This elegant timepiece embodies the technical supremacy and minimalist aesthetic of the early 1980s. This Seiko Quartz, reference 6431-5080, is often associated with the high-end Chariot sub-brand and is defined by its classic rectangular "Tank" style case. The gold-plated case and clean dial scream quiet luxury and reliable precision.
The movement inside is the dependable Seiko Caliber 6431, a robust quartz engine that provides excellent grab-and-go accuracy (rated to $\pm 15 \text{ seconds per month}$). This caliber was a core element of Seiko's high-volume, high-quality production in the 1980s, confirming its lasting reliability. The compact movement ensures the watch remains wonderfully slim and discreet on the wrist- a key characteristic of a proper dress watch.
Aesthetically, the watch is a study in sophistication. The dial is uncluttered, featuring simple baton or Roman indices (depending on the exact variant), and a refined, two-hand display (no seconds hand) that emphasizes the purity of timekeeping. The case back confirms the Stainless Steel Back (ST. STEEL BACK) and its JDM (Japan) origin. The serial number suggests a production date around 1983- placing it at the zenith of the premium quartz dress watch era.
