The "Seiko Lord Marvel" arrived today.
This is a rare model that was produced for a short period of just under two years during the transition period to high-beat models.
The rare gold-plated cases are especially valuable today.
The all-numeric Arabic dial, which is also included in the Lord Marvel 36000 lineup,
The design is based on this watch.
This is a unique item that showcases the details that are unique to low-beat models.
Arabic numerals are very rare in many vintage models, including Seiko models.
The distinctive design makes it a coveted item for collectors.
The low-beat model Lord Marvel has Arabic numerals,
Another unique feature is the combination of the SEIKO logo in block letters and the model name in cursive.
We have had a lot of stainless steel models in stock recently, but this is the first time we have had a gold-plated case in a few years.
I once again realize how few there are.
Gold-plated cases are more susceptible to damage than stainless steel cases.
There is some thinning and peeling of the plating in places, but it is rare to find one that is completely undamaged.
And it's rare to find a watch with such a beautiful dial.
This particular one has a little more damage, but the reason we chose to purchase it is that
Because of this condition, the purchase price can be low,
This is because we were able to keep the selling price low despite it being a rare model.
And personally, I like beautiful vintage items,
The more damaged and worn it is, the more it creates an atmosphere and makes you feel attached to it.
It's really down to personal preference.
Because of this, rather than selling,
I hope this will be an opportunity for many people to learn that such a watch exists.
Whether or not there is damage is entirely a matter of preference,
When you wear it, you can feel the vintage vibe.
This watch was made in 1966, so it's much older than me,
As I get older, I have various damages,
I feel like I'm getting older with the clock.
I fully understand that vintage watches in good condition are attractive, but
It would be a little embarrassing if everything was clean, so it's enough if the only thing that's brand new is the clothes I'm wearing.
Japanese-made watches are what give you that sense of manliness.
Although this is a valuable watch, it is priced very reasonably due to the purchase price.
We hope that our customers will enjoy these opportunities,
We feel that this is a really good timing for us.
But this is the only time we can offer it.
Take this opportunity to experience the profound charm of Japanese-made watches!
