Hi Guys,
These don't come up often and are the cheap way to get yourself into the KS hi-beat world. A little less popular than their sought after cousins, the VANAC series were very edgy in their styling. This one is a lot less edgy and more attractive than some of the others. These are pure JDM and I purchased this example straight from Japan a few years ago. I'm never going to get round to servicing it, much less wearing it, so I'd rather someone else enjoyed it.
The dial is a radial blue/black with silver batons. It looks amazing in the sun. The crystal is the OEM faceted crystal. There are a few dings in it, but the facets are still pretty sharp and it hasn't been polished. You don't really notice them unless you are looking for them.
The movement is clean and runs happily but is due for a service. The day/date quickset works as it should and hasn't been repaired with anything dodgy. It's just a good honest, clean watch. Being the 5626, it's the chronometer grade version of the Lord-Matic. I've got these regulated down to +/- 2 seconds a day in 3 positions, they are just phenomenal. The beat rate is 28800bph.
Case is free of any major damage and hasn't been polished. Being hooded lugs, you can put nearly anything on it and it will look great.
As with my other sales, if you want it serviced and/or the gaskets done I can do that for you as well.
