Description from the seller
Seiko 5 Automatic 7009-821A – September 1980 – Serviced – Stainless Steel – Italian/English Day-Date
A fine example of early 1980s Japanese watchmaking, this original Seiko 5 Automatic ref. 7009-821A combines reliability, timeless design, and everyday practicality in one of Seiko's most successful automatic watch families.
Manufactured in September 1980 (serial number 090078), this watch features a distinctive angular stainless steel case paired with an integrated bracelet, reflecting the clean geometric aesthetics that characterized the transition from the late 1970s into the early 1980s.
The original silver-white dial with a subtle satin-brushed finish offers an elegant and minimalist appearance, enhanced by applied baton hour markers, luminous hands, and a practical day-date display with dual Italian and English language indication.
At its heart is the renowned Seiko Calibre 7009 automatic movement, celebrated for its durability and reliability. The watch has been serviced and is in working order.

Seller's Story
A lifelong vintage and design enthusiast, I’m fascinated by objects with geometric shapes — triangular, pyramidal, spherical — that you can touch, use, and truly experience. They tell the story of evolving style from futurism to modern times. I collect and offer vintage plastics, electronics, vinyl records, and table or wall clocks (flip, quartz, transistor, mechanical).
Every piece I sell is tested, cleaned, and carefully presented. I don’t believe in “untested” items — everything I list truly works. My photos and descriptions are detailed to ensure transparency and buyer confidence.
