SEIKO 64's / 44 KING SEIKO

Introducing the Seiko " 44 King Seiko" made in 1964 .

"King Seiko" (hereinafter referred to as KS ) was released by Daini Seikosha (Kameido Factory) in 1961 based on the philosophy of "creating a Japanese-made watch with precision that rivals Swiss watches."

The year before, Suwa Seikosha had released the "Grand Seiko" (hereafter referred to as GS ). While GS aimed to be the " best wristwatch, " KS was a model that maintained high precision while achieving a more reasonable price by simplifying some of the design and specifications.

For this reason, it is sometimes considered a "cheap version" compared to the GS , but the movement it is equipped with is smaller yet boasts the same level of precision as the GS .

King Seiko is considered to be the pinnacle of Seiko's lineup alongside Grand Seiko.
Its capabilities and presence make it worthy of being called a masterpiece representing Japan.

"King Seiko" was born as a luxury model of Seiko on par with Grand Seiko.
This model is a famous piece known as the " 44 King Seiko," equipped with an early 44 series movement.

The dial is a silver dial with a delicate sunburst finish.
The sharp, lustrous radial light creates a rich range of expressions depending on the viewing angle.

The index is a beautifully beveled, three-dimensional bar index, and its carefully polished shine accentuates the vintage elegance.

Particularly eye-catching is the cross-lined index at the 12 o'clock position.
The intricate lattice pattern sparkles in the light, giving it a subtle yet highly decorative feel.

The case features sharp chamfers and edgy lugs, and its beautiful design evokes the high level of processing technology that Seiko was proud of at the time.
It has a classic yet contemporary sophisticated beauty.

The " 44 King Seiko" is a watch that perfectly combines functional beauty and decorative beauty.

The movement is a hand-wound movement with 25 jewels.

This model does not have a caliber number, which is common in early models.
Another distinctive feature is the sickle-shaped lever attached to the top, which is the second hand regulating device.
As a high-end machine, it not only achieves high precision, but is also durable, easy to maintain, and built with an emphasis on practicality.

Even those who are handling vintage watches for the first time can use it with confidence.

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

When selling antique watches at RESUME, we do not immediately hand over the watch to you upon receiving your order. Instead, we ask a professional craftsman to overhaul it (hereinafter referred to as OH) and deliver it 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 properly repair the product, but there will be a fee. If there is no repair shop near you, please feel free to contact us.
