This elegant timepiece embodies the technical perfection and minimalist luxury of the late 1980s. This Seiko Dolce- reference 7731-5040- is powered by the excellent Seiko Caliber 7731- a high-quality quartz movement built for superior timekeeping. The Dolce line was positioned as a premium dress watch in the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM)- featuring refined designs and reliable, accurate quartz engines.
The design is pure, sophisticated geometry. The watch utilizes a sleek, square/cushion-shaped gold-plated case which frames a clean, gold sunburst dial. The dial itself features minimalist stick indices and no seconds hand, creating a highly refined, uncluttered aesthetic that speaks volumes about its dress-watch intent. The compact quartz movement allows the case to remain slim and discreet on the wrist- a key characteristic of fine dress watches.
The case back confirms the reference and serial number, which dates the watch's production to March 1989 (930924)- placing it at the zenith of the premium quartz dress watch era. This is the perfect acquisition for a collector who appreciates Japanese engineering precision and the timeless elegance of a thin, gold-toned square dress watch.
