Seiko RE528S "Diskdream Music Box" Magic Motion Musical Wall Clock from Japan with Moving Figurines

The Japanese-exclusive RE528S Karakuri clock is a perfect example of Seiko’s elegant designs and attention to detail. This model is a member of the “Diskdream” series by Seiko, in which each clock features a dream-like faux disc music box theme with little figurines that appear to be controlling the music box. Every hour or when the demonstration button is activated, the two figurines below the clock face move together and “crank” the rotating disc behind them as one of 6 blissful melodies emerge in a music box-like sound. The LED light below the number “6” flashes every 2 seconds.

Notes: This is actually probably one of my personal favorite Seiko clocks. Between the high-quality sound, aesthetic design, and the subtle LED light on the dial…it’s a perfect 10 from me. Condition-wise, the clock has a few scratches and minor wear, most noticeably above the “12” on the case and on the right side of the case. Many of the scuffs, especially the ones on the black parts of the case, aren’t noticeable unless looked at directly in the light. I wanted to make sure I highlighted them anyway so that you knew they were there. Please look at all photos and watch the video for a demonstration, and let me know if you have any questions!
