The Seiko Super, which arrived today, is said to be "the first domestically produced wristwatch after the war."
Many industries have been revived from Japan, which was a burnt-out area after World War II.
Japan is rebuilding itself and heading into a period of high economic growth.
This supermarket is a watch that gives you a sense of Japanese history.
I have sold many supermarkets so far,
Another characteristic of supermarkets is that you rarely come across the same design.
Since the information posted on the website is the most recent,
I've seen quite a few, including those before publication.
Even if they look slightly similar, they are actually different...
I can't count (lol)
According to the dealer, it is probably impossible to know all types.
I don't know the exact number because the manufacturer doesn't have any documentation left, but
There are probably hundreds of different designs.
It seems that the company has seen over 400 cases in the past.
Even so, the same thing still pops up from time to time.
It's interesting that there are so many types,
Even we have new encounters with vintage watches every year.
I look forward to it every time I handle it.
Even though vintage watches themselves are once in a lifetime, no two watches are in the same condition.
The fact that the design is different every time makes it worth collecting...
This is dangerous (lol)
This time it is a repurchase from a customer,
The joy of being able to encounter something that I have dealt with in the past again,
The joy of being able to think of a good design once again.
Various thoughts intersect.
Above all, along with the ideas of our predecessors,
A watch that lets you feel the history that Japan has followed.
I'm impressed that it's still working well even after nearly 70 years.
After all, old watches are nice!
