EXTREMELY RARE MODEL and CONDITION of LORUS by SEIKO DISNEY GOOFY 1990's watch!!!This auction is for ONE watch!!! The one pictured on the right side of the picture of three representing different models and band color offerings of the Lorus Goofy Disney Watch.This watch designated MF650 on the packaging label is very different from the other middle pictured watch with the same packaging label MF650. This watch has a silver tone case and a WHITE LUMIBRITE FACE/DIAL.The middle watch... which will be listed in another auction has a gold tone case and a silver colored face/dial and a black band.The third watch with a packaging label ZK128 (on the left in the picture) which will be listed in another auction, has a gold tone case with silver dial/face but, but with a brown pebbled band.Most of the watches I am offering for sale on Ebay today arefrom “New Old Stock” (NOS), that I purchased twenty years ago from a local jewelrystore that was going out of business, At that time I made the high bid for their entire inventory of watches.Over the years, I have sold off most of the duplicateexamples of each model of the watches. I have six left of one model and threeof two models, and two of two models, but of the seventy different models leftin inventory most are the last of their model, or were the only watch of aparticular model in the original inventory.I have held these watches off the market knowing that intime they would be among the rare few pristine examples available to discerningcollectors.
Having reached the age of eighty, it is time for the watches to find a permanent home.All but a few of the watches are by Seiko, or one of their subsidiariessuch as Lorus or Jaz.Seiko produced a watch for Disney that was far above thequality of previous Disney watches and for only the short period of 1986 into the1990’s before a dispute between Disney and Seiko ended their association, consequently, the Seiko watches to be found in mint condition today, are scarce to rare, and highly sought after by collectors.They are EXTREMELY RARE in Mint “New From The Factory” condition with original box and packaging.These watches have never been sold at retail, and have neverbeen worn.Most have remained in their “From The Factory” box untilremoved for photographs, and then returned to their box and into their smoke-free, pet-free, air-conditioned, storage environment.Before shipping, a fresh battery will be provided with eachwatch, if requested by the purchaser.If you are seeking the very finest condition watch available, you have found it.This may be the last opportunity to add a vintage watch, or watches, of this condition quality to your collection, and Seiko’s reputation speaks foritself in terms of design and quality of workmanship.As the old “Hallmark” greeting card commercial stated, “WhenYou Care Enough to Send (Have) The Very Best”!
