 The History
In 1959 Seiko introduced the Crown, a watch in the base of the Marvel but with greater precision. The Crown was found to be superior to the Marvel in the watch competition.
In 1960 Seiko applied all of its parts precision techniques, assembly techniques, and adjustment techniques to the creation of a watch in the base of the Crown, but with even greater precision. The First-Generation Grand Seiko was born.
The Grand Seiko set a new standard stricter than the world’s highest accuracy standard (international chronometer testing standard (B.O.): excellent) of the time. The Grand Seiko became the world’s finest watch both in reality and in name.

Crown Special has the same movement found in 1st Grand Seiko ,less decorated and slightly detuned ,to offer more affordable alternative to The Grand.

This model features a stand out SD (special dial because indices are made of gold). There is some patina on the dial.

Case is in pretty good condition for a 60 year old gold filled watch, just lightly buffed with a cloth after cleaning. 

Movement has been disassembled, cleaned, lubricated and regulated.

It's in great condition and runs with very good accuracy for a vintage mechanical.
