AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Yes, it’s time for another review of a classic Japanese watch! The Seiko Skyliner 6620-9970 we’re looking at today is a truly beautiful example. Dating from 1965, this watch may not say much on its own, but it reinforces my belief that the mid-1960s were a magical period for Seiko. Many iconic models, such as the 62MAS, 44GS, and 6159, first appeared during that time. Seiko had left its days of imitating other brands behind and began developing its own identity. In the process, the brand also created a number of very elegant, but largely forgotten, watches. Here it is: the Skyliner…
The watch shows signs of wear due to its age. This is perfectly normal, as it dates from the 1960s. In fact, watches like this become more valuable over the years. A new, handmade vintage leather strap has been fitted to the watch.
