The original crystal was replaced with a brand-new aftermarket crystal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe crown is located at the traditional 4H position and is easily accessible. The date quickset works as it should by uncorking the crown to the first level to adjust the date. The day is adjusted by pressing the crown in. Cool!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe movement was carefully stripped and meticulously cleaned via ultrasonic immersion, oiled and re-assembled on 28 June 2026, thus it had undergone a complete overhaul and not a basic service. It should be able to operate unhindered until the next servicing thereby providing the owner peace of mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEquipped with the 7019 movement, it has 21 Jewels that operate at 21,600 BPH. The time-grapher shows excellent readings of -1 second and amplitude of 160 with a relatively straight centered line! Such readings are exceptional even by brand new modern automatic watch standards whereby the accepted tolerance is -20 to +40 seconds a day! This is a testament to the quality, the meticulous care provided over the years, and of course the painstaking calibration conducted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case width and height are approximately 37.4mm (without crown) and 42.4mm respectively. The lug width is 18mm and the strap can accommodate wrists up to 20cm; hence, the watch size is suitable for men and the modern women.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe watch comes with a brand-new good quality genuine red leather strap with silver buckle as part of the deal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to its age, this timepiece has not been water-resistant tested.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo the best of our knowledge and expertise when overhauling the timepiece, the watch is 100% original Seiko components from this particular watch. No parts were replaced with aftermarket parts or modified thereby it is considered in near mint condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pictures provided shows the watch in excellent condition (no dents and major scratches), and the movement within squeaky clean and well maintained. It has also been demagnetised to improve parts reliability, minimise wear + tear, and improve accuracy. The only drawback is the lack of documentation and original box. An aftermarket box \/ case will be provided instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeldom can one find a vintage watch that offers this and more. Yes, there are many other same \/ similar models in the market, BUT none are as well-kept and maintained as what you see here, and with an attractive price to boot. So, it is a no-brainer that this one-of-a-kind watch will make an extremely beautiful birthday present for that special someone born in May 1976! Another no-brainer is the fact that the value of this watch will appreciate over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBear in mind that this watch has seen many of the previous owners’ ups and downs in life and should be cherished and well taken care of for the next generation to savour such engineering beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a truly stunning, highly sort after May 1976 Seiko 5 Actus in superb condition; so, be unique and own a May 1976 Birthday Watch that is almost impossible to source in such fine condition or purchase it for that special someone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Altimate Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43486564581465,"sku":null,"price":295.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0279\/7590\/9465\/files\/IMG20260630132446.jpg?v=1782853938","url":"https:\/\/shop.altimate.sg\/products\/birthday-watch-may-1976-seiko-actus-7019-7060-daini-hi-beat-21j-automatic-watch-oh","provider":"Altimate Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
