SEEDS FACTORY Co., Ltd. (Location: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Antonio Kamiya), a publisher specializing in watch-related magazines and MOOKs, has relaunched its official website "LowBEAT Marketplace" for the vintage watch specialty magazine 'LowBEAT'.

In conjunction with this, a new shop "JAPAN VINTAGE WATCH SHOP" has been established, specializing in vintage watches from Japanese brands, which are gaining global attention amidst the recent soaring prices of overseas brands. To commemorate the opening, 48 actual vintage SEIKO watches that were featured in the specialty book 'JAPAN VINTAGE SEIKO LowBEAT x BQ' will be specially sold with "Publication Certificates" issued by the editorial department. This book received an exceptional response, selling out its first print run in just 15 days after its release on June 10, 2026.

[What is LowBEAT Marketplace?]

This is the official website of "LowBEAT," the industry's only specialty magazine focused on information about vintage wristwatches manufactured before the 1970s, such as Rolex and Omega. In addition to explanations and how-to articles on historical antique watches, it offers a wealth of content that can be enjoyed by everyone from beginners to watch enthusiasts, including members-only articles where popular features from the magazine can be read for free. Furthermore, it features a marketplace-style service that aggregates new arrival information from renowned specialty shops nationwide, allowing users to search and view product arrival information from various shops in one place.

[What is JAPAN VINTAGE WATCH SHOP?]

Amidst the rising prices of vintage watches from overseas brands, vintage items from Japanese brands are still available at affordable prices. To share the appeal of these watches with as many people as possible, this special shop focusing on Japanese vintage watches has been realized through a partnership with Mr. Yoshihiko Honda, widely known as "BQ" and a renowned researcher of Japanese watches.

Leveraging the experience gained through years of editing LowBEAT, we aim to provide high-quality vintage watches from Japanese brands at reasonable prices, while also disseminating the charm of Japanese vintage watches to the world and increasing the number of Japanese watch fans.

48 items actually featured in the hit specialty book "JAPAN VINTAGE SEIKO LowBEAT x BQ" will be sold with publication certificates!

The specialty book "JAPAN VINTAGE SEIKO LowBEAT x BQ" is a catalog book that systematically compiles vintage watches from SEIKO released between the 1950s and 1990s, under the full supervision of Mr. Yoshihiko Honda. It was released exclusively on a dedicated website starting June 10, 2026, "Time Memorial Day," and received such an overwhelming response that the first print run sold out in just 15 days.

To commemorate the opening of the JAPAN VINTAGE WATCH SHOP, we are now selling the actual items featured in the book from that era. Moreover, each item is a unique and valuable piece, complete with a "Publication Certificate" issued by the editorial department.

Furthermore, the items for sale include secret products carefully selected from models that rarely appear on the market and exceptionally well-conditioned pieces. A unique feature is that these are only displayed to those who have registered as members of the LowBEAT Marketplace.
