SEIKO TYPE II [7546-8000] Silver Dial Men's Quartz Wristwatch, Working Condition The "SEIKO TYPE II [7546-8000]" is a vintage quartz men's wristwatch manufactured by Suwa Seikosha 諏訪精工舎in the late 1970s. It is part of the "TYPE II" series, which Seiko developed to popularize quartz technology for the general public.

Combining design and practicality, these watches feature attention to detail, such as the color-coded day of the week display (Saturday: blue, Sunday: red). They are highly sought-after on the pre-owned market, fetching high prices depending on their condition. This watch truly symbolizes a turning point in Seiko's history, created to bring the "quartz revolution" to the masses.
