► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is a rare vintage Seiko 5 Sportsmatic 13081 men’s 21-jewel automatic dress watch, produced for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM) during the 1960s. This classic early Sportsmatic 5 features an elegant gold-tone case, a beautifully detailed dial, and the timeless styling that makes these early Seiko automatic models so desirable among vintage collectors.
The watch is in full working condition and is running and holding accurate time over a 24-hour period.
The watch is fitted with a unique gold-tone bracelet that complements the case and overall design extremely well. I am unsure if the bracelet is original to the watch, but it is an excellent match and looks fantastic when paired with the watch. All other parts of the watch are original.
The watch is in good vintage physical condition with signs of use and age consistent with a timepiece from the 1960s. The dial presents beautifully, while the gold-tone case and bracelet give the watch a distinctive and elegant vintage appearance. The photos best describe its physical condition and should be reviewed carefully prior to purchase.
