A captivating example of Seiko's golden era of design, this Lord Matic reference 5606-7230 perfectly encapsulates the daring aesthetics of the 1970s. Featuring a mesmerizing faceted crystal that plays with light over a striking blue dial, this timepiece is a testament to the brand's innovative spirit and mastery of dynamic watchmaking. The Lord Matic line was positioned just below the Grand Seiko and King Seiko tiers, offering sophisticated movements and exceptional finishing that remain highly sought after by collectors today.

Brand: Seiko
Model: Lord Matic
Reference Number: 5606-7230
Serial Number: 241490
Movement: Automatic caliber 5606A, 23 jewels
Dial: Striking blue sunburst dial with applied faceted indices, exceptionally clean and vibrant
Case Size: 36 mm (excluding the crown)
Case Material: Stainless steel
Production Year: 1972
Condition: Excellent vintage condition with normal signs of wear and a beautifully preserved dial

Dial and Hands
The dial is an absolute standout, featuring a rich blue sunburst finish that shifts dynamically depending on the lighting. It remains in exceptionally clean condition, free from notable spotting, moisture damage, or discoloration. The applied faceted silver-tone indices catch the light brilliantly, complementing the applied Seiko and LM logos. The framed day-date aperture at the three o'clock position adds practical functionality while maintaining the dial's balanced symmetry. The polished baton hands are well-preserved, showing only the lightest signs of natural aging, remaining highly legible against the vibrant blue backdrop.

Case and Crystal
The 36 mm stainless steel case features a classic tonneau silhouette with a distinct C-shape profile, characteristic of 1970s Seiko design. The case retains strong lines with contrasting brushed upper surfaces on the lugs and brightly polished flanks, exhibiting honest, moderate wear consistent with its age. The standout architectural feature is the faceted crystal, which provides a dramatic visual depth to the dial. The crystal displays visible surface scratches and edge wear, particularly along the lower perimeter, which is typical for these highly elevated, multi-planed vintage crystals, yet it continues to offer a spectacular viewing experience. The original recessed crown sits neatly at the three o'clock position.

Movement
Powering this timepiece is the Seiko caliber 5606A, a highly regarded 23-jewel automatic movement known for its reliability and refinement. The movement is clearly signed and presents cleanly, with the rotor and bridges showing appropriate factory finishing. Performing well within expected vintage tolerances; running strong and steady. The timegrapher result indicates a performance of -26s-30s/day, reflecting the robust nature of this classic Japanese caliber.

Strap
The watch is fitted with a period-correct, black textured leather strap featuring contrasting brown stitching. The strap complements the vintage character of the stainless steel case and the deep blue dial, providing a comfortable and secure fit for the wearer, fastened by a classic stainless steel pin buckle.

Condition
This Lord Matic is presented in excellent vintage condition. The case shows honest, light superficial marks indicative of normal wear over the decades, without any signs of heavy over-polishing. The vibrant blue dial is remarkably well-preserved, showing no visible flaws or degradation. The faceted crystal exhibits expected scratches and edge wear, adding to the authentic vintage character of the piece without obstructing the dial's beauty. The caseback engravings, including the reference and serial number 241490, remain clear and legible.

Dimensions
The stainless steel case measures 36 mm in diameter excluding the crown, offering a classic and versatile vintage profile that wears comfortably on a variety of wrist sizes.

Remarks
The Seiko Lord Matic series represents an incredible value proposition in vintage watch collecting, combining high-grade mechanical movements with some of the most adventurous case and crystal designs of the era. The combination of the faceted crystal and the brilliant blue dial makes this specific reference 5606-7230 a highly desirable configuration for enthusiasts of Japanese horology.

History
Introduced in the late 1960s, the Seiko Lord Matic line was designed to offer the sophisticated technology and elegant styling of the King Seiko and Grand Seiko models to a broader audience. Utilizing the advanced 56-series movements, the Lord Matic became a cornerstone of Seiko's catalog in the 1970s. These watches are celebrated for their distinctive design language, often incorporating unique case shapes, vibrant dials, and intricate faceted crystals that perfectly captured the forward-looking optimism of the era.
