1950s Seiko 11A Indicator Automatic Steel 35.5mm 14060
Here we have an early, rarely seen 1950s Seiko 11A Indicator automatic Steel 14060. The first model was the Ref. 14015, which was launched in 1955. Their third version was this: Ref. 14060, which was produced from 1958 to 1959 at their original Kameido factory, later demolished in 2004. Featuring a 35.5mm round stainless steel case that sits comfortably on your wrist with angled tapered drilled lugs. Its curved flanks lead to a lug-to-lug length of 43.5mm and a case thickness of 12.5mm. On the right side, a recessed coin-edged crown. A smooth bezel holds a domed crystal above a white dial. Applied ‘12’’ with faceted arrow and baton indexes mark the hours. At noon, we have an arched power reserve indicator above elegant steel Dauphine hands complemented by a tapered second hand. The swirling script displays ‘Seiko Automatic Diashock 21 Jewels’. On the reverse, a solid case back is engraved with the details of the watch, inside an automatic Seikosha Cal. 11A, 21 jewels, beating at 21,600 beats per hour, it is basically a Swiss A. Schild calibre 1382. The first model was the ref 14015, which was launched in 1955. This movement used a special mainspring called Nivaflex, which technically meant it wasn’t a completely in-house movement. Initially, it incorporated a Swiss-imported E-1 and R anti-shock system. Then came the second model, the reference 14043. This one featured Seiko’s own anti-shock technology known as S1, which made it more reliable. Finally, there was reference 14060, which featured an even better version of the anti-shock protection with the S2 system. It comes paired with a well-suited 18mm strap and pin buckle.
