Description from the seller
SEGA Captain Harlock / Albator Quartz Pocket Watch - Official Amusement Prize - Original Tin - 2013
This is a striking SEGA Captain Harlock quartz pocket watch, released as an official Japanese amusement prize in September 2013.
The timing is especially appealing for collectors, as it was released during the theatrical period of the full-CG film SPACE PIRATE CAPTAIN HARLOCK, which opened in Japan in September 2013.
Captain Harlock is one of the most iconic characters created by Leiji Matsumoto, and is also widely known as Albator in France, giving this piece especially strong appeal among European anime collectors.
Design
The pocket watch has a bold metallic design inspired by the world of Captain Harlock.
The front cover features a large raised skull-and-crossbones emblem surrounded by a gear-like border.
Opening the cover reveals a highly detailed black and metallic-gold dial featuring:
CAPTAIN HARLOCK
with the characteristic skull motif and mechanical / futuristic graphic design.
The combination of the dark metallic case, skull emblem and industrial-style dial gives the watch a particularly strong visual presence.
Official SEGA amusement prize
The original presentation tin is included.
The underside of the tin carries official Japanese markings including:
SEGA
and identifies the item as an amusement-exclusive prize item.
The original tin also carries the Captain Harlock artwork and period packaging design.
This is not a modern reproduction, but an original SEGA prize collectible from 2013.
Original unopened condition and battery replacement
The watch had originally remained unopened, secured only by the original seal.
For this listing, it was opened in order to install a fresh battery and confirm operation.
A new SR626SW / 377 silver-oxide battery was installed on 25 August 2026.
The watch is running properly at the time of listing.
Time setting is functioning normally.
Protective film
The original protective film remains attached to the crystal and has not been removed.
This is an especially attractive preservation detail and helps show how little the watch itself has been handled since new.
Movement
The watch uses a quartz movement.
A movement photograph was taken during battery replacement and is included for reference.
Original chain
The original-style metal pocket-watch chain is included.
Chain length: over 30 cm
The chain complements the heavy industrial / pirate design of the watch and allows the piece to be displayed in its complete pocket-watch form.
Dimensions and weight
Case diameter: approximately 58.6 mm
Watch weight without chain: approximately 46.7 g
Weight including chain: approximately 63.3 g
Condition
The watch itself is in near-mint condition.
It had remained unopened until this listing and was only opened for battery replacement and function testing.
The original protective film remains on the crystal.
The case and dial retain a very clean and attractive appearance.
The original presentation tin shows age-related wear, including scratches, surface deterioration and some rust / oxidation consistent with storage since 2013.
Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.
