1968 Seiko KS Hi-Beat 36000 Ref. 45-7000

Overall Notes:
- Cosmetic Condition: B+ (Gently worn with light signs of use and minor scratches).
- The watch is in excellent working condition, with all functions operating flawlessly.
- All components are authentic Seiko, except the replaced strap and buckle.

Operating State:
- The movement has been serviced (disassembly, cleaning, lubrication and regulation).
- Keeping time precisely.

Condition Notes:
- Case: shows moderate wear consistent with age and use. There are visible scratches and scuff marks throughout the case surfaces, particularly noticeable on the polished flanks and bevels. The case retains its overall shape well with no major dents or damage, though the finish has softened from the original crisp polish.
- Dial: original and has developed an attractive warm brown patina over time. The dial has aged from its original silver to a creamy champagne tone, with the warm browning most pronounced toward the outer edge and across the lower half of the dial. The aging is even and organic, giving the watch a distinctive vintage character. The applied SEIKO logo, baton markers, and KS Hi-Beat text remain sharp and well defined, with no flaking or damage to the dial surface.
- Crystal: is in good condition with minimal visible scratches. It maintains good clarity and transparency, allowing clear visibility of the dial beneath. Any surface marks are minor and don't significantly impact the overall appearance or functionality.
