Pre-owned 1950s Seiko Super wristwatch, with a 15-jewel manual-winding movement, fitted with a new B

A SEIKO SUPER wristwatch manufactured in the 1950s, a landmark model in Seiko's history.

This model occupies an important place in Japanese horological history, celebrated for its pioneering postwar design featuring a central seconds hand in a three-hand configuration. The dial bears the classic "S" emblem at 12 o'clock, complemented by applied gold-tone hour markers and cleanly styled hands, lending the watch a distinctly vintage elegance.

The "S" emblem at 12 o'clock is characteristic of Seiko wristwatches from the early to mid-1950s. This model is particularly sought after by collectors of vintage Japanese domestic wristwatches.

Powered by a precision 15-jewel manually wound movement engraved "SEIKOSHA THREE 3 ADJUSTED". The interior of the case back is decorated with fine perlage, reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship of the period.
