SHAC (Silver Hard Alloy Cobalt)
Hey, I’m the Seiko moderator and I never had heard this acronym before, so had to look it up.
Here’s a watch that was listed on another site - he had to practically give it away.
And another.
I can live with this style - why not?
Well - because it would be like buying a cassette deck or CD-ROM burner 🔥 … but that never stopped me before.
So maybe a Credor SHAC?

The more unusual side of Seiko 🐰
Seiko has been one of the early entrants to partnering with various entertainment franchises. Here goes a not often worn Seiko 2220-0630 Playboy, complete with a relatively slim Chariot handwound movement, a SHAC ultra hard case (practically pristine afte...
Isn't it crazy what a wide range of watches Seiko has come up with?
Just 3 off the top of my Seiko shelf this morning. ...
In that respect your collection is a lot more varied, still!
Mine is but small in comparison 😁👍🏻
Would be fantastic worn in Studio 54

I didn’t know
about the SHAC cases, it looks like new after 50 years, wonderful! Wonder why they are not making more of these… beautiful watch by the way.
Good question why SHAC stopped being made…
Could be the cost 🤷🏻♂️ Several manufacturers went down similar routes, Rado being perhaps best known. Many ended up with ceramics…
Sad though
I’d like to own a SHAC cased watch. Though given how well it preserves itself regular people might stop buying watches thinking their watch is as new and shiny as its first day, so why bother buying a new one.
Possibly the reason why they stopped 😁🤷🏻♂️
I have three and all are similarly pristine 😊👍🏻

Still unfortunate that the technology or something similar was not kept up…
As the watches really look pristine decades later 😁🤷🏻♂️
They look so cool and pristine no?
I would definitely like to own one. Will look for one, maybe can find a nice piece.
