Seiko JNR Crown delivered to the customer today.
A watch distributed to railway workers of Japan National Railways (now JR).
There are several watches of this type for railway workers,
This is by far the best considering its rarity!
Based on Seiko's famous crown,
All numeric dial with colored hands,
This is a custom-made model that has even been tuned to have a hack function that stops the second hand.
The watch is completely different from the regular model crown,
When I think about the fact that a watch like this was delivered to Japan National Railways,
The railroad workers at the time must have been happy.
I don't know anything about railways, but it's interesting to watch as a watch.
After all, this number dial is cute!
I haven't seen such a playful watch in decades.
Maybe that's why I find old watches more interesting.
There are a certain number of people who are now making a fuss that watches are just a brand or an asset.
The original purpose of a wristwatch is to tell the time.
Items that pursue the essence using the technology available at the time remain attractive even years or decades later.
When you look at this clock, you can almost hear the voice of a railroad worker.
“Yes, let’s leave!”
Pshuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
