Vintage 1978 Seiko 6306-7001 Serviced Rare JDM Divers Watch All Original
This is a superb example of the iconic Seiko 6306-7001 diver, produced in May 1978 for the Japanese domestic market (JDM). A true vintage tool watch, it features the desirable Kanji/English day wheel, a hacking movement, and a quickset day and date function, all operating corectly.
The watch has just undergone a full professional service by us, including all new seals. It’s running very well, keeping time within approximately +10 seconds per day. The screw-down crown operates smoothly, and the bezel has a satisfying, positive click.
Condition:
This piece is in excellent overall condition, with original factory dial, hands and all original Lume. The case also maintains its original factory finish and has not been polished. While there are expected signs of wear consistent with age, there is no evidence of misuse or damage.
It is currently fitted with a brand new Seiko flat vent dive strap for comfort and vintage authenticity. Please note that while all new seals were installed during the service, the watch has not been pressure tested and is not guaranteed to be waterproof.

Please Note:
Vintage mechanical watches are not as precise as modern quartz timepieces and may require periodic servicing to maintain performance. Signs of age and patina are part of the character and charm of these classic pieces.
As with any mechanical watch, please handle with care. Dropping or mishandling can cause damage to the movement or components.
