Seiko Creo — The classic charm of Roman numerals
This vintage Seiko Creo watch embraces timeless elegance. Its white dial adorned with black Roman numerals evokes the codes of classic dress watchmaking, where most ladies' watches of the era were content with simple hour markers. Clear, refined reading, with the allure of an antique jewel.
The bicolored round case, blending polished steel and gold, frames the dial with a fine gold-plated rehaut. This interplay of materials warms the whole and gives the piece that sought-after dress character found on Japanese watches from the late 1990s, halfway between an everyday accessory and a wrist jewel.
The flexible bicolored bracelet, with its fine striped links, follows the wrist fluidly and extends the piece's jewelled spirit. Powered by a Seiko quartz movement (caliber 1F21), the Creo offers complete ease of use — no winding, ready to wear every day.
A Japanese vintage women's watch in a delicate format, elegant and easy to wear, perfect for a slender wrist. Selected and authenticated by Atelier Victor, it is shipped internationally quickly and securely.
