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

A LITTLE PEOM

The Lord Matic line was wide and diverse,
With countless dials and cases to immerse.
From bold to refined, each with its own flair,
And we’re fortunate enough to have a few rare.

Here we present the 5606-7151, a standout in design,
Its graduated brown dial glows with depth and shine.
The case — brushed and polished with masterful skill,
A mirror-like finish that dazzles still.

Preserved with care, it carries its story with pride,
Each detail a chapter from horology’s side.
Built under Seiko’s famed Grammar of Design,
It shares its lineage with King Seiko’s line.

For the vintage enthusiast, it’s a treasure to behold,
A timeless creation with elegance bold.
This Lord Matic is more than a watch to pursue,
It’s a legacy piece — waiting to belong to you.
