This timepiece is a magnificent artifact from December 1978, as confirmed by the serial number 8D5704 .The Type II collection was developed by Seiko in the late 1970s to offer highly reliable, daily-wear quartz precision to the Japanese public following the initial era of luxury electronic watchmaking. It houses the dependable Caliber 7123, a technical soul engineered with robust metal components that reflect the uncompromised build quality of early Suwa quartz engineering.
The architecture is outstanding, featuring an angular stainless steel cushion case with brushed surfaces and polished contours that flows into a matching multi-link bracelet. The watch stands out due to its unique, smoky grey-brown sunburst dial accented by blocky white-filled stick indices, a bilingual English/Kanji day-date window at 3 o'clock, and the iconic applied single-quartz crystal crest. This professional-grade daily vintage instrument was created exclusively for the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM).
