Limited Edition Seiko Honda F1 Watch
I have 2 brand new authentic Seiko Honda Racing F1 limited edition team watches for sale. Serial numbers intact and complete with all paperwork and factory 3-year warranty along with special Honda Racing F1 case. I have already registered these watches and their serial numbers with Seiko USA so any future work/repairs that need to be done with the USA factory, they only need to look up your serial number on the caseback. These were purchased from an authorized Seiko retailer here in Southern California.
Photos below show 3, but I am keeping one for myself. I had intended to keep all of them as collectibles, but am purchasing another watch so I need to clear out some space for the new arrival. This is the latest watch and one of 3 other models (but the sportiest, IMO) that Seiko has produced for the Honda Racing F1 team in 2006:
Nick Fry, CEO of Honda Racing F1 wears his:
Christian Klien, test driver for Honda Racing F1 wears his in his Honda Legend:
http://seikousa.com/Product.aspx?productId=620
Features:
-Hour, minute and small second hands
-Alarm can be set on a 12-hour basis with two small hands
-Chronograph can measure up to 60 minutes in 1/5 seconds
-Alarm hands can indicate the time in a different time zone
-Screwdown crown and caseback
-Anti-glare sapphire crystal
-Titanium Carbon Nitride plated bezel
-LumiBrite Hands & Markers
-Water Resistancy - 100M
Actual photos of watches for sale (except one is mine! ):
They list for $575. Asking $500 OBO. And I know Ebay may have them for cheaper, but keep in mind many of the people selling them may either have missing serial numbers and also do not come with the official warranty or Honda F1 presentation box. These are authentic warrantied Seiko Honda F1 chronographs. Located in Irvine and no Paypal. Cash please.

Thanks for the bumps guys
Here's a pic of the Sportura Kinetic limited edition (1000 pieces worldwide) with the Honda F1 gear and lists for $5700:
Real carbon fiber face along with carbon fiber inserts in the links.
I know many people associate Seiko with cheap timepieces, but internationally, they actually have quite a history within horology since 1881 and have had an enviable heritage in producing timepieces with cutting edge technology that rivals any of the Swiss brands and at a much more competitive pricepoint. All of the movements in their timepieces are made in-house (even the oil!) whereas there are pricier Swiss brands that outsource their movements but charge quite a bit more just because of the "Swiss" association. Seiko actually won "Watch of the Year" at Baselworld 2006 for their new Spring Drive collection. One of the more interesting and underrated watch companies in the world, in my opinion. They're kind of like Honda; something for everyone, whether it's a $125,000 made to order Sonnerie, a $4000 Spring Drive, a $600 Honda F1 chronograph, or a $70 automatic, Seiko's got the market covered!
