"Sometimes rarity is only in the eyes of the beholder, but these Bell-Matics are some of the hardest to find. The 4005 movement with date-only is rarely if ever seen at auction or on watch sales forums."
My opinion :
Especially for proper condition like my Bellmatic 4005, not easy to find.
All parts genuine with best condition of black genuine dial.. cal.4005 ca.60s only produced with 27 jewels variant and in short time. 1968-1969 2 years only and then be continued by the successor cal.4006 movement with day/date and 3 variants 17j/21j/27j, cal.4005 not many population off course.
Year end 2010 verge door.. so i decided this rarest Seiko Bellmatic cal.4005-7000 as my closing year 2010 acquisition for my wristwatch collection. I'm very happy, i hope you too.
please enjoy the pics.... see you next hopeful year "2011"
