Now is your opportunity to own a legitimate piece of history: we have a very, VERY rare Seiko "Seikosha" WW2 era Imperial Japanese army-issue watch in RUNNING shape. It's in fantastic shape, despite the age and potential combat use it saw. Quite small, it stands around 30mm. It has an interior section, the crystal and bezel can be removed to reveal a smaller sub-crystal with the watch inside. We believe this was the model that had the flip-up section on the original leather band. Most likely used by a pilot or bomber crew. Runs very well, assuming it's been serviced at some point due to the age. Appears to be all original. Has some Japanese script on the back of the case alongside the serial number (4477c and 1019 stamped, Kanji appears hand engraved). All in all, it's a very cool piece of history and militaria. The star indicates ground forces. Other Seikosha models from the same era have anchors for navy and sakura for Kamikaze and other high-risk units.
It's difficult to find any information on these. There are few surviving and even fewer that still run. Please message us for more info! The item "Ultra Rare Seiko SKS 1019, Imperial Army Star Seikosha 1940s, runs! Vintage WWII" is in sale since Monday, October 29, 2018.
