Sold Seiko SPB 157J1 Alpinist

For your consideration is yet another watch surplus to my needs. Although I'm not an advocate of nicknames, this one is often referred to as the "Baby Alpinist". I suppose it's called that because it does not have an internal compass bezel nor a second crown to operate it. Also, there is no cyclops ;) It really is quite an attractive watch with its textured fumee dial. With too many watches in the collection, this watch has seen limited wear although there are some minor scuffs on the side of the case and bezel but the crystal is scratch free.

The watch comes with its OEM leather strap fitted with a deployant clasp and the strap is excellent condition given my propensity to swap straps. Included with this offer is the option to purchase 1 of 2 aftermarket bracelets from Strapcode that also fit the Seiko SARB017 and also the Halios Seaforth Mk IV.

I am asking $650 for the watch with strap and $700 with your choice of bracelet. Paypal or electronic wire (bank) transfer is preferred and I am not interested in trades. Thanks very much for looking. References and additional photos are available upon request.

For quick reference, here are the specifications as lifted from the internet;
  • Movement: Automatic, Caliber 6R35, 21,600 vibrations per hour, 70-hour power reserve, 24 jewels, with manual winding and stop seconds hand function.​
  • Case: Stainless steel, 38mm diameter, 12.9mm thickness, 46mm length, screw-down crown, see-through screw case back.​
  • Crystal: Curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface.​
  • Dial: Blue, with LumiBrite on hands and indexes.​
  • Water Resistance: 200 meters (20 bar).​
  • Band: Blue calfskin leather strap with a three-fold clasp and push button release.​
  • Lug width of 20mm and a lug to lug measurement of 46mm
