FS: Seiko SpeedTimer Automatic Flyback Chrono 7017-8000

I am offering for sale is this rare vintage Seiko automatic flyback chronograph from 09/1971, representing the only Seiko Pulsimeter from the era, built exclusively for the Japanese domestic market (JDM).

Details:
► Cushion-shaped case with a beautiful interplay of flowing shapes and clear edges, circular brushing on the front, polished flanks, engraved dedication on the caseback
► Black dial with bold orange accents for a sporty touch, luminous material fully intact
► Seiko automatic movement 7017 with flyback function, starts and runs immediately and keeps time (with the second hand running) with a deviation of approx. +20s/d, date function and quick set work flawlessly
► Sticky pusher in a very mild form: occasionally(!), the pushers have to be pushed again after actuation so that they return to their original position (already considered in the price; does not affect the stop function and can usually be easily fixed by thorough cleaning)
► Brand new replacement mineral crystal included, the mounted original crystal shows fine scratches
► Modern beige/sand-colored FKM tropic strap, new and perfectly matching the color of the luminous material
► OPTIONAL (for an extra of EUR 50,-): original steel bracelet with original end links, long enough for a wrist circumference of approx. 18.5 cm

Dimensions:
► Diameter: approx. 39mm without pushers
► Lug-to-lug: approx. 42mm
► Height: approx. 13mm
► Lug width: 18mm

Price:
For this vintage Seiko Pulsimeter (incl. replacement crystal and without steel bracelet) I am asking EUR 360,- plus international insured shipping according to destination.

And now for the pictures:









The watch is located in Austria (EU) and so am I. I do have plenty of international references from various watch enthusiasts (also known here), so please feel free to ask for them.

Just for the records: I am a private collector and, therefore, the watch comes without any personal guarantee given by me. Nevertheless, I am offering to give a full refund less fully insured shipping expenses in case the piece sold would not be as described by me (within an inspection period of three days and to buyers from within the EU only due to the complex customs procedure in case of an overseas deal).

Thanks for reading and thanks to the Chronotrader platform and its host!

Kind regards,
F.Antl
