The term is now commonly used to describe this type case. This Seiko is not a Cartier, but belongs to that dress spirit, in a two-tone Japanese interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does “two-tone” mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA two-tone watch combines two metal shades, here steel and gold. The brushed steel case is enhanced by a gold inner bezel, and the bracelet blends both tones. This combination, very much in vogue in the 1980s, brings an elegant contrast and pairs equally well with silver-toned and gold-toned Jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the advantages of a quartz watch?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA quartz watch offers greater precision than most mechanical watches and requires no winding: a battery powers it for several years. It is a reliable, hassle-free solution, ideal for everyday wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the bracelet adjustable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
