This beautiful watch is a direct descendant of the first quartz chronograph, the Seiko 7A28. It has a very high quality quartz movement that, unlike most modern quartz watches, can be easily regulated by any watch maker. This is an unusual version, having been sold only in Japan (model SJH010), from about 1983 onwards.The body and bracelet are in stainless steel, with gold plating (PVD?) limited to the bezel, the crown and 3 pushers, and some dial decoration. Unlike many other models, the bracelet has no gold trim between the main links.The crystal is Seiko's hardened glass and, like the rest of the watch, is original and completely unmarked. All the functions work perfectly.Note that the apparently black back in the photo is actually silver reflecting my camera lens.The features: Central Hour and Minute hands Sub-dial at 6 o'clock with Second hand Central Chronograph Second hand Sub-dial at 9 o'clock with Chronograph 30-minute counter Sub-dial at 3 o'clock with Chronograph 1/20th-second counter (one revolution per second) Sub-dial at 12 o'clock with Date indicator and Moon Phase display Crown at 8 o'clock for setting Time, Date and Moon PhaseIn the Time setting position the Second hand is stoppedThe Date and Moon can be set without affecting the Time setting The three buttons at 2, 4, and 10 o'clock operate the Chronograph functionsSimple, read more
