A Seiko from 1994, gold-plated oval case and Arabic numeral dial
The gold-plated case, with an elongated oval shape, measures 21mm wide by 7mm thick and 33.5mm lug-to-lug. Its sides curve through to the lugs, which take the strap on a 12mm lug width; the gold-tone fluted crown sits at 3 o'clock. The caseback is steel.
The white dial follows the shape of the case. Twelve black Arabic numerals, in a cursive design, follow its outline; the Seiko signature is placed below 12 o'clock and a gold-tone emblem marks 6 o'clock. The blue hands stand out against this light background. Dial and hands are original.
The watch is powered by the Seiko 1F21 calibre, a small 2-jewel quartz movement designed for the brand's ladies' watches. The serial number engraved on the caseback dates production to September 1994.
It is fitted on a brown crocodile leather strap, closed by a gold-tone pin buckle. At 21mm wide, it wears on a slim wrist, on its own or paired with bracelets.
