Its hip to be square!  Here we have 70s Seiko at its best with their rectangular shaped watches. This one is a more conservative colour with its grey dial which is a bit easier on the eye than the disco colourways they usually produced.

This is the Actus SS version which houses a 6106 movement which is automatic and hacking. The SS range used a higher jewel count of 18-21 which would be more usual in a 6106.   More jewels less friction and wear to the parts. 
I have completely stripped the movement down to its components, inspected and cleaned before assembling with fresh oils.   The watch is running well and ready to serve its next owner. 
Crystal is acrylic and I have buffed out any scratches or marks. The joy of plastic glass is you can always refurbish it with a bit of Polywatch or alike. 
A new crown gasket has been fitted and the movement goes in from the front on these so it is well protected however I do not guarantee any substantial water resistance so please refrain from bathing or swimming with a watch like this. 

To complete the look I have fitted a new 19mm perforated leather strap.
