商品説明
This is the second King Seiko model, the non-date "44-9990" which appeared in 1964.
King Seiko is a series positioned at the top, alongside Seiko's highest-grade watch, the Grand Seiko, and was manufactured until the 1970s.
The second model features a hack function (a second-hand stop device), which was omitted in the first model.
Practicality has been improved by adopting a screw-down screw-back on the case back (stainless steel models only).
This particular piece is a later version of the second model.
The design of the medallion on the case back of the second model was changed in stages.
Initially, the King Seiko "shield mark" was used, and around 1967, it was changed to a simple design with only "SEIKO" written on it.
This particular piece is the final model manufactured in 1968, with a Kameido (Daini Seikosha) mark under the SEIKO logo.
