Not completely sure about the history of the Seiko Super Track Meet or origins of this polo, but if I had to guess this was a precursor competition to the Seiko Golden Grand Prix, a track meet held in Japan. The shirt is from 2004 and is unworn and new old stock quality. It is sized as medium. I believe this to be a very rare shirt, especially outside of Japan.
