Unisex, it can be worn equally well by a man or by a woman who appreciates watches with an original character. Its \u003cstrong\u003etonneau gold-plated case\u003c\/strong\u003e, with sculpted sides, houses two stacked dials. It measures 20mm (21mm with the crown) for a Lug-to-lug of 34mm and a thickness of 6.6mm. A slim, singular piece with a pronounced vertical presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003elight dial\u003c\/strong\u003e is structured around two independent registers. The upper one, with Arabic numerals, and the lower one, framed by a railroad minute track, each display a distinct time. The \u003cstrong\u003eblued hands\u003c\/strong\u003e, fine and elegant, stand out against the silvered background. The Seiko signature occupies the center of the dial, with the Noie line’s “N” logo at its sides. A travel watchmaking design, as legible as it is unusual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside beat \u003cstrong\u003etwo independent quartz movements\u003c\/strong\u003e, one per dial, each driven by its own crown. This is what sets this Dual Time apart from a simple GMT: the two displays are completely independent and can be set separately. The movements of this example have been checked by our watchmaker and the batteries replaced before shipment. Seiko has not published a precision specification for these calibers: we therefore make no numerical claim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the wrist, the piece embraces \u003cstrong\u003edressy originality\u003c\/strong\u003e. The warm gold plating and the tonneau vertical silhouette create a watch with character, here подчеркlined by a dark brown \u003cstrong\u003ecrocodile-style leather\u003c\/strong\u003e strap. This strap is not original; it is fitted with a Buckle buckle. The slim 12mm Lug width guides the choice of replacement straps toward narrower widths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThree points to note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe watch has two movements and two independent crowns: each dial is set separately, to display two distinct time zones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe case is gold-plated, not solid, and shows light signs of wear, disclosed with complete transparency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo original precision specification is published by Seiko for these calibers.

You keep your home time on one dial and that of another time zone on the second: practical for travel, international work, or to stay in sync with a loved one abroad. Each dial is adjusted via its own crown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does this Seiko have two crowns?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause it houses two independent quartz movements, one per dial. Each crown controls its own display, making it possible to set the two time zones separately. It is a rarer and more accomplished construction than a simple GMT mechanism with a single hand, and that is the very horological appeal of this piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the \"N\" logo on the dial mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe small gold hexagonal \"N\" logo is the signature of the Seiko Noie line, a dress collection from the brand. It is an original element, characteristic of this range, confirming its belonging and authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this Seiko Dual Time water-resistant?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. Water resistance is never guaranteed on a vintage watch: the original gaskets have aged and the caseback pressure is no longer what it was on day one. Avoid the shower, the pool, and the sea. A simple contact with rainwater, however, does not pose any difficulty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it a rather masculine or feminine watch?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts tonneau case, 20 mm wide, makes it perfectly Unisex. It can be worn equally well by a man or a woman who appreciates dress watches with a measured size and original character. Its elongated vertical silhouette gives it a stronger presence than its width might suggest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Seiko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54193207345489,"sku":"1E20-3A00 521928","price":320.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/8576\/2597\/files\/montre-seiko-noie-dual-time-1e20-3a00-plaque-or-tonneau-1995-atelier-victor-1.jpg?v=1783982601","url":"https:\/\/ateliervictor.co\/en\/products\/vintage-seiko-noie-dual-time-gold-plated-tonneau-1995","provider":"Atelier Victor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
