Title Seiko 5 Automatic Day-Date Round Watch, Ref. 7S26-01V0 Introduction This timepiece from the Seiko 5 series presents a round case with a black dial, complemented by luminous baton hour markers and a day-date window positioned at the three o'clock position.

The watch is fitted with a newly replaced black leather strap (non-original), giving it a balanced, functional appearance consistent with everyday wear. Historical & Collector Value The Seiko 5 series was introduced in the 1960s and became known for offering automatic movements, day-date functionality, and water resistance at an accessible price point, embodying Seiko's approach to reliable, everyday mechanical watchmaking. The "5" designation refers to five key features originally associated with the line: automatic winding, day-date display, water resistance, a recessed crown at the four o'clock position, and a durable case and bracelet construction. This model, powered by the 7S26 automatic movement, reflects the design and engineering approach that made the Seiko 5 line a long-standing staple in Seiko's catalogue throughout the latter half of the 20th century and beyond.
