Eric was very nice to deal with. His prices are a bit high, but his descriptions are accurate, his pictures a fairly complete, and he really packs the watch well. Here is his trademark box, tightly wrapped with tape. He thinks of it as weather protection, but I think of it as "tamper evident"! I wonder what his bubble-wrap budget is each year? Ooo, getting close. There we go, my latest 1955 Seiko, this one a very clean 15 jewel Super. Looks like the 12, 3, 6 and 9 were lumed, along with the hands. Gotta love the "S"!! The plain side. Check out the cool lugs! Drilled too! Nice! The case-back, which looks pretty good for SIXTY YEARS OLD!! Seems to run well, and I love the size. So comfortable and unobtrusive. I didn't have time for a full group shot, but here are my other three 1955 Seikos. Well, probably not too exciting for you, but I am quite happy!! Thanks for clicking in, I'll try and get another unveiling done tomorrow. - Thomas

Very nice. Are you trying to give Martin / Martback a run for his money for a Seiko museum collection
