Seikomatic-P ! A Marvel to behold.
In the late 1960’s Seiko was at its highest level of watchmaking to date just before it almost killed off All the mechanical watch movements with the introduction of Quartz. With that said the Seiko you see is a perfect example of Fit , Form , and Function. It has 33 jewels, hand winding, and Hacks which most Seiko’s at that time didn’t. The shame of the 5106 movement that beats in this watch is that they only made it from 1967 to 1969. So enjoy your Vintage Seiko’s and Vintage Watches.

I have been collecting watches and pocket watches for about 30 years. I really enjoy the Beauty and Complexity of watches And their movements . They are not only an expression of Time but of Art .

I agree with you, the 60s-early 70s were the golden age of seiko.
An absolute favorite! Fabulous watch 😎
Amazing - and that is a crisp example, looks like it's been in a safe for sixty years.

Actually. I am replacing the crystal and cleaning up the case a little . I have cleaned the movement and oiled it. It is working beautifully. The dial is pristine!! Thank you and Best Regards. Eric
