Seiko Crown Diashock Ref. J15003E, a 1960s manual-wind dress watch with a silver dial, gold-plated case, 34 mm, and leather strap.
Description from the seller
[Introduction]
This Seiko Crown Diashock Ref. J15003E represents one of Seiko’s most refined dress watch designs from the early 1960s. With its clean silver dial, gold-tone case, and understated elegance, it appeals strongly to collectors seeking a classic, mechanically reliable vintage Seiko.
[Historical & Collector Value]
The Seiko Crown line holds an important place in Seiko’s history, serving as the foundation for later landmark models such as the Seiko Crown Chronograph (1964 Tokyo Olympics) and the early Grand Seiko developments.
This Diashock 21-jewel variant demonstrates Seiko’s pursuit of reliability and precision in the pre-quartz era. Its minimalistic aesthetic, slim profile, and beautifully balanced dial make it a desirable piece for enthusiasts who appreciate early Japanese mechanical craftsmanship.
