Description from the seller

Presented for auction by Second Vintage

This exceptional Seikomatic 26J, reference 6206-8080, showcases Seiko’s mid-century expertise in automatic watchmaking. Featuring a refined silver sunburst dial, crisp applied indices, and a sharply fluted bezel, this piece embodies timeless style and an impressive 37mm wrist presence. A recent timegrapher result of -1 to -5 seconds per day with strong amplitude further demonstrates its outstanding mechanical health. Rarely found in this level of original preservation, this Seikomatic offers vintage collectors a rare opportunity to acquire one of Seiko’s most desirable classics.

The framed day-date display at 3 o’clock completes the classic Seikomatic look.

Case and Crystal
