Icon2 SOLD: Vintage KING SEIKO 45-8010 Chronometer (1970)

Vintage KING SEIKO 45-8010 Chronometer (1970)

Condition

This 1970 King Seiko 45-8010 Chronometer is in excellent condition throughout, with its distinctive “Dress Turtle” case lines with polished upside and brushed underside still looking very sharp. The gold caseback medallion is also in super condition. Hands and dial are particularly outstanding, with acrylic crystal and original KS crown also in great shape.



The Hi-Beat 4500A movement is bright and clean, and keeping great time (+2 second per day when I tested it over 48 hours). Power reserve is a healthy 42 hours on a full wind. You can find out more about the 45KS movement here.
