► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is a Rare Vintage Seiko Laurel J14004 men’s classic dress watch, produced for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM) in the 1950s. Powered by a Seikosha 17-jewel manual wind movement, the Seiko Laurel is one of the brand’s iconic early post-war dress watches, known for its elegant styling, dependable mechanical movement, and important place in Seiko’s watchmaking history. The watch is being sold for parts and repair as the second hand becomes caught on the minute hand during operation. Beyond this issue, the watch appears to be running properly, but it will require service before it can be relied upon for normal use. The watch is in good vintage physical condition with signs of use and age. The photos best describe its physical condition and should be reviewed carefully.

► ARCHIVE FILE: SEIKO — BRAND HISTORY

From Kintaro Hattori's 1881 Tokyo shop, Seiko grew into a vertically integrated manufacturer that reshaped both mechanical and electronic watchmaking. Grand Seiko, landmark dive watches, the 6139 automatic chronograph, and the 1969 Astron quartz watch chart a history of relentless competition and invention that left an unusually broad vintage catalog.
