Condition
The Seiko Pocket Watch Antique is a working product and is in good condition considering its age. The timegrapher app measurement revealed a day difference of approximately +28 seconds, which is acceptable for an antique clock. However, it's important to note that the timegrapher measurement is a simple one and should be considered as a reference. Accuracy and power reserve may vary depending on factors such as the winding condition of the mainspring and the positioning of the watch.
After winding the mainspring, the watch has been observed to operate for more than 41 hours. The dial shows no noticeable scratches, ensuring clear visibility. While there are some scratches on the windshield, they do not obstruct the view. The case exhibits signs of use, including scratches and discoloration, which are appropriate for its aging. Please refer to the provided photographs for a visual confirmation of the watch's condition.
SEIKO: A Legacy of Timekeeping
The SEIKO brand has a rich history, dating back to its establishment as Hattori & Co. in 1881. It has since become Japan's leading watch manufacturer, renowned for its craftsmanship and innovation. SEIKO watches have earned a reputation for their quality and precision, making them highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
The back cover of this particular pocket watch features a stamp of "3172 Japanese National Railways," adding to its historical significance. The exact details of the watch's overhaul history are unknown, but it continues to function energetically with its characteristic "tick tick" sound.
Additionally, please note that there may be small scratches on the watch that are not clearly visible in the provided photographs. It is recommended to make a purchase only if you understand and accept these minor imperfections. As an old timepiece, it may not meet the standards of perfection sought by some buyers. We hope to find a new owner who will appreciate and care for this watch with the attention it deserves.
