Seiko Lord Marvel 5740-8000 Hi-Beat 36000 Silver Sunburst Dial

Seiko caliber 5740C is the first 36,000 A/h hi beat movement in Japan, and second in the world. It was introduced in 1967 after Girard Perregaux first developed and introduced it in 1966.

But instead of putting it in their Grand or King Seiko line, Seiko put its new hi-beat caliber inside Lord Marvel 5740-8000, the third generation of the Lord Marvel lineup (LM5740).

This Lord Marvel, crafted in 1975, showcases a timeless design with its simple yet classic silver dial adorned with stick indices and two-tone dauphine hands. Despite showing a few signs of wear with some hairline scratches on the case and crystal, the watch remains in good condition, maintaining its unpolished sharp edges.

Powered by a hi-beat movement, the watch runs smoothly with a loud and seamless sweep of the second hand. It boasts normal accuracy and a power reserve of up to 30 hours when fully wound, ensuring reliable performance.

Overall, this Lord Marvel offers pure enjoyment with its exceptional movement and enduring design, making it a cherished timepiece for vintage watch enthusiasts.

The Seiko Lord Marvel 5740 movement paved the way for the hi-beat Grand Seiko movement, proved Seiko’s innovative spirit, and is one of the world’s high-precision watchmakers. The Seiko Lord Marvel 36000 is a piece of horological history, one of the must-haves for vintage watch collectors.
