Title: Rare 27j Seiko Automatic Alarm Description: VERYGOOD condition. Automatic alarm watches are rare and always expensive. It is a lot of "works" to jam into one movement. This model is a rare Japan only 27j version with a rotating inner bezel for the light pleasant alarm ring which is purely mechanical. In other words inside the case is a small hammer and long metal gong. No auxiliary wind as it is not needed with the highly efficient auto movement. Winding the crown as usual does add power to the alarm barrel though. To set the alarm pull the crown out to the second increment and turn counter clockwise. Push the crown back in and wind fully (for the alarm power) then pull out the button at two. When the alarm sounds you can push that button in to silence it. The day of the month does not quick set but the day of the week will change fast in the old style which is to turn the crown past midnight then back to nine and then repeat. Runs fine and has its original bracelet. Would carry a strap well also. Measures 35.5 mm wide (not including the crown) x 42 mm long x 12 mm thick. {$325} Item #4924 SOLD
