Only JohnN has been posting his Belles, so I thought a thread devoted to these fine vintage Seikos is due....
I have two gold plated ones, keepers in the collection, and really wonderful watches.....just finished polishing the cases and WOW! getting acquainted with them again is a joy! SO, post your Belles! Thanks go to LewB who gifted me the brown dial, and to TigerUK who fixed the day wheel on the white dial model!

I purchased this Bell-Matic new back in 1973. It was my first Seiko and I love it!
