History The Seikomatic line was introduced in the early 1960s as Seiko's upper-tier automatic range, positioned just below Grand Seiko. This specific model utilizes the caliber 6206, a true automatic movement that does not feature hand-winding capability. To emphasize that the automatic movement requires no daily winding, Seiko designed the watch with a recessed crown positioned at 4 o'clock, allowing it to sit flush with the case profile.
