An 1981 Seiko Credor 7371-0020, extra-thin steel and silver-tone dial
This Seiko Credor 7371-0020 dates from 1981. Its round steel case, with curved lugs, measures 22.5mm in diameter, 26.5mm lug-to-lug, and just 4.5mm thick: an extra-thin profile, in a women's watch format.
The silver-tone dial is encircled by a fine gold-tone ring. It features fine baton markers, gold-tone hands for the hours and minutes, and centre seconds. The gold-tone Credor emblem and signature are positioned below 12 o'clock.
The watch is powered by the Seiko 7371 quartz calibre, made in Japan. The original steel crown is set with a cabochon and sits on the right side; the caseback is steel. The mineral crystal is rated 8/10.
It is fitted with a handmade black leather strap, fastened by a steel pin buckle, on an 11mm lug width.
