This Seiko Velatura, which dates to August 2007, has a pristine dial and lume on both the dial and hands that emits a glow in darkness.  The fixed bezel shows honest wear as does the massive case.  The outer edge of the case back is stamped "SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL   ST.STEEL 7T62-OHDO   WATER RESISTANT 10BAR   MOVEMENT JAPAN AO" with "SEIKO" followed by "VELATURA" and "784773" stamped in the center.  The crystal has some tiny chips that can only be seen under high magnification.  


While I normally show pictures of the movements of watches I put up for sale my watchmaker torqued the case back too tight for me to remove after installing a new battery in June 2023.  The movement keeps accurate time, the date wheel rolls over at 12 am, the alarm performs as expected and all chronograph functions work perfectly as they should.  Given that the movement has never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended.

This watch measures approximately 42 mm excluding the crown, approximately 50 mm including the crown and approximately 29 mm between the flared lugs.  Case thickness, measured from the bottom of the case back to the top of the bezel, is approximately 11 mm.  The crystal adds no thickness.  This watch comes on its original stainless steel with black accented bracelet which fits my approximate 6.5 inch wrist perfectly when set on the loosest clasp/buckle setting.  No spare links are included so this bracelet will not accommodate a wrist larger than approximately 6.5 inches. 

Although the movement received a new battery in June 2023 given that it has never been serviced a complete overhaul is recommended.  As such there are no warranties, express or implied, attached with the sale of this watch.  Vintage means old and while my personal belief is that old-school means better quality and workmanship, things can and do go wrong from time to time.  Any servicing costs going forward are your responsibility.

Please thoroughly read this entire listing and kindly ask any and all questions you may have prior to buying as this sale is final and no refunds of any kind will be given.  And please study the 12 high magnification pictures carefully as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this watch.

Expedited and insured shipping along with signature confirmation will be provided.  Thanks for looking!
