► SELLER'S DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is a Rare Vintage Seiko Sportsmatic 7625-8140 Men’s 17J Dress Sports Watch JDM 1960s. Produced for the Japan Domestic Market (JDM), the Sportsmatic line represents an important chapter in Seiko’s early automatic watchmaking history, combining dependable mechanical movements with elegant mid-century styling. This completely original and unrestored example offers an excellent opportunity for restoration. The watch is being sold for parts and repair as it is currently not running. It is completely unrestored and is being sold exactly as found. It will require a service in order to operate properly. All parts of the watch are original. The watch has signs of use and age consistent with a vintage timepiece. With a replacement crystal, a careful polish, and a proper mechanical service, I believe this watch has the potential to be completely transformed. The photos best describe its physical condition and should be reviewed carefully prior to purchase.
