SEIKO Sportsmatic 5 - Vintage 1966 Automatic Watch PRODUCT DESCRIPTION SEIKO Sportsmatic 5 - a historically significant timepiece from Japan's world-renowned manufacture. The Seiko 5, which debuted in the 1960s, became a global bestseller with five groundbreaking features: automatic winding, water resistance, day-date display, crown at 4 o'clock position, and a robust case. These innovations (inherited from the first model) established the foundation for modern business watches. This example showcases an elegant presence with its beautiful fluted bezel and refined gold-tone case. The crown embedded at the 4 o'clock position exemplifies the confidence of automatic winding technology—no manual winding required.
