History
Introduced in the late sixties, the Seiko Lord Matic line was positioned just below the King Seiko and Grand Seiko ranges, offering refined design and high-quality automatic movements to a broader audience. The 5600 series calibers became a highly successful foundation for Seiko during this period, known for their slim profile and reliable day-date functionality. Today, examples featuring vibrant colored dials and faceted crystals are highly appreciated by collectors for their distinctive period character.
