Astron GPS Solar Dual-Time Black Dial Titanium | (8X53-00IK / 8X53-0AS0-2)
Product Overview
The SEIKO Astron GPS Solar is a pinnacle of high-tech Japanese watchmaking, representing the world’s first global-connectivity solar timepiece network. Powered by the advanced Caliber 8X53, this watch automatically connects to the GPS satellite network with a simple push of a button, adjusting perfectly to your local time zone anywhere on Earth with atomic-clock precision. This sophisticated model features a dual-time display layout at the 6 o'clock position (with an AM/PM indicator), a retrograde day-of-the-week indicator, and a perpetual calendar. Encased in high-density, scratch-resistant titanium paired with a matching titanium bracelet and a beautiful black ceramic city-code bezel, it offers an incredibly lightweight, robust, and luxurious presence on the wrist.

[Condition Report]
This timepiece is in full working order with all electronic and GPS components operating correctly.
Case & Bezel: The titanium case and ceramic city-code bezel are in very nice condition. There are normal superficial scuffs and minor light scratches on the titanium surfaces from regular usage, but no deep dings or heavy impacts. The ceramic bezel remains clean and glossy.
Crystal (Glass): The sapphire crystal is clear and in clean condition with only faint, microscopic marks from general handling that do not impede visibility.
Band/Bracelet: The titanium bracelet shows standard scuffs and light desk-diving marks from everyday regular wear, but it remains tight, structurally secure, and fully operational.
Movement / Functionality / Button Operations:
Operational Status: Running perfectly. The solar cell charges normally, and the watch keeps exact time.
Upper-Right Button Function: When pressed, the second hand correctly moves to indicate the "N" (No / Not Received) status register, confirming successful system-state communication (Operation OK).
Lower-Right Button Function: When pressed, the second hand correctly aligns to the 14-second position and the multi-indicator hand points to DST (Daylight Saving Time) status registers, demonstrating that the manual status-checking functions operate perfectly according to factory specifications (Operation OK).
[Important Disclaimers - Please Read Before Purchasing]
No Warranty : As this is a pre-owned item, it is sold "as-is" with no operational warranty.
Testing & Accuracy : While we have verified the current operational status and crown movement, we have not conducted long-term accuracy tests or detailed inspections of all sub-functions not writen. These are excluded from any liability.
For solar-powered or battery-powered models, the remaining battery life of used batteries or power cells is unknown. Additionally, even if a solar-powered watch has been tested for proper operation, it may have stopped running by the time it is delivered due to a lack of charge, so please charge it yourself for some days before use.
