Seiko Meca-Quartz Stopwatch - 1976 Vintage - 8A20-0010 - Box & Bag - Great Condition
This fascinating vintage Seiko stopwatch, reference 8A20-0010, dates from December 1976 and represents an early example of Seiko's advanced quartz timing technology. While its timekeeping base is quartz-accurate, these calibres often feature mechanical components for the stopwatch hand movement for a smoother sweep. This model features a high-contrast white dial with clear markings for 1/5th second increments and a 30-minute register sub-dial. The functional black plastic case houses the movement and features dedicated pushers for Start/Stop and Reset functions. It comes complete with its original Seiko-branded lanyard, storage bag, and original box.
The stopwatch is presented in great vintage condition overall. The dial is in great, clean condition. The original acrylic crystal is also in good condition. The durable black case is in good condition, showing some visible signs of wear and handling consistent with its age and use as a functional timer. The original lanyard is present and intact. The watch has been tested and is both fully functioning correctly, with all stopwatch functions (start, stop, reset) operating crisply and accurately as expected from its calibre. Please review the photos for details.
A rare and highly functional piece of Seiko's timing history from 1976. This early quartz stopwatch is offered in great working condition, complete with its original lanyard, storage bag, and box, making it a fantastic find for collectors or vintage tech enthusiasts.
