Seiko - 没有保留价 - Emblem Automatic 2409-3050 - 男士 - 1975

Introduction

Offered here is a distinctive vintage SEIKO Emblem Automatic Ref. 2409-3050, believed to have been manufactured in September 1975.

One of the key attractions of this model is its high-beat Seiko Calibre 2409 automatic movement, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. This higher-frequency movement reflects Seiko’s technical ambition during the 1970s and adds an important mechanical point of interest for collectors.

Combined with its sharply sculpted rectangular stainless-steel case, silver-toned dial, day-date display and original SEIKO stainless-steel bracelet, the watch has a strong and unmistakable 1970s character.

Historical & Collector Value

The Emblem represents an interesting chapter in Seiko’s history during the 1970s, a period in which the company was developing both advanced mechanical movements and groundbreaking quartz technology.

This example is powered by the Seiko Cal. 2409 high-beat automatic movement, running at 28,800 vibrations per hour / 8 beats per second.

For a vintage mechanical watch of this era, the high-beat specification is an especially appealing feature. A higher oscillation frequency was associated with Seiko’s pursuit of improved stability and precision, and it gives the movement a noticeably smoother seconds-hand motion than many lower-frequency automatic watches of the period.

For collectors, this combination of high-beat mechanical engineering, distinctive 1970s case design, day-date functionality and original SEIKO bracelet gives the 2409-3050 a character beyond that of a conventional vintage dress watch.

The case-back serial number is 592694. Based on Seiko’s serial-number convention together with the known production period of Ref. 2409-3050, this example is believed to date from September 1975.

Condition

Considering its age and estimated production date in 1975, the watch remains in good overall vintage condition.

Despite these signs of age, the distinctive case shape, original bracelet and overall appearance have been well preserved for a watch of this period.

The ageing has not been concealed, and the photographs form an important part of the condition description. Please examine all images carefully for the exact cosmetic condition.

The original SEIKO bracelet remains fitted to the watch and shows age-related wear consistent with the rest of the piece.

All functions have been checked and the watch is currently operating.
