Regular maintenance for a customer that was requested the other day.
Among the King Seiko first models that are becoming rare,
The prices of the early production items are rising rapidly.
This is the earliest model of the early King Seiko First.
Anyone who can tell just by looking at it is likely to be a big fan of Japanese watches.
The earliest way to tell the difference is that the number of jewels, "25," written on the 6 o'clock side is small.
The King Seiko First was born in 1961.
The small numbers indicate that the production period was very short, less than one year.
In later years the notation changed to a larger, vertical one.
Although it's a small detail, the difference in wording here can make a difference in the selling price of around 50,000 yen.
But the general public probably doesn't know what it's all about,
The owner here doesn't really know either lol
I think the selling price when you bought this was around 100,000 yen,
If it were sold now in the same condition, it would probably go for over 200,000 yen.
As I realized that the prices of vintage watches have been rising,
Even though it was about 10 years ago, I am filled with gratitude to the customers who purchased my products.
This time, the customer requested an overhaul and belt replacement.
They ask for regular overhauls, so I think they take really good care of it.
We can really feel this.
In order to respond to that desire, we carried out thorough repairs this time as well.
Now you can use it forever!
