Seiko D229-5010 Vintage Alarm Chronograph Digital Watch, JDM, Running, Original Bracelet


You are looking at a genuine vintage Seiko D229-5010 Alarm Chronograph, a sought-after Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) digital from the late 1970s. This is a fully functioning timepiece with a working LCD display showing time, day, date, alarm, timer, and stopwatch functions. The watch ships with its original Seiko stainless steel bracelet and is a must-have piece for serious vintage digital collectors.


Case size measures 43.2mm wide and 13.4mm thick — a bold, commanding wrist presence by any standard. The bracelet currently fits a wrist up to approximately 6 inches, with room for adjustment depending on link removal needs.


Features include Alarm, Timer, Stopwatch (STOP.W), and Time modes, selectable via the four front-mounted push buttons. The left side features Select/Light and Start/Stop pushers, with the Sound On/Off crown on the right. The dial reads "ALARM CHRONOGRAPH" and "JAPAN D229-5010CD." The caseback is engraved "SEIKO / WATER RESISTANT / 101519 / JAPAN-M / PDP ST. STEEL BACK / D229-5010."


Condition — Based on Photos:

The LCD is clear and functioning. The case shows honest vintage wear consistent with its age — notable pitting and surface marks are visible on the case sides and caseback, particularly evident in the close-up photos. The crown shows wear. The bracelet links display light scratching and oxidation typical of a watch of this era. The crystal has minor haziness but the display remains fully legible. This is a solid, working vintage piece that presents well from the front and wears its age with character. Offered in as-found vintage condition.


Shipping is same day or 1 business day. Item is carefully and securely packed for safe transit.

All listings are AS-IS. I have made every effort possible to describe the item in this listing accurately. All the items I sell are authentic and in working order unless otherwise noted as parts. By bidding on this item, you completely accept these terms. I pack items I sell extremely well. I make no statement whatsoever about support for watch function after the item has left my warehouse. In addition, every watch that I list on eBay has been photographed extensively and been videoed. This means that once the watch leaves my warehouse, it is in the same identical shape as described in the listing. I will not take back a watch and return especially one that has been tampered with previously nor falsely declaring that a watch is not working, when the proof says otherwise. Do not leave negative feedback as a means of leverage over me. I will willingly work with every buyer to assist with issues that arise, or if by chance a 30- or 40-year old vintage watch decided to be unstable. If you choose to leave negative feedback as a means of gaining leverage over me to mischaracterize the accuracy of the listing, you will face overwhelming proof on my side that the item listed was in the shape as described in the description and I WILL CONTACT eBAY WITH OVERWHELMING PROOF THAT THE ITEM WAS ACCURATELY DESCRIBED AT THE TIME OF THE LISTING.
