Product Description The Seiko 5 (Ref. 7S26-3040) is a 1990s automatic wristwatch that updates Seiko’s clean, practical design language with a bold, sunburst gold dial and integrated bracelet for a distinctly modern vintage look. Its champagne‑tone dial with concentric inner ring, applied round hour markers, and raised Seiko 5 logo delivers strong visual impact, while the rounded stainless‑steel case with seamless bracelet, discreet 4 o’clock crown, and framed day‑date window at 3 o’clock keep it comfortable and functional for everyday wear. ​ Historical and Collector Significance The 7S26‑3040 is powered by Seiko’s 21‑jewel 7S26 automatic caliber, introduced in the mid‑1990s and widely used across Seiko 5 and diver models for its durability, 21,600 vph beat rate, roughly 41‑hour power reserve, and low‑maintenance construction without hand‑winding or hacking. This reference marks the shift from earlier 7000‑series calibers to the modern Seiko 5 generation, pairing the classic formula of automatic winding, day‑date display, and robust stainless‑steel build with brighter dial colors and updated, integrated case geometry. Well‑preserved 7S26‑3040 examples with original gold dials and factory bracelets are increasingly valued by enthusiasts as accessible, entry‑level vintage Seiko 5 pieces that combine dependable mechanics with distinctive 1990s styling and an unmistakably retro wrist presence. ​ Specifications Brand: Seiko ​ Model: SEIKO 5 ​ Reference number: 7S26-3040 ​ Serial number: 023462 Movement: Automatic​ Day display: English and Spanish Case dimensions: Approx. 38 mm (excluding crown) ​ Bracelet material: Stainless steel​ Wrist Size and Condition Wrist size adjustment: Adjustable from approximately 16.8 cm to 18.2 cm by adding or removing links and changing the micro‑adjustment holes on the buckle; currently set at 17.5 cm (center position).
