Vintage SEIKO Automatic 17 Jewels – Classic Japanese Dress Watch with Date, ref. 7005-6000 This is a distinguished vintage SEIKO Automatic wristwatch, powered by the reliable and celebrated caliber 7005 – a 17-jewel automatic movement featuring SEIKO's iconic Magic Lever winding system. A true icon of Japanese watchmaking from the late 1960s to early 1970s. The dial presents a beautiful silver sunburst finish, adorned with clean baton hour markers and a matching set of sword-style hands. The date window is positioned at 3 o'clock, adding practical functionality to an already elegant design. The text "SEIKO AUTOMATIC" and "17 JEWELS" are clearly printed on the dial, accompanied by the distinctive Magic Lever lightning bolt symbol – a hallmark of SEIKO's engineering pride during this era. The case back is engraved with "STAINLESS STEEL 7005-6000 WATERPROOF JAPAN-G" and serial number 081419, confirming its authenticity as a genuine Japanese-made SEIKO timepiece. The stainless steel construction gives this watch a solid and substantial presence on the wrist. The watch is paired with a stainless steel expansion (accordion-style) bracelet, which complements the overall vintage aesthetic and adds to the authentic period-correct charm of this piece. Condition: This SEIKO Automatic has been recently cleaned and is presented in good vintage condition. As a timepiece of its age, it may carry minor signs of wear consistent with its history, which only serves to authenticate its vintage character and heritage. These subtle traces of time tell the story of a watch that has journeyed through decades, and owning this piece means owning a genuine fragment of Japanese horological history – a time when SEIKO was redefining what automatic watchmaking could achieve.
