Seiko SKX007K 7S26-0020 – Exceptional Original Patina, Serviced, Iconic SKX Diver

Offered here is a standout original Seiko SKX007K (7S26-0020) with one of the most beautiful natural patinas you’ll encounter on an SKX. The bezel and its original lume pip at 12 o’clock have aged into a warm, yellowish-gold tone—an absolutely striking contrast that collectors immediately recognize. The bezel insert itself shows honest timeworn character while remaining clean and authentically original.

Most importantly, the dial retains its vivid red/orange “Diver’s 200m” text—a detail that fades on the majority of surviving SKX pieces. The original hands, case, and watch head remain in excellent, unpolished condition.

Key Highlights

• Beautiful natural patina on bezel & lume pip

• Rare bold red/orange “Diver’s 200m” text — not faded

• Original bezel insert, dial, handset, and case

About the Model
The SKX007 is the most widely beloved reference in Seiko’s now-discontinued SKX diver line. Production ended in 2019, and clean, original, serviced examples like this one have become increasingly scarce—especially with such attractive patina and strong dial text.

Condition
This piece stands out for its originality and preservation. Many SKX dials show heavy wear, fading, or water damage—but not this one. Everything remains crisp, clean, and true to the watch’s heritage. The movement runs reliably after a fresh overhaul, and the watch is ready for daily wear or collection display.
