Discover the legendary Seiko Lord Matic. Seiko introduced the Lord Matic line with the intention of continuing the Lord Marvel legacy, setting the bar high for this new series of watches. Thanks to Seiko's design expertise, they achieved their goal and more!
The Lord Matic line is equipped with a sophisticated 56 series movement, and sports a high-quality case design and finishing that takes it to new heights of elegance. Although originally positioned just below the King Seiko line, the Lord Matic quickly gained market demand, becoming a sensation in its own right. Its movement, the 5606, emerged as one of the most prevalent Seiko mechanical movements of its time.
A BIT OF TRIVIA
Both Suwa Seikosha factory (the makers of Grand Seiko) and Daini Seikosha factory (the makers of King Seiko) produced Lord Matic watches. The Suwa Seikosha factory created those with the 5600-series movements while Daini Seikosha factory made the 5100-series and the 5200-series.
Seiko's Lordmatic advertisements back then exemplified how Seiko positioned the Lord Matic watches as for “men on the way to the top.”. Today men and women wearing one have already reached the 'if you know you know phase'.
To those who wish to start their journey in vintage watches, the Lord Matic line is underrated and a lot more reasonably priced. If you want the functionality and the pedigree but without paying for the premium of the King Seiko and Grand Seiko, I highly recommend seeking out a Lord Matic
OUR THOUGHTS
The Lordmatic Line was extensive and were available in a wide variety of dial and case configurations, we are lucky enough to have a few in the store. The specific model we're featuring here is the Lord Matic 5601-9000 no day/date. It boasts a vertically brushed dial. A multi-dimensional brush and mirror-finished case. This watch has been carefully preserved, with the original finish maintained and all its history on show. The design adheres to the Seiko Grammar of Design and bears similarities to the 56 King Seiko produced during the same period. In summary this Lord Matic watch wearing its history proudly and is sure to impress any vintage watch collector.
