Seiko Spirit: Vintage Tank Women's Gold-Plated Watch
This vintage Seiko watch from the Spirit line is an elegant women's watch with a Tank gold-plated case. Its delicate size — only 16mm wide — and its white dial with Roman numerals make it a refined dress watch, designed for slender wrists. Renowned for its meticulous finishing, the Spirit line here signs a sober and timeless piece, ideal for everyday wear as well as evening occasions.
The white dial is of great elegance: black Roman numerals arranged around the perimeter frame a central recess highlighted by a fine border, where the signatures « Seiko » and « Spirit » are inscribed. Two slender black hands indicate the hours and minutes in a clean aesthetic. A graphic and elegant dial, protected by a scratch-resistant Crystal sapphire crystal.
This Seiko watch is powered by the caliber 4N20, a Japanese quartz movement designed for Tank-shaped dress watches. It displays the hours and minutes with quartz precision. A quartz watch offers exceptional reliability and carefree use: a simple battery is enough to power it for several years, without winding or mechanical servicing.
With its 16mm case width and slim profile, this vintage watch is the epitome of a dress women's watch, perfect for a delicate wrist. The original dial and the Crystal sapphire crystal are in very fine condition; the gold plating shows a few light signs of wear, noted in full transparency. It is fitted on a handmade black lizard-style leather strap, non-original, with a steel Buckle buckle.
