Atelier Note
A 21mm steel oval, a white dial with cursive Arabic numerals and blue hands, on black lizard leather. A Seiko from June 1994. Checked, delivered with its Atelier Victor invoice serving as a certificate.
A 1994 Seiko, a steel oval on black lizard leather
The polished steel case forms an elongated oval 21mm wide, 33.5mm lug-to-lug and 7mm thick. Its sides curve into the lugs, which hold the strap with a 12mm lug width. The fluted steel crown is positioned at 3 o'clock; the caseback is steel.
The white dial echoes the oval of the case. Twelve black Arabic numerals, in a cursive script, follow its outline; the Seiko signature appears below 12 o'clock and a gold-tone emblem, the only warm touch of colour, marks 6 o'clock. The blue baton hands and centre seconds stand out against this light background. Dial and hands are original.
The watch is powered by the Seiko 1F21 calibre, a 2-jewel quartz movement intended for the brand's ladies' watches. The serial number engraved on the caseback dates its production to June 1994.
It is fitted with a black lizard leather strap, with fine scales, fastened by a steel pin buckle. The black of the leather and the white of the dial frame the steel of the case. At 21mm wide, it suits a slim wrist, for everyday wear as well as the evening.

Frequently asked questions
What wrist size is this watch suitable for?
At 21mm wide, 33.5mm Lug-to-lug and 7mm thick, it is a ladies' format, suitable for slim to medium wrists.
How is this watch dated?
By its serial number, engraved on the caseback. At Seiko, the first digit indicates the year within the decade and the second the month: 46•••• here corresponds to June 1994, a period consistent with the 1F21 calibre.
Is the strap original?
No. The black lizard leather strap and its Buckle steel pin buckle were fitted as replacements; the Lug width of 12mm, a common size, makes it easy to change. The dial, hands and crown are original.
How should a steel case be cared for?
A soft, dry cloth is sufficient for routine care. It is preferable to avoid abrasive products and to keep the leather strap away from water.
How do delivery and payment work?
The piece is shipped with tracking and insurance by a trusted carrier, to a collection point or to your home depending on the destination. Delivery is free.
