Brand: Seiko
Model: Lord Matic (LM)
Reference Number: 5606-8130
Serial Number: 5N8233
Movement: Seiko automatic caliber 5606, 23 jewels
Dial: Gradient green sunburst, gold hour markers, gold hands, day-date at 3 o’clock
Case Size: 36 mm (excluding the crown)
Case Material: Stainless steel
Production Year: 1975
Condition: Excellent vintage condition with sharp case lines, minor light surface wear consistent with age. Timegrapher result: -14s/day, indicating healthy movement running within vintage tolerances.
Dial and Hands
The dial features a striking gradient green sunburst that transitions from a deep emerald at the edges to a lighter shade at the center. Gold applied hour markers and faceted hands offer a sophisticated contrast against the vivid dial. The “LM” and “23 Jewels” signatures, paired with the crisp day-date window featuring Kanji/English display at 3 o’clock, exemplify vintage Seiko elegance. Lume plots and hands show an attractive, even patina, adding authentic vintage character.
Case and Crystal
The 36 mm stainless steel case retains its original angular facets and brushed top surfaces, with polished chamfers remaining crisp. Very minimal surface wear is visible, and the striking case lines and integrated feel underscore the quality construction of 1970s Seiko design. The crystal is clear, displaying only negligible marks not distracting from wear or display.
Movement
Powered by Seiko’s caliber 5606 automatic movement with 23 jewels, this watch offers reliable vintage performance. The provided timegrapher reading of -14 seconds per day reflects a healthy movement consistent with careful maintenance and correct running within vintage tolerances.
