Wanted to share some information and research that I've gathered on the Seiko 4S movement (not Seiko 4R that are currently equipping the low end Seiko automatics). This movement is found in the Credor 4S76 that Mike shared recently on the forum as well. ***Please note that this was originally writte

King Seiko Reissue SCVN001. Got it from another collector. The only King Seiko that Seiko relaunched in recent times, as part of the Historical Collection Year 2000 .

The 4s76 movt is the better decorated variant of the 4s36 found in the SARN001. It's not the only time that Seiko did this. The same relationship is also found between the handwinding only 4s29 and 4s79 movements, etc. Curiously enough, the accuracy spec is the same for both 4s76 and 4s36. This is t

This review is truly a great way to start the year. Many thanks and welcome to this forum.

Earlier on in my watch collecting hobby, I gradually gotten to know about the existence of the 4S family of movements, mainly due to Don's excellent review of 1 particular 4s watch. His excellent review can still be seen here . The watch in question is the SARN001 with the rarely seen 4S36 movement

this one belongs to me, I wore it during my wedding... i like the funky dial...very different from the usual dress watches....

Hi all, I wanted to share 2 recent acquisitions from a highly under-rated collection by Seiko in 2000. Pity not much information nor discussion can be found regarding this collection. I have written briefly about this collection before and would like to know more. Does any members here have other ex
