Seiko King Seiko 5626-7180 Vanac Dark Blue Dial

The King Seiko Vanac, produced between 1972 and 1974, is a striking and unconventional series that stands out with its vibrant dials, faceted crystals, and bold angular cases. Despite its 1970s origins, its futuristic design remains remarkably modern and eye-catching.

Presented here is the 1973 King Seiko Vanac 5626-7180, featuring a radiant dark blue dial that plays beautifully with light, enhanced by the 9 side faceted crystal that contributes to its dynamic and striking appearance. The sharp, angular case adds to the watch’s bold aesthetic, making it feel far ahead of its time.

At its core is the high-grade Seiko 5626 movement, developed by the Suwa division, operating at 28,800 beats per hour (bph). Recently serviced, the movement runs good, with a fully functional quickset day-date mechanism. The case and crystal have been polished while preserving their sharp edges, and the dial shown no signs of wear while the bezel turns silver due to polishing. This Vanac is paired with the original Seiko XJB130 bracelet, which perfectly complements the watch’s thicker lugs for a seamless fit, fits wirst size of +/- 17,5cm.

As one of Seiko’s most daring vintage designs, the Vanac series remains highly sought after by collectors, a popularity further reinforced by Seiko’s recent reissue of the model. This piece is a fantastic addition for anyone looking to own a bold and unique part of Seiko’s history.
