+====== Seiko 6600 ======
+The **6600** series was a family of mechanical watch movements from [[Seiko]] in the 1960's.
+Produced from [[1961]], the 6600 family was the basis of many later Seiko movements, including the [[Seiko 6100|6100 family]]. It ran at 18,000 A/h and used an [[automatic]] winding mechanism, Seiko's [[Magic Lever]]. The family was available in varying jewel counts 17, 19, or 21.
+The first member of the lineup was the [[1961]] 6601A. Available with 17, 19, or 21 jewels and measuring 5.45 mm high, this basic movement nevertheless had a sophisticated automatic winding system. It was replaced by the 6601B later with unknown modifications. The 6606B and 6619A were launched in [[1965]] with a non-[[quickset]] day and date wheel and 21 jewels. It was not until the [[1968]] 6602B that Seiko reached a 45 hour power reserve, and this movement was 1 mm thinner.
