The "Seiko Road Marvel 36000" that arrived today is a popular vintage model that appeared in 1967.
It features details only found in the earliest models.
From around 1966, we improved the conventional Road Marvel,
It was completely renewed with the model number "5740-8000",
In just two years, we changed each detail including the movement,
Lord Marvel 36000, which is still very popular, will be born.
Therefore, 1967 will be a year in which old and new Lord Marvel will be mixed,
A mix of low beat and high beat models.
As you can easily see from the table,
It's interesting that it's a little difficult to judge based on the back cover alone.
The earliest Lord Marvel 36000, like the old model,
It is engraved with the "seahorse" that was used on Seiko's waterproof watches at the time.
Depending on the waterproof performance, there are also dolphins, etc.
The gap between it and the watch feels strangely cute.
This individual is a classic Road Marvel 36000 bar index model when viewed from the front.
The camera back is a rare specimen of the earliest seahorse.
There aren't many people who delve into this kind of thing (lol)
There is no difference in performance just because the back cover is different.
You can see small differences like this here and there,
That's the fun of vintage watches.
