The guru on boxes, packaging, tags, etc., is on Instagram and goes by the name of Horace Henn. He's an avid (understatement) UK collector of this vintage Seiko stuff.

Ow WOW horacehenn - you've got to have a time machine in your possession because this collection of yours seems impossible to put together any other way than by going back in time and buying them yourself. Bravo!

That’s the box for the first ever model Seiko 5 - the J13081 from 1963. The later box is the one with the flap in the lid for the larger instruction manual. The J13081 had a small manual with clear plastic cover |

Really jealous of the Vanac and the 9983 in particular.
Soon after I started buying from Y!.jp a while back, I won an auction for two Vanacs w/ box and papers. Of course it was a scam, and a few weeks later Buyee refunded my monies. I keep my eyes out, and while I see Vanac boxes fairly often (though usually without the outer sleeve), I have not seen them mated with their watches. And the 9983 - wow! I would be hard pressed to pass on that if I saw it up for bid.
