Model: Seiko “Porcelain Laurel” LJAL601 

Year: March 1995

Features:

The Theme. One of the more European looking Seikos that harkens back to Seiko's pre-war European watch heritage. Elegant spade-style, heat-blued hands, with a crisp porcelain dial, breguet-style numerals, all wrapped up in a solid 925 silver case. Despite its vintage appearance, the LJAL601 is actually part of Seiko's neo-vintage Laurel collection.

The Materials. Despite its historical connections, the LJAL601 stands strong on its own merits. The case is 925 Silver, and the dial is porcelain - it’s a deep-value piece that is granted an affordable price point due to its relative obscurity

The Movement. The looks of a sixty year old watch, but powered by one of Seiko’s most famously reliable modern, hi-beat, movements - the 4S Calibre. The perfect package!

Specifications:

Condition: In great condition overall. Recently serviced. Small marks are visible on the case on close inspection, but nothing you’d notice on the wrist. The silver case, especially on the caseback, shows signs of aging.

Scope: No box or papers.

Movement: 4S24 Manual Wind 28800bhp, 21 Jewels

Dimensions:

  • Case Width: 37.0mm

FAQs

Are your watches authentic?

Everything we sell is 100% authentic.

All of our watches are inspected and verified for authenticity - both inside and out. We have over 15 years of sourcing and collecting rare watches in Japan, which is often considered to be one of the best markets for authentic and fully original vintage watches.

Do you ship globally?

We are based in Japan and regularly ship all over the world. We typically use FedEx and it takes:

  • 3-7 business days to reach North America
  • 3-7 business days to reach Europe
  • 3-7 business days to reach Asia and Oceania.

All of our packages are securely shipped, fully insured, and trackable door-to-door.

What condition are your watches?

Due to the vintage and neo-vintage nature of the watches we typically sell, the condition varies from watch to watch. However, our photos are high resolution and our descriptions are accurate. You can buy with confidence knowing there won't be any nasty surprises.

If the condition of a watch is ever misrepresented, we would offer a full refund.

Are all of your watches serviced?

Most but not all of our watches are serviced. The "Condition" section of each watch will confirm if the watch has been serviced.

All of our watches are tested by an independent watchmaker - if a service is needed, the watch will be serviced. If a service hasn't been conducted, it's because the watch itself is too new to need a service, or there is evidence of a recent service.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept payment by all major Credit Cards and Wise.com

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 or new), and the import 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?

Our serviced watches are typically tested to their original water resistant specifications, but we would never recommend pushing vintage or neo-vintage watches to their depth limits.

What is your returns policy?

Due to the vintage and neo-vintage nature of most of our watches, we do not offer returns under normal circumstances. All sales should be considered final.
