Condition

A beautifully preserved example of the Seiko Crown, one of the important early dress watches from Seiko’s mechanical era. Powered by Seikosha’s 19-jewel manual-winding movement, the Crown features an elegant two-tone silver dial with applied gold baton indices, dauphine-style hands and the wonderfully period-correct scripted “Seiko Crown” and “Diashock 19 Jewels” signatures. This watch is very well preserved and is in great condition with only minor corrosion on the caseback which has not went any further!
