Dial and Hands
The vibrant green sunburst dial exhibits pronounced depth and characteristic Seiko color play, with sunray brushing radiating from the center. Applied indices and original LM branding add vintage appeal. Visible age-related marks and patina throughout the dial lend character and authenticity. The original silver hands remain well-preserved, with lume plots having aged to a warm, creamy hue, underscoring its vintage character. The day-date display at 3 o’clock stays crisp and fully legible.
Case and Crystal
The stainless steel case features bold, angular lines typical of 1970s Seiko designs, with a clean brushed finish and highlighted faceting. Light surface scratches and gentle, even wear are present, reflecting careful use over decades. The crystal is free from major blemishes, with only minor scuffs consistent with age.

Based on timegrapher results, it is running at -54 to -60 seconds per day, indicating the movement is fully operational and could benefit from future regulation for optimal precision.
