Seiko

last week i mentioned in the post about my newly purchased 1964 Grand Seiko that i thought i had purchased all the 1964 Seiko's that i wanted. how wrong could i be. only a couple of days later i came across a Seiko 5 Sportmatic in original condition for a...  

i hadnt thought about that, but now you mention it, it is similar. its 37mm which is quite big for the period. best G

.. this won't be your last 64 Seiko ;-) ... Cool dial btw ! Filip

i'm running out of options Seiko wise. i must research their divers models to see what was around in 64. the dial was probably the deciding factor for me. unusual. best G

Seiko made their first 150m divers in 1965 .... uuurgghh ... :-)

thanks for that Bim G

.. they also had a veryyyyyyy nice 1969 automatic chronograph Sportstimer with a blue dial :-) ... almost made you wish you were born in 1969 ??? eerrr ? Bim

yep great chrono's from 69 onwards.

Your 64 theme continues to grow..!! I also have a new piece arriving tomorrow....one that I have considered for some time then thought I would get it at the weekend:) Speak soon dude, Andy.

are you going to enlighten us as to what it is?

:)

its a Jacob and Co full of diamonds and cheap movements ?

That\'s my opinion and I\'m sticking with it. Mike

hehe you are probably right, but i think i have the most important Seiko's now with 2 from Olympics, a GS, a 5 and a simple 66 calibre. best G

. . . waves hello . . . . . . from So Cal. :-) ...
