Seiko - Commemorative open-face quartz sub-seconds - 7550-0010 - 1980-1989

Introduction This is a Seiko Quartz open-face pocket watch featuring a bold white dial with Arabic numerals and a sub-seconds register at the 6 o'clock position, powered by a Japanese-made quartz movement with five jewels. The exterior caseback carries an engraved commemorative inscription reading 高崎駅開業100周年記念 — 'Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Opening of Takasaki Station' — along with the date 59.5.1 (1 May 1984, Showa 59), making this a documented commemorative piece issued to mark that railway milestone. The caseback also features a chrysanthemum crest motif and the Seiko reference 7550-0010 with movement caliber details. Historical / Era context Takasaki Station, located in Gunma Prefecture, is one of Japan's major inland rail hubs; its centenary in 1984 was a significant occasion in Japanese railway history, and commemorative pocket watches of this type were produced by Seiko as presentation or commemorative gifts. The caliber 7550 is a Seiko quartz pocket-watch movement produced from the late 1970s into the 1980s, continuing Seiko's long tradition of supplying high-quality open-face pocket watches to Japanese institutions and railways. The five-jewel quartz movement reflects the efficient, reliable design philosophy of Seiko's quartz era, and the open-face format with its large Arabic numerals follows the classic Japanese railway-style pocket-watch aesthetic. The caseback date stamp of 59.5.1 (Showa 59, 1 May 1984) precisely documents when this watch was issued or presented. Condition The watch is running at the time of listing. Case: The chrome-plated case shows visible surface scratches, scuffs, and areas of plating wear consistent with age and use — particularly around the mid-band and caseback. The bow and crown are bright and intact. Overall the case remains solid with no dents or deformation. Dial: The white dial is clean and legible with all Arabic numerals crisp and well-defined. There is no significant staining or foxing visible; the dial presents well for its age. Crystal: The acrylic crystal is domed and shows light surface scratches consistent with age; clarity is reasonably good but the crystal is not pristine. No cracks are present. Movement: The watch is running and in good working order as confirmed. The internal caseback carries a battery-replacement sticker with a handwritten service notation. No accuracy issues are reported. Accessories: No original box, papers, or chain are included. The watch is offered as pictured. Please review all photographs carefully for the detailed condition.
