Vintage King Seiko HiBeat 5625-7080 1970
A great example of a King Seiko Hi-Beat with reference 5625-7080. A great example with great cosmetic condition case, untouched dial and KS medallion in good shape.
The 35mm case is in original and in good shape, showing scratches and signs of wear. It appears to have been polished it the past because some of the factory brushing on the front lugs is not visible anymore. I love this case design, slightly appearing "fat" due to the lugs and case.
With a 41mm lug-to-lug it wears relatively big for it's case diameter. It is paired here with a aftermarket brown leather strap bracelet that goes well and can be easily adjusted.
It's a very early 1970 example so it has the gold plated KS Medallion and has a nice recessed 'KS' signed (original) crown.
The watch has a replaced aftermarket hardlex with no scratches. The watch is working great, runs +3s/d with 223 amplitude and 0.7ms beat error. Note: The day quickset is broken, can only be set manually by turning.
This is model 56KAC 110 from the 1971 Catalog costing ¥23,000
