Sourced under reference **44999**, this landmark timepiece was engineered by **Daini Seikosha** as an uncompromising rival to Suwa's Grand Seiko, capturing the supreme corporate pride and horological ambition of the mid-Showa era.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAt the heart of this exquisitely designed 25-jewel hand-wound caliber: \u003c\/b\u003ePowering this historic timepiece is a hand-wound movement operating at a classic frequency of **18,000 vibrations per hour (vph)**. Praised by collectors for introducing the **hacking mechanism** (second hand stop function) to the King Seiko series, this movement employs a luxurious **25 jewel specification** to control friction in the gear train, and incorporates an improved balance structure and Seiko's **Diashock** system to achieve remarkable everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eArchitectural \"\"44999\"\" Muscular Lug and Screw-Back Case Geometry:\u003c\/b\u003e The reference **44999** is globally distinguished among vintage purists for introducing a heavy **screw-down case back** and coarse-threaded crown for enhanced water and dust resistance, departing from the snap-back design of the First Model. The solid case features bold, muscular multifaceted lugs finished with sharp polished bevels, giving the non-date dress watch an authoritative, broad-shouldered wrist presence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eImmaculate Non-Date Dial Balance and Sunburst Radiance:\u003c\/b\u003e The dial of the **44999** is a masterclass in clinical mid-century visual balance, showcasing a brilliant silver sunburst canvas free from calendar clutter. It features **hand-applied, multifaceted rectangular block indices**—with a prominent textured double-index at 12 o'clock—and razor-sharp dauphine hands that catch light with high contrast, proudly completed by the applied **\"\"SEIKO\"\"** logo and printed **\"\"KING SEIKO\"\"** branding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThe Sovereign Gold Shield Medallion of Kameido's Heritage:\u003c\/b\u003e The ultimate hallmark of this 1964 treasure sits proudly on the screw-down case back: a **pristine, solid gold-embossed King Seiko shield medallion**. Featuring the legendary cross-hilted sword and crown crest, this emblem historically certified its elite manufacturing standard and factory-regulated precision. Built to an uncompromising heirloom quality, the Second Model 44999 stands as an eternal, investment-grade cornerstone reference for collectors worldwide.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl style=\"margin:0 0 34px 40px\"\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-size: 24px;font-weight: bolder;\"\u003eFor more information, please look at the pictures.\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 14px 0 40px 0;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nonkun.boy.jp\/img_ebay\/m1236721972.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt style=\"font-size: 24px;font-weight: bolder;\"\u003eNotes\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin-bottom: 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBefore buying.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left : 30px;\"\u003eThe vintage watches we sell are inspected and adjusted so they work fine.
