Seiko - Cronos - No reserve price - 14053 - Men - 1958

The Cronos was launched in 1958 as the first three-hand men’s watch manufactured at the Daini-Seikosha Kameido factory. It was thinner than the models commonly available at the time, offered excellent performance, and featured a refined design. By eliminating the balance screw and improving the balance-wheel bearings, Seiko created a movement that was even thinner than those in the Marvel series, while also being highly accurate. This slim, understated design later inspired the King Seiko collection and the 44GS in 1967. This elegant model is distinguished by its refined, thin bezel, slender hands, and long, clean, three-dimensional hour markers. The logo’s typeface is particularly elegant, too.
This watch has a history befitting its age and use. It is especially important to remember that you are buying an antique, original watch; it is not a new watch. Our watch remains in original condition, with the exception of the strap. It has high collectible value. A new, handmade genuine leather strap with a vintage look has been fitted to the watch.
