Strong, angular case design paired with a crisp silver dial—this is vintage Seiko at its most confident.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"323\" data-end=\"648\"\u003eThe dial is beautifully executed with applied indices and a clean date window, keeping the layout balanced and highly legible. The handset is classic Seiko: sharp, functional, and catching the light just right. The overall look is refined, but with enough presence on the wrist thanks to the faceted case design of the 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"650\" data-end=\"823\"\u003eFitted on its original steel bracelet, this example feels cohesive and period-correct.

Running at 28,800 bph, it delivers excellent accuracy and a smooth sweep of the seconds hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1149\" data-end=\"1462\"\u003eThis caliber features a quickset date mechanism, making it very practical for daily use. However, as with all vintage Seiko quickset systems, care is required: the quickset should never be used between approximately 20:00 and 05:00, as the date change mechanism is engaged during these hours and damage can occur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1464\" data-end=\"1582\"\u003eThe 56KS series represents the final evolution of King Seiko, combining precision with a more modern, wearable design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1584\" data-end=\"1587\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1589\" data-end=\"1603\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1589\" data-end=\"1603\"\u003eTech sheet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1605\" data-end=\"1966\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1dk0vh5\" data-start=\"1605\" data-end=\"1629\"\u003eReference: 5625-8001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"xfao33\" data-start=\"1630\" data-end=\"1664\"\u003eSerial: 4N069X (November 1974)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"19c3zjo\" data-start=\"1665\" data-end=\"1683\"\u003eSize: ±36–37mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"nev9f0\" data-start=\"1684\" data-end=\"1733\"\u003eMovement: Seiko cal. 5625 automatic (hi-beat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1sdxaal\" data-start=\"1734\" data-end=\"1771\"\u003eDial: Silver with applied indices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1jxktfk\" data-start=\"1772\" data-end=\"1792\"\u003eCrystal: Mineral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"oo205d\" data-start=\"1793\" data-end=\"1838\"\u003eLug width: Integrated \/ original bracelet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"3pvtmy\" data-start=\"1839\" data-end=\"1892\"\u003eCondition: Good vintage condition with light wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"4hi2aq\" data-start=\"1893\" data-end=\"1922\"\u003eWarranty: 2-year warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"l46iyj\" data-start=\"1923\" data-end=\"1966\"\u003eBracelet: Original Seiko steel bracelet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Perpetual Watch Lover (PWL)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54212578967881,"sku":"1783","price":750.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0238\/6352\/5456\/files\/DSF0069_e34590a1-1679-4b3e-980d-c0fa71a8f13c.jpg?v=1776415879","url":"https:\/\/perpetualwatchlover.com\/products\/king-seiko-5625-8001-from-1974","provider":"Perpetual Watch Lover (PWL)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
