Seiko Lucent vintage: a round two-tone steel and gold-plated watch
This Seiko Lucent vintage watch is an elegant dress piece with a round two-tone case, combining steel and gold-plated metal, and a clean white dial. Its sculpted lugs and interplay of tones give it a refined, timeless character. In a versatile size, it can be worn on both a man’s and a woman’s wrist. A understated and distinguished Japanese watch, ideal for everyday wear as well as evening occasions.
The white dial highlights slender applied gold baton hour markers, as well as the « Seiko » and « Lucent » signatures. Sleek gold-toned hands sweep across the dial, in perfect harmony with the gold-plated accents of the case and bracelet. A crisp, luminous reading, in the great tradition of Japanese dress watches.
This Seiko is powered by the 5E21 quartz caliber, a reliable analog movement from the Lucent line. It runs on a battery and continues the legacy of Seiko, a pioneer of quartz with the Astron in 1969. A controlled movement, guaranteeing precise daily operation without burdensome mechanical maintenance.
With its 31mm case and very slim profile (5.6mm), and its round two-tone shape, this vintage watch offers an elegant and versatile size on the wrist of both a man and a woman — a true Unisex watch. The original dial and hands are in beautiful condition, as is the Crystal crystal (8/10). It retains its original two-tone steel and gold-plated bracelet, with its original Buckle.
