Seiko Advan Automatic - 1974 - Red Textured Dial - Faceted Crystal - 6106-7710

This is a spectacular vintage Seiko Advan, reference 6106-7710, from 1974, a perfect embodiment of the bold and futuristic design language that defined the Advan line. Created for the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM), Advan models were known for their funky case shapes, vibrant dials, and unique features like the original faceted crystal on this example. The watch features a classic 70s case, housing a stunning red textured dial that catches the light beautifully. It's powered by the robust 25-jewel Seiko 6106 automatic movement, featuring a quickset day-date complication with both an English and Kanji day wheel. Crucially, it comes fitted with its rare and highly sought-after original Advan-signed bracelet.

The watch is presented in great overall vintage condition. The original faceted crystal is in great condition with only a few light marks; finding these intricate crystals without significant chips or damage is very difficult, making this a major highlight. The vibrant red textured dial is also in great, clean condition. The stainless steel case is in great shape for its age, as is the rare original Advan bracelet, which shows wear consistent with its age. The watch has been tested and is both fully functioning correctly and keeping accurate time within expected vintage tolerances, with the day and date functions operating as they should.

A fantastic opportunity to own a quintessential piece of 70s JDM watch design. With its rare red dial, well-preserved faceted crystal, and original bracelet, this Seiko Advan is a true standout for any collector or enthusiast of unique vintage timepieces.
