The Lord Marvel (LM), which made its debut in 1958, marked Seiko's entry into the realm of high-end luxury timepieces. These watches were produced at the Suwa factory in Nagano, Japan.

Between 1958 and 1964, various versions of the Seiko Lord Marvel were in production. The one featured here belongs to the later production series identified by the code 15023E.

As a pioneering high-end luxury watch of its era, the Seiko Lord Marvel 1st Gen featured meticulously applied indices. Skilled craftsmen and women at the Suwa factory used the traditional 植字 (shokuji) technique to manually plant these indices, rather than using glue or raised markers. Notably, the dial has an octagonal sun-shaped logo above the six o'clock index, referred to as the SD logo. This logo indicated that the indices on the dial were crafted from either 18k or 14k solid yellow gold.

The Seiko Lord Marvel 15023E stands as a witness to many significant moments in horological history. With its SD indices, 14K gold-filled construction, and a case featuring thick gold plating with a thin bezel, it boasts a timeless design that has retained its aura of luxury.

Despite its age of 60 years, the watch exhibits some signs of wear, such as minor imperfections on the silver hairline dial and peeling on the side of the back case (refer to images). However, it has been verified to be in good working order and maintains accuracy. It has undergone testing, including full winding and continuous ticking for more than 48 hours.

While it may not be flawless, this historic timepiece holds considerable value as a collector's item.
