A very rare Seiko Actus watch in great condition. Stunning Turquoise Blue sunburst dial. Raised Faceted indexes make the dial pop. Beefy solid cushion case. Paired with a solid bracelet. Movement has been serviced. Good time keeping. Faceted unique Crystal gives it a retro vibe. Amazing condition at 51 year old, ready to be used as a daily driver. Oversized watch of its era being 37 mm. Such pieces should be appreciated upfront to experience at full measure, pictures don't do justice to this beauty. Sunlight brings out most of its beauty. They were designed to have premium build quality but for only regions of Japan. Handling it, I can definitely guarantee this is superior to modern watches of the same price zone. A good Collectors piece. The Kanji(Japanese) date highly complements the dial. It has both English and Japanese (Kanji) day options. Crown perfectly blends into case. Turquoise Blue dials are highly sought after in seiko world, so this is a great investment piece as well. They're only released in Japan, JDM model. Actus was introduced as a premium sub-brand of Seiko like the Alpinist or the Prospex brands of today. Actus variant had a higher jewel movement and marketed as “young, activity line”, compared to the standard Seiko 5. "SS" logo is also stamped on some Actus models which is the short form of Second Setting. Models with the SS logo comes with hacking function. This one being one of them has hacking. The date changing mechanism of the movement is very unique. The date will change by pressing the crown inside. PRICE: $279 USD via Paypal, Zelle, Venmo, TransferWise/Wise, Cashapp, Wire, Crypto. FREE Shipping worldwide. Considering a 150 USD worth of service to the watch has been done alone, I'm asking a reasonable price. I have a good number of exchanges here for a safe transaction.
