SEIKO VINTAGE CATALOGS - 1960s - 1980s
« on: March 20, 2011, 05:42:17 PM »
Below is a massive project that has been the better part of the last year in the process.  Thanks to the generosity of some of our members (especially Gary Fredericks) we have been able to scan and collect a large collection of vintage seiko catalogs ranging from the late 1960s to H2 1985.  We hope to add to this database as more donations from members come in.  If you have any vintage catalogs you would like us to add, please let us know, we'd be happy to scan them for you.

These scans can be freely shared with any other site, provided the use is not commercial.  under no circumstances may anyone copy and rehost any of these files in any other website without the express permission of SCWF!  If you do link to these files, please be kind enough to link and reference the source of the material.

Unless otherwise noted, the catalogs are primarily Japanese market catalogs.  Just because something does not appear in a catalog, it does not mean that seiko did not produce it or make it available in other markets.

Without further a do, here is the new catalog database:

What an incredible resource... thanks for all the effort Isthmus!  Found my first watch in them catalogues and brought back memories of walking into that jewelry store every payday as a 16 year old and plunkin' down that week's payment for that beauty - an analog-digital alarm chronograph H449.  Thanks for bringing back the memories!

Likewise, 1980 I bought my first Diver, a sports 100. I didn't know about auto vs quartz at that time either. And remembered how my watch was smaller than the big daddy diver 7548 the jeweler called it. Back then I was scrapping to save to buy the 100. Was interesting to see the catalog all the same. Thanks :great:

I did send in a 1990-91 Seiko catalogue to Isthmus a little over a month ago. Hopefully it will get posted soon......
