SEIKO 73's 5 ACTUS Cai.6106C

Introducing the Seiko " 5 Actus" made in 1973 .

" ACTUS " means "action" in Latin, and this model was sold targeting young people at the time.

The 5 Actus attracted a lot of attention because it was highly practical, with automatic winding, waterproofing, and a day-date function, yet was also affordable and had a stylish appearance.

In addition, in response to changes in people's lifestyles, the company actively promoted the product by using young people in its advertisements, and as a result, the product became a huge hit, especially among the younger generation at the time.

Furthermore, the " SS " at the 6 o'clock position is an abbreviation for Second Setting .

" 5Actus " comes in a variety of designs.

The watch we are introducing this time is one that has an attractive, calm atmosphere expressed by the blue dial on the face.
The blue dial features a deep blue gradient reminiscent of the deep sea.

In addition, the dial has a sunray finish that reflects the light it receives in a radial pattern, so the color changes depending on the angle from which you view the watch.

Its beautiful blue dial evokes a mysterious scene, as if light was shining into the deep sea.

The case is a tonneau shape made of stainless steel .
Like other Actus series, the crown is stored inside the case at the 4 o'clock position, creating a beautiful silhouette that accentuates the case lines.

" 5 Actus" is designed with casual use in mind, making it easy to incorporate into your fashion accessories.

The movement is a 23 -jewel automatic, Cal. 6106C .

This movement is designed with everyday use in mind, and is equipped with a hack function to stop the second hand, a shock-resistant vibration device, and a calendar function.
Both the date and day of the week can be adjusted by turning the crown.
The days of the week are displayed in two languages: English and Japanese.

Even if you are a first-time vintage watch enthusiast, you can use it with confidence.

All watches sold in our store are internally inspected by a professional watch mechanic upon arrival and are only sold after being determined to be genuine, so you can use them with confidence.

When you purchase a watch, we will attach a new leather strap to it when you deliver it to you.
Please select the color you want from the order selection tab and place your order.
*For products that come with original watch straps or metal bands, the leather strap will not be attached and will be sent separately as a spare.
A special case for the watch will also be included with the shipment.

Please be sure to read the following information after purchasing an antique watch.

When selling antique watches at RESUME, we do not immediately hand them over to you when you place your order. Instead, we ask a professional craftsman to overhaul them (hereafter referred to as OH) and deliver them to you after the OH is completed. (This takes about 1 to 2 months.)

A professional craftsman with first-class watch repair technician qualifications will completely disassemble your watch, replace worn parts such as the internal gaskets, clean it, oil it, and perform a thorough overhaul, maintaining it to a daily accuracy of about ±1 minute.
When we deliver the machine, we will also send you our own overhaul certificate, which shows what kind of overhaul was performed, as well as photos of the machine being disassembled and maintained.

Of course, due to the nature of the product itself being a second-hand item, there is no guarantee that it will never break, but we ask for your understanding that we take this approach so that you can enjoy the original performance of the watch and use it with peace of mind in the future.

When you purchase a product, we offer a one-year warranty depending on the model. Even if the warranty period has expired, we will still repair the product for a fee. If there is no repair shop near you, please feel free to contact us.
