I bought this watch from eBay due to the dial and the 700X movement performance. There is a Seiko devout following and I wanted to see for myself. After a great service at The Bishop Watchmaker the watch runs great. Time Grapher gives it a -4s/d, 211 degrees of amplitude and a horrific 8.9ms beat error. For now I wear it and enjoy a vintage watch. It keeps good enough time for me. I continue to buy 700X movements, maybe someday I will be able service one on my own and get better results.
The watch SN is 4280XX making in a February 1974 date of manufacture. The comments in the following in this post I found an owner got the very same watch as a Graduation gift. Any comments or feedback about this watch I would love to read them.
