商品説明
This is the first model of the premier domestic brand, "Grand Seiko".
The first Grand Seiko model was produced only for three years, from 1960 to 1963.
This is a late-production model from 1963.
It is equipped with the "Cal. 3180" movement.
This was the first manual-winding caliber in a Seiko product to feature a "hacking function."
This piece features a rare original dial.
The "Grand Seiko" applied logo shines at the 12 o'clock position.
It is adorned with mirror-finished, multi-faceted hour and minute hands and solid gold indices, which cast an elegant glow.
The case is made of "14k gold-filled." The case back is a snap-back type.
It includes the lion medallion on the case back, which is the symbol of Grand Seiko.
The crown features the "S" mark.
Its basic, timeless design perfectly embodies the look of a classic antique watch.
Instructions
Manual Winding: Rotate clockwise with the crown in the normal position.
To wind the mainspring, please turn the crown clockwise slowly and carefully.
The crown will become firmer as it approaches a full wind.
Please be careful, as forcing the crown once the mainspring is fully wound can cause it to break.
How to pull out the crown: Insert a fingernail between the case and the crown, and use it as a lever.
Please remove the watch from your wrist before operating.
Handling it gently will reduce the strain on the crown.
Time Setting: Pull the crown out and rotate counter-clockwise.
The second hand will stop.
