This is an all original 4520-8000 Grand Seiko. Overall, this 45GS is in excellent vintage condition. The case has most likely never been polished and has only naturally worn out its edges. The edges are very sharp and the beautiful Tanaka grammar of design profile is prevalent in its original glory. The original silver/white dial is in clean condition with just minor discoloration near the center of the dial. The crystal was replaced with a NOS (new old stock) Seiko crystal. The handset and crown are all original and has aged but is in good condition. The case back is in great condition with the original gold GS medallion crisp. The movement has just been serviced by our watchmaker and is running well at the moment at +5.2 seconds / day. Ships from Japan
