In this example, the Chariot's already unconventional lines take on a completely different character with its round, layered case, almost reminiscent of a pocket watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIMPORTANT NOTE: Since this product will be shipped within the European Union, you will not pay customs duties within the EU.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thin black Roman numerals used on the white dial, the outer rail-type minute scale, and the extremely simple two-hand arrangement define the watch face. There are no superfluous elements on the dial. Apart from the small Seiko logo and the Suwa mark at the 6 o'clock position, the entire area is left to the design itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case, however, is the real surprise of this watch. The overlapping, softly lined bezels make the classic round form appear much stronger than it is. The contrast between the gold-toned black strap and the white dial also gives the watch a truly period-independent look. Today, when seen on the wrist, you don't need to know the model to understand that this is no ordinary vintage Seiko.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside is Seiko's 2220A hand-wound movement. This delicate 24-jewel movement was developed to complement the Chariot's elegant case structure and completes the watch's mechanical character. The watch has been fully serviced by us and is in perfect working order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this example particularly special is that it has been preserved with its original Seiko box. The navy blue exterior, gold-colored Seiko lettering, and red velvet interior complete the watch's strong 1970s aesthetic. Both the watch itself and its presentation capture the spirit of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinal Thoughts\u003cbr\u003eThe Chariot 2220-0520 isn't one of the first designs that comes to mind when you think of Seiko. And that's precisely its beauty.\u003cbr\u003eWith its Roman numerals, simple two-hand dial, unusual layered case, and delicate mechanical structure, it reveals a much more elegant and lesser-known side of Seiko. Moreover, this example, preserved with its original box, is not only a beautiful vintage watch; it's a unique Seiko that's hard to find another like it in a collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model you are viewing was manufactured in 1976.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePROFESSIONAL FULL MAINTENANCE. The mechanism has been completely disassembled, each part cleaned, lubricated and precisely adjusted; so your watch will work without any unpleasant surprises. (It requires no maintenance for 3 years unless exposed to adverse conditions.)\u003cbr\u003eProduct Condition: Tested, all functions working.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turgay's Watches","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48435652460765,"sku":"TW01060","price":575.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/3125\/0653\/files\/seiko-chariot-2220-0520-front.jpg?v=1787698161","url":"https:\/\/turgayswatches.com\/products\/seiko-chariot-2220-0520","provider":"Turgay's Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
