Please scroll down for lots more photos. A 1950/60s Seiko Sportsmatic Mercury gents wrist watch.The watch has an automatic movement, stamped Sportsmatic, 17 Jewels, 820, Seikosha. � It is ticking away nicely and the time keeping is good while the watch is being worn during the day. � However, when the watch is not so active, ie, at night or when it is taken off, it starts to lose power so a service would be a good idea. � The watch measures 36.5mm diameter excluding the lugs. � The case is gold plated and there is some wear on the lugs and around the bezel. � The base metal is a very similar colour to the plate so the wear does not show too much to the naked eye. � If you turn the watch over, there is wear to the plate from where the watch has been worn. � The stainless steel snap-on case back has the Seiko name, together with the model number 7625-1990 and the serial number 5601146.The lens is in good condition.The dial is signed Mercury, Automatic, 17 Jewels, Shock Protected, **25-1991R (the first two numbers are illegible). � I think the Mercury name is some form of advertising or perhaps a presentation as Seiko made the same model for Sony, with the Sony name on the dial. � There is some wear and marking to the finish on the dial, around the perimeter. � Original dauphine shaped hands, centre seconds and a date display.The watch
