Seiko 889980 (6602-9960), "Dress Alpinist", fully serviced, original!
A very nice example of one of Seiko’s lovely hand-wind dress watches from the 1960s. This variant uses the same layout / dial / handset style as the first-generation Alpinist, but with an added date complication. Solid original condition. Minimal plating wear. Dial and hands are good with some marks to the dial. The light green Daini-style lume is unstained & bright. Fully serviced last month.
