Seiko Lord Matic (LM) automatic day-date wristwatch, reference 5606-5120, with a square case, cut glass crystal and green gradient dial, produced in 1973. Overview A beautifully preserved 1970s square-cased Seiko Lord Matic from the Suwa Seikosha factory. The green gradient dial is a striking two-tone design: dark green at the edges brightening towards a champagne-green vertical panel through the centre. Gold applied bar indices with black inlays and gold hands complement the warm tones, with a gold-framed day-date window at 3 o'clock and kanji (Japanese) day wheel (Sunday in red). The faceted cut glass crystal — bevelled on four sides around a flat centre — sits over a multi-faceted square case mixing polished and brushed finishes. Powered by the Seiko 5606 automatic movement with 25 jewels.
