Greetings,
Offered up for sale is a brilliant Grand Seiko GS Chronometer 43999 from November 1963, with gold Lion medallion back and manual wind caliber 430. Stainless steel case measures 37mm wide with 19mm lugs. Case is in excellent condition with no dings or dents to note. The caseback writing in excellent, and the gold Lion medallion is superb, nice and crisp. The original silver dial is mint, as are the steel dauphine hands. NOS correct crown has a nice fresh gasket so it seals well. The manual wind caliber 430 Chronometer movement is clean and runs perfectly, keeping time. Movement hacks, and quickset date works as it should. Original acrylic crystal is excellent. Overall superb example of this stunning 2nd Grand Seiko. It doesn't get any more classic than this, and you'll be hard pressed to find a nicer example. Watch comes as head only, no strap.
Price is SOLD $1350 shipped in the US, PP no fees to me. Overseas buyers welcome, but at buyers risk and additional cost depending on shipping method. More references than you can shake a stick at, PM me if interested.
Cheers,
