An elegant two-tone vintage Seiko with a refined linen dial
This vintage Seiko watch, produced in 1996, embodies the understated elegance of Japanese dress watches from the 1990s. Its two-tone round case combines brushed steel across the case and lugs with a finely fluted gold-plated bezel, a textured detail that subtly catches the light and lends the piece a touch of jewelry-like refinement without excess.
The silver dial with linen finish is the heart of its character. This delicate texture, known as a "linen" dial, evokes the weave of fabric and brings rare visual depth to a watch of this level. The applied gilt baton indices and matching slender hands complete a clean, refined composition in the great tradition of the Japanese dress watch. The Seiko signature, discreet and centered, is enough to identify it.
Powered by the Seiko 5P31 caliber, a Japanese quartz movement renowned for its reliability and precision, this piece offers the practicality of quartz without sacrificing the charm of a traditional dress watch. Its ultra-thin 6.1mm profile allows the piece to slip effortlessly under a cuff.
Mounted on a black crocodile leather strap, this two-tone Seiko with a 32.5mm case offers a perfectly Unisex format, equally comfortable on the wrist of a man or a woman seeking an elegant and accessible dress watch. A carefully selected piece, authenticated and serviced by Atelier Victor. Fast and secure international shipping.
