Unlike the typical Seiko Chariot, which is equipped with the 2220 movement, this particular Seiko Chariot utilizes the 2559 movement. It shares the same manual-winding caliber configuration, boasting a high-frequency beat rate of 28,800 per hour and a high jewel count of 24. Notably, it features only an hour and minute hand.
The compact design of this movement results in a thin case profile, which highlights the unique and favored watch design of its era.
As a vintage timepiece, the Seiko Chariot 2559-0180 exudes a minimalist appearance. It has a round stainless steel case, slender indices and hands. However, the inclusion of the silver linen dial elevates its overall aesthetic, making the watch even more appealing and beautiful.
Produced around 1976, this watch has been meticulously cared for despite its age. It boasts a clean case and dial, maintains regular accuracy, and offers a reliable power reserve. As such, it's a sought-after collectible for those collectors who appreciate the charm of simplicity and intriguing dial designs.
