Hello,

selling my vintage Seiko "Seikomatic-P". The watch is almost 57 years old and was produced by Daini Seiko.

As it is hard to see on the photos, the dial has a very nice pattern in vertical direction and nicely machined indices.

With too many watches in my closet, I just never got around to wearing it or having it serviced. I even bought an original matching watch crystal, which I am including in the sale.

Condition of the watch:

The watch can be wound and runs, and the date change also works.
However, the day of the week mechanism gets stuck sometimes and doesn't turn properly, which I have noticed with many 51 movements.
Most of the scratches you can see on the photos above the dial are on the crystal.

Asking 210€ plus shipping. Watch will be shipped from Austria (EU).

	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.
