Beautiful Vintage Seiko Lord Matic 5606-7000 1970 Watch LM Automatic Roadmatic

This Seiko Lord Matic from the 1970s is top condition and has nice details: Brushed front and polished sides in gold-colored (stainless steel gold plated) case, beautiful white sunburst dial with applied indices and LM logo. Kanji/English day indication. 

I have this model for sale often (normally a tad cheaper) because I believe it offers great value for money in an automatic vintage, but the condition both cosmetically and mechanically is better than most examples I find!

On the caseback you will find " 日本国有鉄道総裁賞 功績賞表彰記念 "Japan National Railways President's Achievement Award Commendation". The Japan Railway company ordered a batch of Seiko LM watches to give as a reward/achievement present to their employees. This is also why there is no serial number stamped on the back.

Watch comes on a brown 19mm alligator print calf leather strap from Condor worth 40,00 EUR

Watch runs well and has a deviation of approximately 20 seconds/day with an amplitude of 200 and currently would not need a service. Time sets smooth and also the quickset day- and date work well, something often broken on this caliber due to a plastic day wheel!

This contains model 56LMW from the 1974 catalog, costing 21,500 Yen back then!
