A Technological Marvel is what I would summarize this beauty of a Seiko Dolce 9441-5000 from 1980 with the Seiko Twin-Quartz Cal. 9441 Caliber with dual-quartz crystal at 32 KHz + 40 KHz and ±20 seconds/year accuracy :O

This is a great Vintage Seiko Quartz watch from the Spirit lineup from 1993 with reference 5E31-6E20. Seiko released various "pair watches" where there was a bigger men-size watch (this model) and a small female watch - that you could purchase seperate or together.

This Vintage Spirit Watch has a beautiful yellow "woven" dial where a small pattern (like a woven rope) is very delicately creating a relief on the dial - beautiful up close! To enhance this it has a domed mineral crystal and the case is made of stainless steel in 33mm with a gold plated bezel (TSSGP).

It houses the high-quality Seiko Cal. 5E31 caliber which has an insane accuracy of ±20 seconds/year - which was especially a great spec 30 years ago. This complete package didn't come cheap - the SCDW011 was ¥40,000 in 1993.

Another Vintage Seiko Watch that always is gone quickly - This classic Seiko Spirit with reference 7N43-7B70 shines because of the beautiful white graphite dial - combined with the bold case shape it wears relatively big and comes on the original bracelet which fits up to ~18cm wrists.

It's a JDM (Japan Domestic Market model) so it has Kanji/English day indication and it is working perfectly with a fresh battery placed. Watch has a quartz movement cal. 7N43 and it was fitted with a new battery in November 2024. The watch, case and strap have been ultrasonically cleaned and are therefore completely neat again. The watch has scratches and visible signs of wear overall but is still in great condition.

This is model SCDQ001 from the 1994 Catalog and cost 25,000 Yen back then.

A fan favourite and rightfully so: clean design, good specifications, solid reliability and very affordable! This is the Seiko Spirit Quartz Watch with reference 7N43-7B60 produced in 1993. I think it's one of our best sellers, we've sold 10 of this exact reference this year!

This model has a beautiful thin round steel case and white sunburst dial. It has a Kanji/English day indication because it is a JDM (Japan Domestic Market Model) made for the Japanese market.

The crystal has been replaced by a new, fresh, scratch-free XMF Sternkreuz. Watch is worn (especially the bracelet) but still looks great. I've placed a fresh battery, watch runs on time and quickset works.

This is model SCDQ005 from the 1994 Catalog and cost 15,000 Yen back then.

If I didn't tell you that that is not the original bracelet from Seiko, you probably would not have noticed. Sometimes a match is just too perfect!

Another Great Vintage Seiko Watch with reference 9021-5130 made in 1985. This Seiko Chronos comes in a 28mm SGP rectangular case. I really like the very thin (7mm!) case with beautiful smooth corners and bevelled bezel shape.

The Chronos was mainly a mid-entry series, but this was the top of the line model WJB984 which was a high-end Chronos model costing 43,000 yen back in 1985!

I really like the Seiko Chronos range - and this one is also a fan-favourite :) The Seiko Chronos watches have really nice designs, clean looks, JDM models only and have very decent specifications at it's price point. They were also mass-produced so they're not scarce and can be picked up for a fair price.

This is a perfect example! The Vintage Seiko Chronos Watch 5H23-7D40 was produced in 1991 in a sleek round stainless steel case with white silver dial and black numerals. This concerns model SBMF013 from the 1990 Seiko catalogue, which cost ¥14,300 at the time - paired here with an aftermarket mesh bracelet.

This Seiko Chariot Vintage Quartz Watch with reference 9021-5170 produced in 1986 became popular the last couple years with the surge of interest in 'Tank' shaped watches.

Seiko heavily inspired some line-ups to European Model Watches as European Influence crawled into Japan and became a hype, and this vintage seiko watch is a great example! This Seiko Chariot is a JDM (Japanese Domestic Market Model) and has a beautiful 28mm SGP stepped case with clean gold-coloured dial with a beautiful printed pattern.

The battery has been replaced and it is working perfectly, paired with a leather brown strap. There's a small discolouration spot between 3 and 4 on the dial, fortunately not very visible on the wrist!

More about the suede watch strap soon, btw 👀

It might not be everyone's cup of tea but this Vintage Seiko Dolce is peak-seiko innovation, quality, style and craftmanship. Personally, I think the Seiko Dolce range is overlooked and has many gems - this one included. 1981 agrees with me, because the price tag of this model was a whopping ¥100,000 back in 1981!

The dial is what catches the eye immediately with a gold-leaf pattern housed in a 6mm flat octagonal shaped SGP case. It also has a sapphire crystal - which was not common at all back then. Last but not least the crown has a black-stone cabuchon set and you can see some western (*cough Cartier*) influence done in Seiko Fashion here.

I don't normally do pre-1970's Seiko but gladly make an exception for this one. This Seiko Champion Calender 860 is in great shape - both cosmetically and mechanically. The sunburst dial shows no major damages, the case is great and still has it's sharp edges, still has the original signed 'S' crown. It was produced from 1964 to 1966 powered by a 17-jewel Seikosha Diashock manual movement operating at 18,000 bph - making this over 60 years old.

The Seiko Champion 860 Calendar is a refined entry-level 1960s dress watch with a stainless steel-plated case, slim bezel, silver sunburst dial, sharp stick indices, dauphine hands, and a framed date window. It's also remarkabley large compared to post-1970 sizes.

If you're in the market for a true vintage dress watch - this might be the one for you!

Beautiful Vintage Seiko Quartz Watch with Reference 7N01-HZB0. This is an unknown and not very often seen JDM (Japanese Domestic Market Model) release.

It has some amazing features: starting with the gold-leaf pattern dial that is gorgeous! The watch has a curved hardlex crystal for that vintage look. It has a 32mm SGP case and there is a black-stone cabouchon in the crown. A perfect dress watch for a fair price!

The watch comes on the original seiko black leather strap and original box.

This is model SZLJ155 originally sold for ¥16,500

Absolutely stunning Vintage Seiko Dress watch with reference 5E32-6A30 from 1999.

This JDM (Japanese Domestic Market Model) Seiko Dress watch has some amazing features starting with the 'gold dust' dial that is absolutely beautiful.

It's part of the Spirit series but don't let that fool you: The watch has the high-end quartz caliber 5E32 that has ±20 seconds/year accuracy, cased in a 32mm sized SGP case. I've paired this dress watch with a genuine tejus lizard strap from Bulova from the 70s to make it very elegant.

This is model SCEX022 costing a whopping ¥35000 back in 1999!

If you're looking for a great automatic vintage watch in perfectly working condition, this Vintage Seiko Lord Matic LM with reference 5606-8031 might be perfect: It is fully serviced and in good cosmetic condition!

Personally, I think this is one of the best vintage watches in this price bracket - basically getting "Grammar of Design" on a budget!

Seiko Lord Matic 'LM' watches were a entry-range automatic watch in the 1970 and placed below King Seiko or Grand Seiko, but still offers amazing specifications.

This Vintage Seiko has a beautiful silver sunburst dial, mirror-polished inner bezel ring, applied polished indices and beautiful black hands. It's a JDM model (Japanese Domestic Market) so has Kanji day wheel (aswell as english).

It comes in a 36mm stainless steel case with relatively large lug-to-lug of 41mm paired on the original seiko bracelet ref. XAA582. A bracelet extender has been placed for a wrist size up to 18cm. The dial has small black dots and the LM badge is smudged, the crystal has scratches visible.

The watch has been fully serviced: dismantled, cleaned, oiled, regulated. The day-date quickset star has been replaced, something that is often broken. It runs perfectly at 2s/day. I'm offering a 3 month warranty on the movement and comes in a black suede pouch.

This was model LBA550 costing 21000 Yen back in 1975!
