The watch
Seiko Seikomatic from 1966 in excellent condition. The silver dial has a sunburst effect, perfectly complemented by sharp dauphine hands. The watch features a quickset day function: pull the crown out one step to adjust the day, displayed in Japanese Kanji. The date can be set in this caliber by pulling the crown two steps and moving the hands back and forth between 9 and 3 o’clock.
The case is in perfect, unpolished condition and the dial is spotless. The bezel shows some wear on one side. The Seikomatic has been equipped with a new old stock acrylic domed crystal and a new leather cowhide strap.
The watch has undergone a professional full service, which guarantees it’s mechanically sound and ready to wear for years to come without concern.
Details
The 6206 movement was introduced in the 1960s and was commonly used in Seiko's mid-to-high-range watches, such as the Seikomatic and Seiko Weekdater models. It was part of Seiko’s effort to expand internationally and compete with Swiss mechanical watches of the time.
