Watch is in good condition with desk diving marks on the bracelet clasp.

Seiko SNDA63 Orange Velatura

Seiko SNDA63 Orange Velatura
Movement : 7T92 Quartz Chrono.
Dial : Orange with date display.
Diameter : 50mm with crown.
Lug size : 26mm.
Strap : Rubber strap with signed Seiko buckle.
Includes : Watch and manual. No box.

Description : This is one of my favourite chronos from Seiko. It is one of the few Seiko models in it’s price range that comes with sapphire crystal instead of the usual hardlex crystal that Seiko uses. The case back has service markers that gives you an indication of the next recommended battery change.

The chrono buttons have screw lock, you need to unlock it to use the buttons. However on this watch, only the chrono start/stop button lock is working. The chrono reset button no longer unlocks. The button still works though and you can just push the button to reset the chrono without unlocking.

Price : SOLD. Gone to a better place on 14 February 2012.
