My 1st 18k Japanese dress watch
I just bought this Seiko Chariot in Quimper, French Brittany. This is a random purchase lol. I've just felt un love with the simplicity of this watch and basically this great opportunity.
This model is dated from 1973 and it is powered by the (high beat) mechanical caliber 2220. The linen dial is in very good condition and im actually surprised how readable it still is when it gets darker. Dimension wise we are around 36mm and the thickness is 6mm
One of the reason of my purchase is.. you guessed it : the 18k gold case. I've never met a Seiko in gold.
So what do you think : Is it a keeper, How rare it is ?
