For sale is a beautiful blue Urushi Seiko Presage. This limited edition unit is #126 of the 500 produced. For the uninitiated, the urushi lacquer is hand applied by lacquer artisan and master Issue Tamura, and it has amazing depth. As can be seen in the photos, it's extremely reflective and beautiful. The colour changes depending on the light your in. It appears bright, navy blue in sunlight but almost dark blue-black in other conditions. The blue leather strap is also of high quality; very supple and soft. The hands are a beautiful off-white color. The blue dial is hand-applied urushi, which is a coveted tree lacquer used in luxury finishes in Japan. The numerals and complication markings are also hand-applied in a finish called maki-e. This involves painting on a silver-leaf type of material over the urushi. The numerals are amazingly uniform for something done by hand. They are also slightly raised, which is a nice touch.
Mint, overall very clean. No scratches. Comes with wooden presentation box, manuals, original tags and guarantee card. Barely worn.
I can't find a solid reference price, but see them range between $1800-$2500 USD on eBay, Amazon.jp, Rakuten.
Asking $2,215 CAD shipped to North America (standard insurance incl., full value insurance at cost to buyer) OBO. Feel free to make offers.
Note: first time posting here, but I have a lot more feedback on reddit.com/r/pen_swap where I am active in the fountain pen hobby.
