production of a wristwatch, made for German naval officers and ordered by German Kaiser Wilhelm I. The Manufacture has approximately 80 patents in the watch-making domain and is the originator of many innovative concepts.
