Seiko Seikomatic-R, 8305-1010


Age: January, 1967

Dimensions: 38mm wide, 20mm lugs

Features: Date, 30 jewel movement, Applied bullet hour markers, Sunburst patterned dial, Glass crystal, Waterproof

Notes: This is a very sleek watch. It must have been considered big for it's age, but it sits gracefully on the wrist as the lugs gently curve downward. The dial is a great blueish-gray with a sunburst pattern and lines drawn to quarter the face. The hour markers are unique and substantial. And the 30 jewel movement keeps the second hand ticking smoothly around its path.
