Model: Credor GCAR966 HAQ

Year: March 2021

Features:

The Collection. The Credor GCAR966 is as accurate as it is beautiful. Released in 2020 as part of Credor’s Signo Collection - meaning symbol or stamp in Latin - the series is designed to epitomise Credor as a brand. It’s immediately clear that this model achieves exactly that.

The Design. A solid 18k rose gold bezel, paired with matching indices, surrounds a glossy black dial. Inside, the ultra-slim and ultra-accurate 8J81 movement powers the watch with an impressive accuracy of ±10 seconds per year. At just 6.9mm thick and 37mm wide, it not only perfectly captures the spirit of Credor but also flawlessly embodies the concept of a dress watch - lightweight, slim, and effortlessly classy.

The Look. For me, a dress watch should be enjoyed in its entirety - no one detail should overpower the watch as a whole. The intricately cut dagger indices play a key role in balancing the 3, 6, and 9 Roman numerals. Typically, baton, stick, or dagger markers are either longer or shorter than the accent numerals, but Credor’s approach of equalising the two creates a harmonious design where no single element steals the spotlight. 

The Value. With a retail price of around $4,500 in Japan, the price I’m offering the watch at today exemplifies how Credor remains significantly underappreciated and undervalued in Western markets. If you’re in the market for a dress watch, this is your chance to pick up a true value proposition.

Condition: Great condition overall. Almost no marks of any significance anywhere on the watch, other than the caseback.

Do I have to pay customs or taxes?

It depends on so many factors, including but not limited to; the cost of the watch, the type of watch you've bought (vintage, new, or modified), and the import and tax laws of your country. If you're unsure we recommend checking the import laws that relate to your country before ordering.

Are your watches water resistant?

All of our watch mods are tested by our own pressure depth testing equipment, and are guaranteed to resistant water up to 50m of depth. Seiko Originals have varied levels of depth resistance, which will be stated in the description of each watch.

Can I modify an existing design?

We welcome all ideas! Get in touch via the Contact Us page and we can let you know the possibility and cost of any potential alterations.

What is your returns policy?

Due to the hand-made nature of the Seiko Mods, we offer a 7 day returns period after the watch has been received. The returner must bear the cost of the returns, and the watch must be returned in the same condition as it arrived. We do not offer returns on any bespoke or custom-made watches.

Due to the vintage nature of the Seiko Originals, returns are considered on a case-by-case basis, as vintage items typically have a no returns policy.
